I find it hard to believe that noone knew about Vivian Mayers talent before her death. She was such a great photographer with an eye for details and humour.
Thank you all :). The outfit is a cardigan, a sleeveless shirt and an elastic belt. Nothing to special.
Actually I spent at least one hour under the dryer. I set it with damp hair, using pincurls and some rollers, but somehow it didn´t dry properly. I´ll just stay with my pin curls over night...
According to my man I got a few stares on the street yesterday. But on the other hand I got so many lovely comments from friends and family. Especially my m-i-l and her mother ("I had shoes just like that back then!") seemed to love it. I wore a black shirt and cardigan, elastic belt with...
