“I’m a girl, and by me that’s only great!
I am proud that my silhouette is curvy,
That I walk with a sweet and girlish gait
With my hips kind of swivelly and swervy…

…When I have a brand new hairdo
With my eyelashes all in curl,
I float as the clouds on air do,
I enjoy being a girl!”

~ Flower Drum Song, 1958

When it comes to fashion, I’m a nostalgist at heart. I adore retro style and vintage-inspired apparel. What are some of your favorite vintage style elements? For me, it’s the polka dots, shift dresses and London mod style of the 1960s, the shirtwaist and full skirt dresses of the 1950s, and the Hollywood glam, pencil skirts, and fitted sweaters of the 1930s.

For me, these trappings of yesteryear evoke an elegance, grace and femininity that is missing in many of today’s trends. I’m delighted to be hosting a giveaway from Shabby Apple, my favorite online source for beautiful clothes with a vintage flair.

Here’ a peek at some of the pieces from Shabby Apple’s vintage clothing line that I’d love to have in my closet:

Gondola

With this Ring

One for my Baby

Tuileries

Half Pike Swimsuit Top

Shabby Apple has vintage-style shoes, accessories, adorable retro aprons,
and children’s clothes (they have maternity wear and plus sizes too).
