Jazz Age Festival at Governors Island!

I FINALLY made it out to Governors Island for the Jazz Age festival. I have been invited many times but something would always come up so I couldn’t miss this one and I am glad I didn’t. I attended the event with my friend Michele of House of Savoia and my gal pal Ingrid and we had a grand ol time. I felt like I was in a time warp; right back in the 1920s. The ladies were dressed in shapeless 20s dresses and pearls and men were in suits and boater hats. I wore one of my best vintage pieces; a playsuit that could pass for 1920s along with a turban, vintage broche, and snake-skin Jessica Simpson shoes. I finger-waved my hair and wore my 1920s wig as a half-wig (I don’t expect you all to understand the technics of my hairstyle lol). Michele went in a very dapper suit, spectators, and a polka dot tie. He is always very fashionable and has exquisite taste. Ingrid went in a 1950s vintage dress and really cute wedges. I styled her hair in victory rolls and complimented it with one of my vintage hats. We were all dressed for the occasion and had such a wonderful and peaceful day at this gathering. I will definitely attend the next one and I suggest you attend too!
