A Tartan Adventure

Yesterday, we went to a small local park in-between running the weekend errands.  It has been awhile since I have posted a vintage ad to actual garment and I was excited to try this out at the park. This is something that I love to make connections with.  It has become a mini-hobby.  The tartan suit is from Urban Suburban by Moordale.  I have to sew some small seam repairs as it is separating in a couple of areas.  This suit was bought with the ad <perfect>.

I couldn't 100% decide which recreation pose I liked better so I figured I'd showcase them both.  My husband prefers the first one and I prefer the second one.  I made some adaptations to the style.

The original ad below, suit originally priced at $65.  I wish I did have the matching petticoat included this would have been glorious but my version is skirt and blazer.  I did wear a petticoat but not like the lovely one pictured.  Not complaining though:):

Love the XO button detail

I love these shoes because they can also easily be applied to the 1930's.  While I was tightening the laces I pulled too hard on one of the shoe laces and broke it.  You forgot how delicate these vintage items can be.  So, I sat there with a broken shoe lace thinking to myself "Oh great, what do I do now?" Then, I thought I'll just knot it and it seems to work:)  I'll have to scout out for a replacement shoe laces.
