I decide to put together my own summer flapper flower child look. I paired an embroidered 1920s or 30s blouse, with my favorite chatter blossom flower crown. Then I added an armful of Bakelite, a 1930s crochet purse,
and a 1940s style skirt from Jitterbuggin that looks super cute but admittedly doesn't match the era.
It's a little hard to see in my pictures but the blouse has really amazing detail. It's a really fun summer outfit. Now I'm all ready for flapper Woodstock.
OH! Splendid post! I've always had a true love for peasant blouses of beautiful gauzey fabric and rich, detailed embroidery. Ever since I saw Neysa Mcmein in one in the 20s I had to have one, but I still don't. I didn't want someone accusing me of sporting the 1970s look. You're ensemble doesn't look '70s, is inspiring and lovely and I should just get over it and make one of my own anyway. And great crown! The colors of the flowers all together sends me! Is that cornflower in there? I adore cornflower!
ReplyDeleteIt is cornflower. I love that too. I also wanted to avoid a 70s look not my fave era lol

Magnificent outfit! You wear hair flowers and crowns so well. Of all the looks of the 1920s, the boho style is by far my favourite and the one that I'd be most apt to wear nowadays from that decade.
ReplyDeleteSuper happy 4th of July wishes!
