I love looking at photos from the past for outfit inspirations. I have become increasingly in love with a 1940s mixed with Victorian look. Simple and clean lines, basic color palette, and plenty of lace, ruffles, and bow details. The first two photos are hair inspirations. *putting curlers in my hair tonight* And I have a blouse almost like the one worn in the first photo, not an antique or vintage unfortunately, it's actually Max Azria, but I'm delighted to see a real life vintage inspiration!
