CLASSIC TRUE VINTAGE WOOL COATS, LIGHTENING UP FOR THE END OF WINTER

CLASSIC TRUE VINTAGE WOOL COATS, LIGHTENING UP FOR THE END OF WINTER

Two stylish coats with flattering lines. I always love a nipped waist. The style on the left, I believe, is from the fifties but could have been a bit earlier. The coat on the right is from the early 1970’s.

Still wool, which we’re needing in many places yet, but in lighter-weight colors that can make us feel like swinging into Spring before too long . . . . . . . . . . . . .

From the Shoe Museum in Mexico City, these shoes were specially made in celebration of the coronation of Queen Elizabeth the Second of Great Britain, in 1953. Special decorations on the vamps . . . . . .

It’s still plenty cold outside, so over the next two weeks I’ll be showing the last of my beautiful winter coats. The photos I was able to get from the shoe museum will be interspersed with them – lovely examples of near-new footwear from about 1920 – 1970.
