What I Wore This Week – My Everyday Vintage Style

Today I have a roundup of everyday outfits for you on, well….. a few weeks actually! Life it seems got in  the way and so this week you will get double the fashion!

The weather has started to get quite warm not as we approach the start of summer here in  Australia. My outfit choices are beginning to reflect this as I have not been wearing capes or jackets almost at all anymore, they ended up being taken off almost immediately, but I continued to try to wear them! And sleeves are definitely on the way out at the time I write this!

As it warms up I am forced o think about my summer wardrobe. And I am feeling g a little lackluster about it to be honest. I feel that my style has evolved since last summer and I am wanting to replace lots of items in it!

I am being inspired by the beach and resort wear looks of the 1920’s and 30’s. I’m thinking beach pajamas, long flowing skirts and floppy hats! I am thinking of giving myself a challenge to make and create some new pieces in the next few weeks before the summer really begins!

I am gathering inspiration right now for all the fabulous outfits I imagine to be in my future wardrobe, and I think that I might even share them in the next post! So stay tuned if you want to see what I am lusting after this season and what I may create!

    Everything looks lovely!

    BTW, you made me a 30s repro skirt and I have to apologize for not getting back to you about how wonderful it is — the honest truth is that my husband made off with the package with the aim of putting it under the Christmas tree . . . so there’s just a brief delay . . .

    • Evelyn says:

      Hello Catherine! How funny!! Well nothing like a present you know you will like under the tree! I hope you love it ands enjoy wearing it!

    Oh my goodness, every single one of these outfits is impeccable! You really do live and breathe vintage everyday, with considerable finesse. Please keep the inspiration coming – I’m sure that even if you’re not looking forward so much to your summer wardrobe, your readers will love it!

    • Evelyn says:

      Hi Porcelina! Well thanks! I get so much inspiration from the people I follow and the things I surround myself with. So if someone finds inspiration from my own outfits, that’s just wonderful!
