Charles Jourdan & Guy Bourdin
I'm always a big fan of vintage ads, but especially when they feature peter pan collars, saddle shoes, and super flat loafers! This is just another collaborations from photographer Guy Bourdin and shoe designer Charles Jourdan. The last photos I posted are also a collaboration between the two !

Babes In Mobland
I love this editorial from the September issue of Vanity Fair. I should've known it was Ellen Von Unwerth as soon as saw it! It's titled, Babes In Mobland, and it features the cast of HBO's Empire Boardwalk.

40's Street Style
I love this vintage street style thread on The Fashion Spot. It's not all street style, but it's still fun to scroll through.

Sweet and Lowdown
I've been of fan of Nicholas Lawn's work for sometime now, but there was something extra special about this early twentieth century inspired editorial that I couldn't post it fast enough! It was shot for Test Magazine and features some really great styling from Lyson Marchessault, along with some really great photo effects from Mr. Lawn.

Vintage Dancer
Look at these vintage dance costumes this girl found at an estate sale back in 2004. I would die if I ever came upon such beautiful pieces!

Topsy Design
I just discovered this couple/design team pictured above, and I'm absolutely blown away by their work. They actually do exactly what I do as far as owning an online vintage store and styling really elaborate shoots for their products. They photograph everything themselves, and they make incredible videos too. No joke, they do every bit of what I do with my store except like a million times better. Their killing me with inspiration. I particularly like the following shoot, and a separate video featuring the wife modeling (I'm not sure of her name). I thought it was a really interesting and a well thought out video, and they pick out some really great songs too!
