The last installment of What to do in an Air Raid.
Also, I think I'm going to do a few things for the LA Air Raid. I was always thinking of doing a couple of wardrobe changes, so I think I'll show up in my overalls as an Air Raid Warden, whistle included. I got a great vintage air raid helmet online for SUPER cheap. Ill make a decal for the front and an arm band. I've got some great refrence photos. There you go!
Then Ill change into a basic frock and be a gal about the day, in her cotton stockings! Then for the evenin' I'll put on a wool dress. It gets cold there at night. Hopefully by then I'll have learned some steps and I'll be out there doing some dancing. Let's hope!
Anyway, here goes part 3.
See the above insignia? Isn't that cool!? I love the coffee cup! HA!
I don't think we have many of those themed "vintage" parties here in NYC. If we do, I missed them.
ReplyDeleteSeems like there's a lot of that over in the UK.
Goodwood is the big one I the UK that I know of. There are a lot of smaller events and I have some overseas friend that are into the scene.
ReplyDeleteThe "vintage scene" in the US is concentrated mostly in LA (it's huge here), San Francisco, and New York.
You should find a NY event, Peter. Show off that new shirt. Though you might want to wear button braces instead of clipons, BUT you can just say in a super snobby way "They had clipons in the 30s as well. Look it up." :)
