Guest Post || Amy of Wildfell Hall

A big thank you to Amy of Wildfell Hall Vintage for today's guest post. Amy became a full time vintage seller last year which is happy news for all of us who enjoy her lovely shop. She is a great student of eras, styles, designers and fabrics, often sharing her learnings on her beautiful blog. And she totally knocked my socks off with this super clever post. Which gal is your favorite? I'm into Carly Simon. ♡ Duff

Hello - Amy here! Sometimes when I find a dress, or a pair of shoes, or put two things together they immediately remind me of someone. So I thought for this guest post I would do a little "fantasy dressing"- putting Wildfell Hall clothes on some famous ladies. I admit that Shelley Duval in The Shining may be my favorite, the movie still terrifies me but I just love watching her in it....and truth be told I kind of love her outfits. Which wasn't the point I'm sure.

I hope you can find a favorite below from these fab women, who would YOU just love to dress given the chance?

Carly Simon in these boots
Dita Von Teese in this dress
Grace Kelly in this dress
Jane Fonda in these pants
Lucille Ball in this dress
Marilyn Monroe in this dress
Shelley Duval in this jumper
Stevie Nicks in this dress
Thelma & Louise in these jeans (yowza!)

This is such an awesome post! I love it. I gotta say I'm more of a Dita Von Teese / Grace Kelly kind of girl.

What a unique and very fun post! Kudos to Amy's creativity. Total deja-vu for me with Carly -- can you say college sophomore? (pre-Victoria's Secret when we all burned ours!) Okay, well, now I've dated myself!

And Grace Kelly -- the epitome of glamour, really!

Oh how sweet. I adore Grace Kelley, but I have to say that Thelma and Louise are totally rockin the high-waisteds....
