Flashback | Photographer Nina Leen
Nina Leen, best known as one of the first woman photographers for LIFE Magazine, is NOT solely a fashion photographer. From my research, she seems to have kept to herself, however her photos tell much of her talent and range.
Read more on her.

Vintage Inspiration | Yellow Dress & Black Bow
A few days ago I posted images of a blouse I flipped. If you missed it, click on over here.

Creating an obnoxiously large & contrasting bow would add great detail to the blouse. Make it removable for those days when you want to go under the radar.
Me: Hey, what do you think about this thing on her arm?
loverBoy*: I’m not sure, what is it?
Me: I’m not sure myself.
loverBoy*: A corsage?
Me: Perhaps. Well either way, I’m going to start wearing netting over my face.

Vintage Swimwear
I’m a swim/bathing suit aaaaddict. At the beginning of this year, I’d already purchased 2 suits. But of course, I’ve gotten rid of some. Check out why, here.
So rummaging through the world wide web (does anyone call it that anymore) I found the cutest vintage suits. Mind you these suits are our present day standard for a dress. No kidding.
Still, I love them the same.
