What to Wear, What to Wear...

As we finish the 'prep & pack', then load up the trailer, I am thinking about the IMPORTANT stuff for this show: what to WEAR while at the Remnants of the Past show in Nipomo, California this week!

... and this morning, lo and behold, I came across this post on Debbie Dusenberry's Curious Sofa blog. Seems the fabulously stylish Deb has discovered a web site/blog in France, Atelier des Ours, that features a fashion style that tickled her fancy... and a lot of other girls, too: This looks a lot like what we are all wearing on the vintage show circuit in the west, and what artisans like Sara at Sweet Magnolias Farm and Leah at Belle Blanc are creating!

Me, wearing a short version of the same skirt shown on the Atelier des Ours web site, and an apron designed by Sara of Sweet Magnolias Farm. {Lacy blouse from Goodwill; vintage rose hat band made by me.} I guess this means I am finally in style - who knew?!

{And this girl is packin' shorts & skirts  along with petticoats for the trip - clear sunny skies and temps in the high 60's low 70's alllllll week. YES!}
