As promised, this week I’m just going to post up some vintage hat photos straight out of Vogue magazine in the 1930s, 40s and 50s. These are all care of MyVintageVogue. Click on the thumbnail to see the full image…

Me a few weeks ago at the Slovenian seaside (the Slovenian coastline on the Adriatic only stretches 45km, so what you see in the distance is in fact Italy – Trieste I think). As you can see I’m making good use of my new tilt hat that I bought in London, a few weeks before that! It’s a 40s style, but I think it’s from the late 70s or early 80s – you know when they had that huge 40s fashion revival? Oh, the high-waisted jeans I bought in London too actually – Tara Starlet that I bought from Revival Retro.

From memory this was a vintage 1950s hat, that was up for auction on eBay a long time ago…

I’ve posted this on SwingFashionista.com already, but I just keep coming back to it, so I wanted to post it up here as well. Just such a dramatic collection, futuristic yet nostalgic…

This photo is so beautifully evocative… wow!
