1950s (Poodle Skirt)



Eras Suggested by: Tori

In this outfit:
  • Poodle skirt from my grandmother. My aunt's mother made it for her, but it never fit her, so I ended up with it.
  • I got the crenelin (underskirt) from an antique shop, and then my mom kinda remade part of it for me.
  • My mom made the shirt.
  • The belt belonged to my mom.
  • The shoes, socks and scarf all belong to my mom. She let me borrow them.
My thoughts:
  • I really like circle skirts. They make my waist look so small, and they make it fun to spin around.
  • Bright red lipstick is fantastic, and now everyone definitely knows which mug I used last Friday.
  • It's a fun outfit :)
The response:
  • Coworker G: "Cute!"
  • Coworker M: "You're going to need a walk in closet someday"
  • Coworker SK: "You've even got the shoes!" *starts pretending to dance*
  • Coworker SK after a little bit: "Laverne and Shirley!" *discussion starts over which one I look like. I'm completely confused because I have never met either of these people*
  • The food guy (who does theater) was so excited about the poodle shirt.
  • From the department down the hall that loves this style challenge I'm doing- "You're like Halloween every Friday!"
