Snow and Blue Velvet







Dress: Modcloth; Coat: Target; Gold Sequin Piece: Thrift; Tights: Accessorize; Boots: Charlotte Russe; Necklace: Hilary's Bazaar

My lovely boyfriend was gracious enough to not only bestow me with this beautiful navy Modcloth dress, but to take the photos above.

Lately 40s vintage has been my particular focus in terms of hair and makeup. Vibrant red lipstick, curled hair tips, and delicate use of bobby-pins help to achieve the feel. An obsession with Humphrey Bogart/John Huston movies doesn't hurt.

Awesome necklace and the dress looks gorgeous too. Humphrey Bogart was an awesome leading man and Lauren Bacall such a surprisingly good match for him. She was only 19 when she first starred opposite of him...but she has the voice of a 40 year old! ;)
