How to stitch a wild bikini. French actress Barbara Lange in a makeshift two-piece bathing suit she cut from one yard of cloth". Photo by Nina Leen. In her defense, it kinda sorta looked like a regular bikini from afar. But, realistically, it was pretty crowded and no one was really that far from each other.). I was talked into watching the previous night, one can easily fashion herself a sassy swimsuit out of scraps of stripey fabric or a brightly covered scarf.

mystery girl vintage: May 2015
http://mysterygirlvintage.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html
Summer style inspiration: vintage paperback vixens. Seeing how this holiday weekend marks the unofficial start of the season (at least here in the States) today felt like a perfect time to collect and share some. Clearly these images were meant to catch the eye of a potential reader via the ladies' figures, not fashions, but that doesn't make them any less fabulous! The pulp fiction project. Aka my "other" blog, which I hope to get back to updating sometime soon }. Let's (re) do this! How, and how often,...

On a semi-related topic, I kind of want to start a gofund me campaign to produce a line of Freudian slips.

http://mysterygirlvintage.blogspot.com/2015_06_01_archive.html
For the woman who is going places. Seeing as how yesterday marked the first official day of Summer, I figured we should salute the arrival of a new season in appropriate fashion; by sharing some fabulous seasonally appropriate vintage fashions! In this case, circa the Summer 1962 issue of the Frederick's of Hollywood catalog. Click to view in larger size. I am particularly fond of the art on the second page.). Mgv style icon: pin-up girls.

And alphabetical order. Although in this case it didn't work. But I digress.
