Easter Street Photography #7: The belt that carries the outfit

A bit blurry, but I like how the belt makes such a great contrast to the dress. Also look at the tiny purse.

That’s it! I hope you enjoyed this excursion on 1910 street photography!

Easter Street Photography #6: Feather Action

Love the straight lines in the woman’s jacket that get repeated in the skirt. Also great feather action on the hat. Also, you just know that these two have the best gossip.

Easter Street Photography #5 “Intricate blouses and a statement hat”

I wish we had statement hats these days! If you can zoom in on the blouses, so many details! Also the women in the back also has a fun hat.

I would love to know what these two were up to. One with the short dress and the other with heavily inspired japonisme outfit. Also holding hands!

Why even go out with your girlfriends if you don’t wear the same hats?
