I love pairing something sweet (like this heavenly lace 1960's dress from the amazing Female Hysteria Vintage) with something a bit more strange and dark like this incredible velvet cape. I found it at a random garage sale that happened to have a few pieces of impeccable vintage hiding in the corner. I'm not sure what era it's from but it looks like it could be quite old, possibly from the 1930's. Not a bad find for only $20! The 1940's-style heels are from a brand called Aris Allen that makes shoes specifically for swing dancing. I'm always excited to find shoes in a vintage style because my big feet (size 10!) make it hard to wear the real thing. I'm sure my fellow large-footed sisters share my pain!

Wow, awesome mural and an awesome outfit!
These photos are so fun! Were they taken on a film camera? You look amazing :)
I love this look. And the shoes are so sweet! I take a 9 1/2 or 10 in US sizes and so rarely see nice vintage shoes in my size. I have been envious of your Fletcher by Lyell shoes for the longest time now because I love the vintage look...if you ever decide to part with them...
I love how natural you are in front of the camera! :) That alone deserve a how-to post on its own! teehee gorgeous shots, last one is so cute.
Amazing photos! I love your cape

Your photographs always make me chuckle. Were you a model in another life? (No, seriously...) Love the cape. It instantly reminds me of the cape Spanish matadors wear.
such wonderful photos and I love how you mixed and matched everything here!

It warms my heart to know that you have big feet. Is that weird? I wear a size 11. :)
The heels are beautiful, by the way.
