70's Inspired Fashion Shoot

I really enjoyed getting to style this fun 70's inspired fashion shoot...complete with vintage travel trailer.  The wardrobe for the shoot included two 70's staples...high waist flare jeans and a flowing hippie maxi dress.  And check out the cool striped vintage tunic vest.  It's for sale in my Hip Fashion Stylist Vintage Boutique at   http://www.etsy.com/shop/hipfashionstylist

Then it started to rain!

50's and 60's Fashion Photographer - Henry Clarke

I really love these 50's fashion photos from the renowned photographer of haute couture, Henry Clarke (1918-1996).  In the 1950's and 1960's he worked for American, French and British Vogue Magazine.

1940's Style Inspiration

While working on a recent 1940's inspired photo shoot, I ran acroos this photo of film actress Hedy Lamarr and it made me think of my own mom and her beautiful sense of style.  So I decided to post a few old family photos for you to enjoy.  Check out the great clothes!

1940's Inspired Dresses from Shabby Apple

My past few posts have been all about gorgeous 1940's inspired dresses. OK, I'm obsessed.  I was pleasantly surprised recently to find that Sarah Brasher of Edelweiss (see my post from May 6) designed Shabby Apple's "Up and Away" line.  These beautifully styled photos from their website are my favorite dresses from that line.  Almost all of the dresses from the "Up and Away" line are currently on sale for around $100.  To check them out, simply click the Shabby Apple affiliate button on my side bar.  Browse their other vintage inspired lines and boutique collections.  Sarah Brasher also designed many of the dresses for their "Silk Road" line.

1940's Inspired Gowns

These 1940's inspired photos from an editorial in Vogue reminded me of some gorgeous gowns I had recently seen from the Pre-Fall 2011 Collection from Carolina Herrera.
