Iron Orchid Vintage

The Red Spectator Shoes

Instead of reaching for a pair of tall boots, I decided to kick up my retro-casual look a notch by adding a cute pair of heels. I get a lot of questions and comments about these shoes. Unfortunately, I didn't get them online, so I would have no idea where to begin referring you; but if you find a pair, I just know you'll enjoy them, too! They go with so many more outfits that I ever thought they would. These jeans, by Leifsdottir, are a high waist cut (and by high waist, I mean up to one's natural waist), and off-the-rack tailored for an ankle length.

Day 21: Poised to be Casual, Vintage Ferragamo

My usual photo spot is all covered in sun! Today is poised to be an easy and casual day. I've been aching to wear this wonderful vintage scarf that I picked up in the summer-time, so I doubled it up and bloused it out like a collar. It is silk, with an entire equestrian scheme of bits, bridles, horses and jockeys across it. I thought to accessorize with some golden colored pretties that would pick up on the brass hardware of this vintage Salvatore Ferragamo handbag, but I really like the way the blue of this jewelry contrasts with that classic saddle brown.

Day 5: 1950's Christmas Bustle Day Dress

Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays! I'm spending the day loading up on sweets and homemade meals, but I wanted to take a moment to wish you a wonderful day. Since I'm starting the festivities very early in the morning, I opted for a comfortable, red and green striped day dress from the Etsy shop. It is astoundingly light, and with a crinoline underneath it fills out nicely. I'll be in the kitchen all day, and decided to bust out this wonderful vintage Christmas apron, too. I hope you are having a fabulous day, and I'm sending you lots of love!
