Suited Up

I have for the longest time wanted a 1940s suit. I looked for hours on end on etsy, ebay and shops with the suits either being too big, small or in fragile condition. To finish this story I ended up having one made by The Golden Age as a Christmas present. It was such a fun process and I absolutely love the end result! Now I can type on my 1940s typewriter in my 1940s style suit.

Both of my Grandmother's gave it the 1940s-style approval 

Have a lovely week everyone!

  1. How lovely! That suit is perfect for you and what a great color! The best part about 1940s suits like that is you can wear the pieces separately as well. I have a gorgeous 1940s suit that I picked up from a vintage shop here in Flagstaff and I wear both the suit and the jacket all of the time.
