They've come full circle...as long as grandma doesn't catch you trying to wear them out. Check out this article:

I've seen ones like these in 60's hipster movies. Im jealous. I did get a great pair of old platform shoes from my great aunt. From probably like the 50's

Hi @tootsie_wootsy  and @XArea51 . I've enjoyed looking at all the stylin' threads here. Wish I could participate but having always lived in LA or San Diego, high fashion for me is wearing my glittery flip flops

Hey there @TigerLily ! I'm from northern California and I completely get it. The summers here are brutal and my flip flops get a work out too! It's finally cooling down into the 70's everyday, so I'm getting my chance to wear the more stylish apparel. I have family in San Diego and their number 1 accessory seems to be a glowing tan and of course, sandals of every kind. 😁

Amen!
There was a little girl,
            Who had a little curl,
Right in the middle of her forehead.
            When she was good,
            She was very good indeed,
But when she was bad she was horrid.

I'm really hoping this article is TRUTH. You never know with Vogue, I'm hoping with their new direction they may be speaking to me and mine now...

I tend to go down rabbit holes easily it's because I'm part crow and like shiny things. It's in my nature and cannot be helped! Annnyyywway....7's are one of my favorite brand of jeans. They come in long inseams and for those of us without butt they tend to be pretty flattering!  I can't decide if I love these or not...they are super fun but maybe it's just the boots that make them look amazing.

BTW, this post sent me down a pretty awesome rabbit hole. These shoes are actually vegan! They have some pretty great shoes that are truly art pieces.

@Spookcat brought up the beautiful gown Dita Von Teese wore at her wedding in another thread and that got me thinking. I'm not normally into Vivian Westwood, except for the occasional wedding dresses or red carpet dress that catches my eye. And they are almost always vintage. There's just so much fabric most of the time - though she uses some amazing sumptuous fabrics. I LOVE corsetry- it's all about the clean lines.. If you know me that probably does not surprise you. Some of my favorite vintage Vivian's that require some devine corsetry:

Because- OH. MY. GOD. Shoulders, cleavage, nip waist, long skirt that requires a swish. YUMMM!

First of all, creepy model- is this like a dead girl thing or I purposely look like a mannequin? Anyway try and get past the creep factor...

Then, I went to Vivian Westwood's Site, cause I'm a punk rock girl ...err woman just to see if there was anything for me. And indeed there were some fabulous finds! Thanks @Spookcat!

Turns out I require this in my life. I have a dress in the closet now that resembles this but shorter and with a square neck. And let's be honest here, this is an amazing color.

I fell in LOVE with this jacket. Pair with jeans or leathers. Yes Please!

And then there's this:

Bike Shorts with a Blazer

Yes. Read it again, I know... I had to read it twice too. I'm not even catholic and I'm making the sign of the cross right now.
