Hello lovely readers!
This is a bit of a "filler post"... just a few outfits I've been wearing of late.
I'm still very inspired by 1950s western wear, as you can see! Outfit on the left: 1970s western shirt, thrifted skirt (originally a dress, I hacked it up!), TUK pumps. On the right: 1960s Rockmount western shirt, 1950s jeans.
Early Wanda Jackson has been my style muse lately; she's such a bombshell, yet totally adorable too:
"Funnel of Love" is not just one of my favorite Wanda songs, but one of my favorite songs by anyone; imagine my delight when I found this version she re-recorded with the Cramps in 2003:
While I was at home this weekend I had the opportunity to photograph (and be photographed, of course!) inside one of the prettiest abandoned houses ever; it's a cute little country cottage not far from my own house that's been vacant for years. I'll have a full post up very soon, but for now, here's a little teaser of some of the amazing wallpaper inside:
See you soon ♥
I love your outfits & Wanda Jackson. I once saw a picture of her wearing a 50s peach fringe dress and her outfit left such an impression pn me. I still long for a similar one. I saw her perform live many, many years ago,in Long Beach & I just watched her on the Conan O'Brian show the other day. I can't believe how well her voice has held up! She still sounds the same. She just released a new record that was produced by Jack White. Have you heard it? I still need to check it out.
ReplyDeleteThanks Crystal Lee! I've been meaning to buy that album too; I've heard some of the tracks and seen the "Thunder On the Mountain" music video on YouTube (Wanda + Jack White=most adorable thing ever). You're right, she still sounds a-mazing! I love that she's in her 70s and just gets cooler every day.
ReplyDeleteI love these outfits and I'm a huge fan of Wanda Jackson!! She was in Los Angeles but the tickets sold out =(
ReplyDeleteGreat style as always, but gotta say I can't stop staring at that wallpaper! I have the same switch plates in my house, only they're brown. Please do lots of pics on this one!!
ReplyDeleteI love the outfit on the left! Have you seen Wanda? I have seen her here in Canada a few times and she is still such a great performer :)
