Monday's school outfit

MONDAY!!! And school outfit of the day is...


...Tadaa!!! Vintage skirt from "Pendleton"! 


Or...actually I don't really know how "vintage" this skirt is. But I bought it at the vintage department at Sivletto. It's nice and wooly for the cold weather! The cardigan I'm sure of is vintage though! Also from "Sivletto". I feel very demure in this outfit - which I of course wear with vintage lingerie...


Vintage "Veitel" stockings! As there's no elasticity in vintage stockings, they tend to become a bit baggy sometimes - especially if you have skinny legs like me. These fit me perfectly though! Found them at "Devil's Delight" in Stockholm. Garter from "What Katie Did".


My grandmother gave me this muff some time ago. She used it when she was young in the 20s or 30s. I decided to try it out today. It has a little pocket inside where you can put money, a buss ticket...or an iPhone!

And yes, you can also follow me on Twitter! Just can't get that function to function on my blog...On Twitter my name is "MissC_Meadows", since someone else had already taken "MissMeadows". What a theft!!!!!

    Thanks y'all! Didn't know icy blue was such a good color for me. Guess I should get some more clothes in that shade then! :)

    I think Jenny and Franz Veitel would have been impressed that the nylon stockings made it all the way to Sweden from their factory in a small town in New York in the United States. They ceased production sometime in the early 1970s.

      Thank you for the info! I love knowing where my vintage treasures come from! :) I found three boxes, with two pairs of these Veitel stockings in each, in a lingerie shop here in Stockholm. Loved them so much I bought them all! :D xox
