Number one inspirations for summertime (or anytime). I’ve written too much about this already so I won’t ramble, but most of these photos are from silent film Ebay searches, except for that last one, which was found here.

Great post! Love the photo of Priscilla Bonner :)
I’m just wondering whether you are still selling clothing as you haven’t put anything on etsy/ebay for a while now? xxx
Love the atmosphere)))

Love all the pics, especially the one of Priscilla Bonner. Ethereal is the exact that describes the feeling.
i like all of them
how beautiful! :D
Wow! It’s interesting because all these ladies are so beautiful it looks like they could step out of the photos and walk around today like models stepping out of a magazine. (Except these ladies look more like the average beautiful woman than the tall amazons we have modeling today.)
Sometimes it’s hard to wrap the brain around the fact that this was almost 80-90 years ago.
