While I’ve always concentrated on vintage clothing from mid-century, I’ve spied many an interesting earlier piece. The challenge is finding something from the early 1900s that is in wearable condition and in a size large enough to be worn. Just the other day I discovered a lovely woman’s jacket with a 21-inch waist! Even my gifted tailor’s magical fingers couldn’t make that work for me.

So you can imagine my glee over today’s VPOD. This bobbin lace blouse in cream and black has old-fashioned charm and could fit a modern woman’s body. Pair it with the vintage Yves Saint Laurent skirt shown here to create a modern, chic look.

It’s a beautiful blast from the past for a vintage fashionista!

Blouse available at Uesa Goods Vintage.
Skirt available at Zuburbia Green Vintage.
