Inspiring Family Photos


While rummaging through a suitcase filled with old photographs at my parents house this weekend I stumbled upon some vintage photos of my relatives from way back when. It was fascinating to see the wonderful fashion of the past, especially the 20's. I just love how dressed up everyone got! 
Even the men were styling!

Make sure to look at the bubble skirt my Great Grandmother is wearing, so stylish. 
Love all the different hats!

Lorena was a buyer for a department store so, of course, she was stylish from head to toe!

Check out those hats!

After looking through so many photos with such fabulous fashion I thought I would put together a few contemporary looks inspired by my dashing  family!
