You may have noticed that I have a fascination with old
trains (see this post). No surprise that
I was intrigued by this colorful and whimsical one. I couldn't resist striking
a pose with a train that looks like it was pulled straight out of a 1920’s
children’s toy set! This life sized toy brought memories of my own childhood. I
quickly realized it would be the perfect match for my playful bird blouse!
The pattern of vibrant birds reminds me of the bright shirts
I would wear in elementary school. But now it’s a modernized and mature
version. As soon as I saw the blouse my 5-year old inner Iris screeched with
joy. I quickly snatched it up! She screeched again when I passed this train. I
felt like little Iris playing with my old train set while wearing my Rainbow
Brite inspired outfits. Life sized toys mixed with fanciful fashion…what more
can a little girl ask for?
What fashion brings back memories of your childhood?
Fashion Tip: Bored
of pairing your patterned tops with solid colored bottoms? Try pairing it with
tweed bottoms. Tweed will add color and texture to your patterned tops!
