This is another dress I believe is probably from the 1970s or 80s, but due to the shape and overall style is perfect for recreating 1940s/50s looks. Obviously the way I've styled it here is not a faithful reproduction of a style from any particular decade so much as it is just a general vintage look, but with the right accessories and styling it could look very authentic. In the future I'm planning on changing the buttons as I think a different set could lend an even more authentic mid-century look to the dress.

I'm still wearing these boots with almost everything; they're an absolute joy to wear and a real statement piece to own. In particular I like the texture of the leather over woolly tights - and that has the double benefit of keeping me nice and warm in the winter. Of course the jacket has also been a real favourite ever since I found it, or rather I think it found me in rather the same way that the wand chooses the wizard. I love the colour, the shape, and the texture, and it goes with so much in my wardrobe. The faux fur collar is removable but even though I've owned jackets with similar collars before and I've almost always worn them exclusively without the fur, I've yet to remove the fur from this one as apparently the jacket has the power to make me appreciate features that I didn't used to like. In short, this might actually be the most perfect jacket ever.
