You did a super job in #2 with the '40s especially. Great pumps for the look.&nbsp;</p> <p>I LOVE your '70s look best of all - right at the end with the hat. Absolutely killer - down to the crocheted boho vest. WOW. I'm impressed.&nbsp;</p> <p>And you look so comfy in #4 too.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-era-challenge-can-i-play-too#post-1471805 Thu, 09 Apr 2015 21:21:48 +0000 Joyce B 1471805@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You ladies are doing a fantastic job with the Fashion Era Challenge and you are making me want to play too.. </p> <p>I am going for 40s-50s and 70s in the last set.<br /> I would wear most of the pieces, I could go with the 40s-50s for serious occasions. The 70s I would wear separately, not together as I have already been there, done that!<br /> I don't have the best photo set-up and the Spring cleaning has not been done (where is Spring anyway?) but here is my share for the challenge.<br /> After looking at the pictures I realized that the navy colored cardi does not have the best fit, but it does it for the challenge.<br /> The 40s-50s remind me of my grandmother. My grandfather and uncles were taylors and they made beaufiful suits for her.<br /> Thanks for looking and for any other ideas that you can share. </p>
