1940's + dark blue

1941 Vogue Photographer: Horst P Horst

Equals perfection! Lately I have been obsessed with dark blue, I just love how versatile it is, the color combinations are endless and its completely stain friendly for messy folk like myself. Here are some of my favorite recent vintage 1940's dark blue finds.

  9. And don't forget that dark blue is usually a very flattering shade on most of us! I love the first one, but there's no way to buy a dress for $135 on my budget!
