You know I love me some Victor Victoria when it comes to dressing.
By the way, Victor Victoria, if you still haven't seen it please do. Amazing performances by Julie Andrews and  Robert Preston.
But lately I've been inspired more by Victoria than Victor- it's all about Femininity and praising the woman's body. And what better time to dress up than December for all kinds of celebrations?
Whether you're into romantic, (retro) glam, Pin-up or seductive femme fatale, let it show.
"Like put a dress on or something..." said Paris to the men's suit wearing Marlene Dietrich, "...until then you're banner from the city."
It went something like that. Can't really quote- wasn't really there when they said it. You get the point.
Here's some inspiration
Yeah, some, sorry for the picture overload

  1. Is your man-mind turning a bit feminine, dear? Stunning photos which remind me of the true beauty of women.

  2. I think it's my kaleidoscope heart. There are pieces that I haven't found yet and this feminine side of me is the next discovery. Hurrah, I'm a woman! But no seriously. The Old Hollywood Glamour times were the ones, where a man was a gentleman and a woman a lady. I feel a deep connection to that time, but there is nada class to be found in this era. So I really wanted to portray the good old times here since it seems I'm not the only one wanting to bring it back now.
