1940s hairstyle

I mentioned a while back that i was attending a swing party at the end April. Unfortunately its been canceled :(

however I had been practicing my look before it got canceled so here is my 1940s Betty Grable inspired hairstyle

what do you think?


Thanks to my boyfriend for taking the photos.


Im wearing my lovely vintage knit cardi that I got from the Blind Lemon vintage fair. My dress is from Dorothy Perkins its a lovely dress perfect for summer and reminds me of the dresses little victorian girls wore with their thick black tights and ankle boots. I tried to find a picture from the 1993 film Secret Garden to give an example because I know the girl wears a dress just like it, but nowhere had any stills.

I have a weeks holiday so Ive come back home to Coventry. I have internet here so expect a few catch up posts! at last!
