Sorry for the slightly tacky post title ~ being a devotee to the written word and literature fanatic, I actually quite enjoy puns and silly phrasing.  So you might find a bit more of that around here than otherwise expected…  (~ ̄▽ ̄)~

Today I am wearing a comfortable, easy, Mama-style which is sort of nautical flavored.  Based on 1940’s casual/farm wear, the star of this outfit are my Freddie’s of Pinewood Reproduction 1950’s jeans. I Freddie’s of Pinewood Jeans.  You know what would be even better though?  A pair of 40’s slacks in jersey knit!  Vintage track pants all the way! One of these days I’ll get around to sewing up a pair. (o⌒.⌒o)

I love my vintage dresses and skirts, but I will be the first to admit that as a mother, they are not always the most practical item to wear.  I have to be flexible, and that sometimes requires “get-down-and-get-dirty” outfits, complete with run-around type shoes.  For that, I can’t beat my white sandshoes, or plimsoles {as I believe they are sometimes known as}.  In fact, I am in desperate need of a new set as I’ve almost worn the soles off this pair!

To complete the look, I can’t be without one of my favorite accessories ~ my little bud!*  \(*≧ω≦)ノ  I shall introduce the family properly with the next post I hope, but until then ~ goodbye.

xox,

  1. I love the jeans! I've been meaning to invest in a good pair of vintage-style jeans for a while.

    1. It's definitely worth it; vintage jeans are a fabulous staple that really fill a necessary spot in just about any wardrobe I think! ^ _ ^

  2. You look magnificent! There's something so fresh, yet endlessly timeless in the same go, about denim + white or cream top like that. It works so well for both spring and fall, so who knows, maybe we'll both be sporting the same kind of look at the exact same moment on each of our corners of the world.
