About
The greatest thing about the modern American woman is that she can make her own rules - so that's what I'm doing. My own rules of fashion, of parenting, of life: being an old-fashioned lady that's still oh-so-modern.

I adore Downton Abbey. Reason 1 - it's British, automatically awesome. Reason 2- it's actually a pretty nice historical drama. Reason 3 - OMG the clothes (and the hats!) SQUUEEEEEEEEE
Look at these dresses.
And these dresses. And that hat! *swoon*
And more fabulous hats.
The show manages to cover a pretty broad range of time, from 1912 (think Titanic) through World War I into the fabulous 1920s. And as you watch the fashions change through the show, you wonder more about how women did dress then, and close was the show to the fashion of the times?
Yay for internet research! I found this marvelous site, Fashion-Era.com, which covers how things changed from Victorian all the way through the 1950s. With my current obsession with all things vintage, I'm in love with this site. It's got so many fabulous references and resources for your vintage-inspired style!
Check out this guide, and start looking fabulous!
