I'm really looking forward to the 20s one, and the 40s. It'll be interesting to see the 90s too cos I don't really remember anything about it fashion-wise other than combat pants!<br /><br />Love, love, love the style of the photos and the mini history lesson with this post and the outfit is just beautiful. I think there's a sort of timeless, wearable quality about the best fashions of each era and this is a lovely example.Alexhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11337968500120821387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4868048249049410936.post-84682610622047133992010-07-30T12:48:23.838+01:002010-07-30T12:48:23.838+01:00This is a brilliant challenge. So interesting and ...This is a brilliant challenge. So interesting and intriguing, you really do have such an amazing collection. The boots and the cameo are particularly my favourite.<br />I can’t wait to see the 50s/60s/70s! :)<br /><br />Thank-you for the advice on the clothes I don’t wear, I would have never in a million years have thought to have styled the skirt with a tee, nor would I have been brave enough to wear it with boots before!<br /><br />And you know the dress, I do feel a little conscious about the arms, so your idea about the tights is also very wise! The dress has really got to me the most out of them all. I seem to have come to the realisation maybe it is just something I will never wear, who knows! I really don’t think it suits my shape, but maybe one day I might be able to re work it and find a way of feeling comfortable. xxAlicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04276217187016872792noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4868048249049410936.post-69103052503157049482010-07-30T12:27:49.155+01:002010-07-30T12:27:49.155+01:00Superb!Superb!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4868048249049410936.post-49799869534964414812010-07-30T09:21:27.279+01:002010-07-30T09:21:27.279+01:00J'adore !!!!

It is mindblowing that you have authentic garments and accessories to take on this challenge. How lucky you are to have these items lovingly passed down to you. And I love the little history lesson that goes along with this post. You look like a proper Victorian lady and this is my favorite time period.<br /><br />Pls don't overlook the 20s, fashion became radical with shorter hemlines, looser corsets if any, and bobbed hair...freedom! Very scandalous stuff BUT personally I can't wait to see you in 60s garb!<br /><br />Looking forward to it all! Hats off to you and Alex.<br /><br />xoxo, BonnieBonniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00760707908402191293noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4868048249049410936.post-56849277792223020052010-07-30T01:51:43.868+01:002010-07-30T01:51:43.868+01:00Dear Vix,
