Fifties Doll

I think I’ve mentioned my love for Vintage before. I’ve always perceived life to have been softer, simpler…sweeter back then. 
The romanticism being reflected in fashion right now is very similar to life back in the good ol’ days. Like Benjamin Kanarek’s pictorial for Harper Bazaar, October ‘10:

Fitted jackets, full skirted frocks, high heels and some great accessories…
Very 50s. Very Me!

And very beautiful!
Although the times then were perhaps not easier then now, I agree on your take, because the rules were clear, now all has become muddy and there is so much ugliness and vulgarity accepted...
