1940's military inspiration








I know this movie has been out a couple of months already, and I haven't seen it yet, but I've seen the previews and pictures and I love the wardrobe and hair. It takes place in my favorite era, the 1940's, so of course I love it. I don't usually go for the whole military look, but I like to add pieces of it in my wardrobe and make my own look. A nice white long sleeved crisp chirt, or a military jacket for example. I'm aiming to get an affordable dark brown leather jacket (like the one in the picture below) for this fall. I made a little set on Polyvore for more ideas (see below)

All the cats join in

I found this cute cartoon on YouTube. It's from 1946, and the music is from Benny Goodman & The Pied Pipers. I love Swing! And I was surprised to find out it was made by Disney.
