    A Look Back at Summer

    1 comment / Outfits

    One of my favourite 1950s styled outfits is this ensemble. It just screams summer! I wish I could step out of this cold October evening and place myself in the middle of June... Thank goodness my sister convinced me to photograph it and waited for me to set myself up with all the props. Have you noticed the J. D. Salinger book, archival polish "Film" magazine and 1950s Kigu powder compact? Well it all makes for a pretty authentic set up if I do say so myself:) Below and above are the results!
