AUTHENTIC TRUE VINTAGE DAY – WEAR AT ITS BEST!
I’ve shown a circle skirt or two before. Here’s one of my favorites! In a farm theme print, with colors that segue into Fall. Novelty prints on old fabrics are wonderful!!
Coral color is a favorite of mine. This blouse is not really old (1970’s or maybe 1960’s). I dyed it, because I had other blouses of the same hue. Turned out a PERFECT match for this skirt!
Soft cotton from years of wear and washing – I believe that the skirt is home sewn, but very well. It has an inside tab at the waist that buttons, with two choices for size. At the sides, there are tabs that pull through two rings, allowing you to tighten the waist to fit. One side pocket.
Simple design, easy wear. I really love the adjustability of the waistline.
The print shows horses and wagons and trees, a barn. I wear this…

It’s June, it’s hot as hell (too hot & humid to put jeans on) and I’m looking for a summer wardrobe. I won’t wear shorts or the dreaded Capri pants (they make me look short & stubby), nobody wants to put jeans on when it’s 88 degrees. And Ponte knit slacks look out of place at a BBQ

Voila’ – your answer! A sleeveless (or short-sleeved, or halter) blouse and mid-century midi-length skirt. I think it makes you look taller (judge the skirt hem carefully) and is cool and carefree.

No worries. 3/4 sleeves are just as good and, really, more interesting.
