Now these may be spring/summer suits technically, but they are still both warm enough and cute enough for fall too everyone! Also, check out the colorful coats for some fun cold weather ideas. Finally we finish out today's pages with some most excellent handbags that I would very much like to order! I'll be switching back to the 1940's and a fall/winter catalog again next time on this series, so these will be the last s/s 1950 pages for a little while :)
I hope you are all having a good week. I've got an awful feeling, since I'm super busy this week (and next week too) while also getting no work done, that I am going to blink and it will be Christmas already. This is not a nice feeling! Not helped along by visiting Ikea today where they already had holiday decorations for sale!!! Not that I wouldn't mind finding some of these Montgomery Wards goodies from 1950 under the family tree...
Those are lovely - but how cold must it be to need a suit AND a topper? I guess in the northern US it does get very cold and snowy.
ReplyDeleteAaah those bags! When I was in Spain I tried to find myself a new leather bag - no joy! I'm looking for one that's smart, but has a zip, not a flap, as I find flaps inconvenient when travelling and trying to access cards/cash quickly but keep them secure the rest of the time. It seems the rest of the world disagrees.
We would definitely need a suit and a topper- and maybe even a parka over the top where I live in Alberta :)
DeleteIt can be quite cold here even in Colorado, but mostly then I find excuses not to leave the house as best I can ;)
DeleteI'm not saying that this post inspired me to hit 'Buy Now' on my first ever vintage suit, but yeah I'm totally saying that. If only those prices were still the same!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! I wish we could get things for these same prices! Even with inflation, if someone was just still selling things this nice to save up for I'd still be super pleased :(
DeleteI love the jackets with the hoods! Thanks for sharing all of these photos of your catalogues!
ReplyDeleteMe too! I want that hooded one with the plaid lining and cuffs.
