This thread is fun! Keep posting ladies!
Lauren, WHO is the gorgeous creature on your right?
White rayon suit from Fashion Originators Guild. So sad this didn't fit anymore- it was one of my very favorites!

Miss Golightly, you need not worry about the dress not fitting perfectly, you look positively sweet!

That's my ex. We're still friends :) I actually found the Lounge because of his recommendation!
Oh! You still look as lovely as ever, but if that's an old pic, he may not. Maybe he's gained weight and lost his hair by now. But he looks dashing in that frozen moment!

HA! I actually haven't seen him for quite a while, but he still looked relatively the same when I saw him last :) Though he's more indie rock than vintage these days. This must have been... 2005 maybe? Was the year before the Classic Style magazine launch at the Queen Mary event.

Thanks for the compliments, Ladies! Miss Golightly, I love the light blue and gold together! It's so fun to have great outerwear to set off the dress!

Wahine - thank you - I'm a bit lost for words - such a fantastic compliment - thank you!

BoPeep - thanks so much! I've just realised that the blue coat was the very first vintage piece I ever bought - it was in a pile of coats in Grandma Takes a Trip in Sydney - it was love at first sight! I always knew I loved the clothes from the 50's/60's but this was the first time I thought that maybe I could wear vintage - this was around 2003 but my love for vintage has only taken off properly in the last three years or so.

Ahh gosh, you are all so lovely!!

BoPeep, that dress is the perfect blend of elegance and vampiness... I absolutely adore it.

Miss Golightly, you actually bear quite a resemblance to your namesake. You have the same subtle elegance and sleek early 60s style as Audrey. Lovely!

Miss G - you actually look like a hybrid of Audrey and Vivien Leigh. Beautiful.

Drappa - you look adorable, so pretty. I love the colour of the dress on you.

Lauren - You make it look so effortless! You're one of my inspirations!

Well done to all the other ladies i have not commented on, you're all stunners!!

This thread is really inspiring. I wish I had something cuter to contribute (that wasn't taken with a camera phone :eek: ) but what can you do? I stole my avatar from this pic:

Thanks, Miss Sofia :D
I just finished this playsuit and I think it's now one of my very favorite things in my closet. Even though I made it, I guess it could be considered one of my best. :)
