>How I love mid 1930s style! This page is no exception. In fact, I’d gladly take these items right off the page and put them in my closet. I love the silly little superhero cape on the dress and the lovely detailing on the coat. Yummy!
*edited to add* A friend (Top Tottie Vintage on Etsy) recognized the coat in the ad as one she owns!! Check out a photo of the back of the coat on my Flickr here, here and here. I thought it looked familiar!

As a side note: Hubby had a the idea to take a day and take pics of me in some of my vintage clothing to document it. So excited! I always want to show and tell but somehow get easily sidetracked and never seem to have my hair set when I have time to take pics.
