It’s been a while since I shared some old catalog images. Finally got my scanner hooked up again, so I have two darling pages to show from a 1938 Chicago Mail Order catalog. This comes from a little sale catalog and it’s one I go back to over and over again for style inspiration. In fact, it’s in this catalog that I found the image I based my Fiesta Farmerettes off of!
Paging American Duchess– I want “N” in the above photo- the floral ones with little bows on the front and open toes with matching purse, k? I’m not picky… I’ll take them in stripes instead of florals ;) Or green.

Wishing you a relaxing, gorgeous weekend!
