, , , , , , , , , , , , ,
    When a woman plans that special day where she is uniting with the one she loves in front of...others she loves, she wants to look as wonderful as she feels. And while on my wedding day I hope to be able to master this balancing act between looking and feeling, with just my happy glow...In reality, I know that it will be all in the details. I will want to look and feel my very best, on one of the happiest days of my life. Here are two Vintage looks I adore!

    The back of this dress is do die for! OMG! How elegant and yet sexy with a vintage feel to it! Per-fec-tion!

    After all...when it comes to looking the most beautiful you have ever looked in your whole entire life, ever, on this planet. On the day you celebrate love itself....why not stick with what you love!

    And now I just HAVE to post a picture of Nicole Richie on her wedding day. Why? Because her dress was FABULOUS! And she looked so happy!

Theda Bara the 1920's Original Vamp

Labels:

, , , , , , , , , , , , ,
    Theda Bara was an American silent film actress, one of the most popular of her era and one of cinemas earliest sex symbols. Nicknamed "The Vamp" because she played so many femme fatale roles, which became a popular slang term for a sexually predatory woman.
    Theda completed more than 40 films, but complete prints of only 6 still exist.
    Married in 1921 to British-born American film director, Charles Brabin. It is claimed that her husband didn't consider it proper for his wife to have a career, and so Theda didn't make any more appearances after her marriage. Theda has a star on the Hollywood walk of fame.

    Irene Castle was a renowned ballroom dancer who some believed started the "bob" trend when she cut her hair off in 1915. You can just see in her expression, like she is inspired and is going to create something that will blow your mind. I love how her eyes say so much! photo from: http://www.zimbio.com/1920%27s+Hairstyles
    Louise Brooks again. She is breathtaking, I just cant get enough of her, there is something about her. photo from: heartofshakespeare.tumblr.com
    As you can see, not all women choose to have "the bob"and yet still their style is very distinct and fitting with the times. photo from: adorevintage.proboards.com

    Flappers had a major focus on makeup. They traditionally had dark eye makeup, and dark lipstick that accentuated a cupids bow. I have read that some women for pictures even wore their black eye liner on their lips in order to make for a more drastic contrast in coloring. Very fun look!

1920's Fashion

Labels:

, , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,
    During this era U.S. history was changing...World War I had ended and women were granted the right to vote... =>Enter the Flapper! She was a liberal and free-thinking woman who wore short skirts, sheer stockings, had a short hair cut, which was also known as "the bob" which many times was styled in a finger waive. And she wore drastically dark makeup with art deco jewelry. The Flapper was considered youthful and boyish, as they abandoned curves and restricted corsets for a more loose fitting dress with strait lines. Flappers were pioneers in many ways, and fashion was just used (as it was intended to be) as an outlet for expression. I think for the flapper; her style was an expression of change, freedom, and liberation. She herself allowed her fashion to be an expression of free thinking. It was the fashion that flipped upside down the idea of femininity and allowed women to take control over what it expresses about them as individuals and as American women.
