Pre-Winter Blahs

I hate this time of year.  It is like some sick joke that it is still officially Fall, and it is so damned cold outside.  I'm in the mood for some summery, vintage fun! 

These gorgeous ladies are the winners of some sort of bathing suit contest.  Suck it, Miss America!  This is how a bathing suit competition is done! 

How cute is she?  If Tim Burton was styling a photo shoot on the beach in the 1920s, I think it would look a little something like this.  I love all of her coordinating black and white stripes.  Work it, girl!

 

This is Miss Fritzi Ridgeway in 1924.  I like her attitude.  There might be snow on the ground, but if you have a hankering to rock that swimsuit, you should do it!
