Wow this is Clara Bow a-go-go-tastic - who are those two in the top pic Gabbi?
i need the "buy me a whisky" hanky. so cute. your posts are so artfully put together. very nice. BTW I tried the vino last week before bed and it worked like magic! Luckily my sleep has improved the last couple of days sans vino. :)
old world glamour, gotta love it.
oooooooh! these are all so beautiful! i would love to time-travel to the 20's and check it out for as long as possible! :)
great pics xxxxx
I love all these 1920s goodness! Ever since I saw the Chanel movie, I've been really interested in 1920s images lately.
Gorgeous post, darling Gabbi! Love the illustrations!

I used to have a Louise Brooks hairdo when i was 17, those were the days.
Oooh - Dearest Gabbi! Totally flattered and blushing madly!! Thank you so much - you've put a spring in my step today!! The photos you have here are so wonderful - I would die to look that glam! ...and the embroidery! It's perfection as always from the master blogger! You and George stay cool. XX
Ohhh fabulous post Gabbi...I wish I could spend some time in the 20's! How fun! XO
Oh these are wonderful! I love the first and last photos especially and wish I could sport a slick bob like that:) They're so decadently glamorous, aren't they?
By the way, thanks for the wonderful comment! I found a pair of white oxfords on etsy last night in my size that are pretty close to the one in the pic, but am still on the hunt for a tan pair. Thanks for the Zappos tip...I'm going to keep regularly looking there:)
nice pictures :D
Wow! Those are incredible. I really enjoyed them all. I love the 1920's.
Oh man, I wish I was a Jazz dancer...
oooo what FIERCE pictures!
I adore the first picture. If only I could pull off that hairdo and the plunging back...
wow.. vintage photos!
i love gorgeous "Joan"...
=)

Love your choices dear!
Oh I love all that you've chosen to feature here on this post! That Gorgeous Joan gets around! I was just admiring her on Sam's blog yesterday. Joan looks very happy to be hanging out with the beautiful Louise Brooks! :)
great.. the first pic is so inspiringgg. :))

Beautiful post! Lovely blog!
Love that Pixie-bob cut when I see done right. Fine, straight hair, with a little nose and crisp jawline.
It is hard to find.
Though I have spied it lately on a few tiny girls playing at the park.
The ones who are fashionably fun! ;P
these are great. now i want to have a short bob again and wear a flapper dress. : )
oh gosh, you're such a sweetheart! what's funny is i've actually been looking at your blog quite a bit the past few weeks :) i know, kind of a blog stalker hehe, but i found you through diana's blog as well, and i just adore your stuff! you post such inspiring and lovely things. everytime i look over your new posts, it makes me smile. love it!
P.S. Love the new format and the Deco border, darling Gabbi! So chic!

~ I love Clara! Thank you Mondo… :)
~ Glad the sleep is back to normal Laura. I hate it when that happens… I’m glad the vino didn’t mess it up. I just need an excuse to drink it maybe?♥
~ Thank you Christina and Drollgirl! ♥ Congratulations on being featured on the weekly magazine again… that’ really cool! :)

~ I really need to see the Chanel films Anna, in my small obsessive search for all things 1920’s I kept reading about her. So influential.
~ Thank you so much dearest CC♥♥ Hope you’re having a wonderful week… I love your newest giveaway and post. Your love of bustiers is contagious!
~ That’s always been my dream hair dear Mint, but have horrible wavy hair and it never looked right (when I had it short).
~ I’m such a fan of your work Sam, I’m glad you don’t mind me putting your illustrations up. They fall so perfectly in with my inspirations and obsessions for beautiful things. Kisses from George! (You should see him pant in the heat… sad but funny) :) ♥
~ Thank you so much Elizabeth! Hope your week is going swell…♥
~ Your new shoes sound awesome Kelley, I can’t wait to see them! I don’t think I’ve ever seen white oxfords… they sound extremely neat. I really need some new ones too, but boring me will probably end up with black. Thank you and hope the week it going really well. ♥xo

~ I have a hard time getting things the way I like them Diana… thanks for not thinking I’m crazy for changing it so often! ♥ Love your newest interview post of Maddie. Her work is amazing!
Hi Gabbi,
I always love your blog templates. Do you do the html code yourself? I'm trying to give my blog a little makeover (just changing sizes and minor details), but I'm completely lost! I know I've changed it before, but I can't remember how I did it, lol.
So I was wondering if you could help me? Your content size is just what I want. Any chance you'd share your code with me, or just show me what I should do? I hope it's no trouble.
My email: anna.paramita@gmail.com
Perhaps one of my favorite decades! The Cotton Club movie is my top choice... Thanks Gabbi!
~XO*
Love, love, love your new layout!! Superb!! XXX Bless George's cotton socks - panting! - golly it must be VERY hot indeed!
Great pictures! Sam's drawing is so lovely as always :)

and oh, 20s style. divine!
P.P.S. Did your tag today, darling!

Flappers are my obsession. As are F. Scott Fitzgerald and the Roaring Twenties. Fabulous, fabulous post! :)
Hi Gabbi,
This is a fab period. I love the first photo, the illustration and the gloves - plus Sam's gorgeous art, of course!

wow, I love all these photos :)
Thanks for the tip:) Its funny, we must think alike...I went to the physical store yesterday, but they haven't even received them yet. I thought I might get lucky.
Let's build a time machine and go back to the 20s! We can throw a Gatsby-esque party and bring a bunch of clothes and items back to the future with us! :)
Congrats! You just won the Tolani scarf giveaway on my blog :)
