I had just boughten a skirt almost exactly like the girl's on the left and realized this picture had been taken way back when. I decided to style this vintage inspired skirt but put my own twist on it. Something light and airy on top like this white gauze top I got in Mexico tucked into the corduroy skirt. On my feet, my favourite fringe-y moccasin boots that make me want to prance, prance, prance around, fringe blowing in the wind. I love short mod style mini skirts for the summer. Canadian winters are long and brutal, so for the less than a handful of months that my legs can see the sun I'll let them. This outfit totally fits in with the whole 60's / 70's trend that's so in right now and I'm so glad because I'm totally in love!
Old pictures and clothes can always evoke feelings of nostalgia, even for a time never lived. Looking at this photograph I can feel myself transported to the point in time when it was taken. But what those girls are talking about, or the rationale for what's in the photograph, we'll never know, but it's always fun to wonder and dig within the depths of your imagination! Vintage inspired clothes or even vintage clothes themselves are some of my favourite things. I have such an appreciation for all things of the past and love when they can be resurfaced again because with it there's so much history attached and probably a great story too!
