Inspiration From The Past // Madrigal // 1953









the bf got me a bunch of madrigal magazines via ebay. madrigal was a quite famous women life style magazine from france ( i suppose, you were able to get it in the most french speaking countrys). fashion didn't seemed to be the magazines main interest - each mag is filled with photo-love-stories - but the fashion pages in every magazine are totally inspiring. hope you enjoy.

What's New ...



 

 

 

here are some of my recent finds from vintage land ... pink cotton 1940s dress from ebay ... black & white atomic age print handmade dress from the 50s. i found it on ebay as well ... another great bargain is this black late 50s suit with a leopard spotted fur collar. the skirt is almost under knee length. sadly this suit is a little too big for me but i had to get it ... just as the suit i found these biker lace-up boots at my fav thrift store in town. i can't wait to wear them at warmer days with some cowgirl outfits.
 - for all the finds together i had to spent just 57,50€.
