A Filmland Creation
Last night I got together with Angelica, Rhiannon of Garb-Oh Vintage, Christine of Living Threads Vintage and Sandi of Lorrel Mae’s for an evening of cocktails and chit-chat at the lovely Secret Society. The evening and cool January weather proved the perfect opportunity to wear one of my new favorite dresses, this silver number…
Regrettably, these shoes are a little worse for wear, but I couldn’t pass them up. I mean, come on! GOLD 40s SHOES!? And $14! How could a girl resist?
I’m a sucker for garments that button asymmetrically as well as have pockets. Er, well in this case, pocket. The dress also has quite possibly the best label ever too. A Miss Hollywood Jr. A Filmland Creation.
I mean, come on! First off, what a name, and secondly, it has spotlights and a little man with a movie camera! How swell is that?
As we stood out in the chilly weather saying our goodbyes we received many looks and compliments on our attire. Always a nice ego boost.
Well, I’m off to follow a hot lead on my hunt for the ever elusive LA Confidential coat! Wish me luck! I hope you all are having a marvelous Friday!

What a gorgeous dress, I love it!
You had me at “a Filmland Creation”. And the box purse! Ugh, just terrifically cute. Great outfit!
I love your blogs and emails. When I get them, it’s an escape out of my busy world! I get excited about my future vintage-shopping endeavors.
Your purse is amazing! Okay, your whole outfit is amazing, but that purse!! 🙂
I’m so in love with your hat! But the whole outfit is awesome, and I definitely wouldn’t have been able to resist those heels.
Lovely! The label is a wonder. I have an early 40s hat with a similar Hollywood label.
Waow!!! A real movie STAR!!!!!
Gorgeous outfit! You look like a Hollywood star!
The first photo took my breath away! The fabric has such a lovely quality to it….like moonshine. The label is to die for, I’ve never seen anything like it before. It looks amazing on you, the ruffle to the skirt and pocket detail are just lovely. xx Shauna
1940s is your decade — you wear it exceptionally well!!!
I love the swooping curves and elegant hues of this wonderful outfit. Those shoes, even if they’re a bit worn, are a complete bargain for $14.I think that if you were only able to get one wear out of them, they would still be more than worth it.

Janey! Stop taunting me with such lovely garb! <3 <3
This dress is GORGEOUS!!! It drapes beautifully and the color is subtly glamorous! You look amazing!
What a stunning outfit! That dress is fantastic, and those gloves are a perfect match. It’s a gorgeous color (I adore grey, and people always look at me a bit funny when I say it) and the sheen of the fabric is lovely. And what a bargain on the shoes!
Looking absolutely delightful as always, but oh boy am I drooling over your accessories…especially that hat!
I love how you mixed metallics in this outfit and I’m always a fan of gold shoes! The fur tilt hat is darling too. 🙂 Quite a fitting background (Cary!).
Great tag – I have been known to buy dresses just for the tag and that one is a winner
