An explanation

I just want to explain that I set up this blog so as to be able to comment on other Google blogs. I'm not actually sure if I'll ever actually start blogging. I particularly like to read blogs with a vintage clothing theme, as I have been wearing vintage or vintage style clothing regularly since high school, about 15 years ago. I like the styles of the postwar period, roughly 1947 to 1967. This is an aesthetic preference. I love the drama of dressing up and so I do it literally all the time. I love the beauty of the styles. I love the way glamorous clothing makes me feel and think. I don't find vintage clothing uncomfortable or inconvenient. I am more comfortable wearing a skirt or a dress than I am in trousers. Girdles don't bother me at all and my legs feel naked without stockings. I love dressing this way. My husband loves me dressing this way. My girlfriends all profess to think I'm nuts to dress this way, but more than one of them has started to dress better through my influence. I am convinced that most women would rather dress up and dress well all the time, but don't because it is now considered something people "don't do." They don't want to call attention to themselves. I don't care. People can pay attention if they like. I do this for my self and for my husband. And I already have so many wonderful, glamorous memories of how I've used dress and self-presentation to give a special beauty to moments in my life.
