I'm an old-fashioned sort. I love clothes from previous decades. I enjoy history. But my mind, eyes and heart are firmly planted in the 21st century. You could call me a modern old-fashioned.
Because in way, that's what I am.

You and me both, Bella. You look gorgeous - I love the different textures and those boots are killer. Sarah xxx
Wowza you look gorgeous, Bella!! I love this entire outfit and those boots are amazing. I'm totally loving everything!!
That's freaky, I started to write an almost identical post earlier, it just goes to show how brilliant blogging is in that it unites like-minded women we'd never have met without the internet.
I love this outfit, the casually untucked vest and the sexy boots rock my world, as do you!
xxxx
Great words! And also I love this outfit of yours, black really look amazing on you :)
Very cool. I like the idea of drawing on the past as we create our present. And the tights rock!
This has to be my favorite of the outfits I've seen on you so far. That b+w shot especially...it should be hanging in a portrait gallery somewhere, it just seems to capture so much personality!
omg your top and boots are so awesome. you look gorgeous dear! I love your blog, all contents are amazing <3
follow me if you love to, and i’ll follow you back :)

Oh, WOW! I love, love, love this. (squealing and clapping). Nicely done!
New to your blog and loving this outfit, and the sentiments!
Wonderful tights and boots, and such a pretty slip/skirt.
Love Curtise x
love the many textures of black!
This must be one of my favorites too - I love all the different blacks, and esp the black lace top. Excellent! : >
I love your mixed lace, and in my favorite boots of yours no less. midnight fox!
Hats off to you! I love your straw hat and the lace is divine xx
I love your outfit! All the textures in the black and how it is definitely a nod to old fashion but totally modern. Hot! Hot! Hot! :D
I love the slip and wish that I could wear mine to work! The contrasting laces and the hints of gold are just perfect. We need to find you some roller skates!
I picture you playing cards in a dark, smoky room, men scowling at your unladylike winning streak, then you sauntering over to the piano to sing a torch song. With a heavy-metal flourish at the end perhaps.
I like how you have romantic with a hard edge and wow those boots!
Well, I agree with all the previous comments...you look totally hot. I especially love your sexy pout..I'm gonna have to try it. :)
This is delicious, and for some reason I was totally blown away by your eyebrows!! I am wondering if I noticed them before, or if somehow this post and your makeup just brought them to my attention. I agree with a previous post: you look totally hot.
Love, Jean

P.S. I really liked your interview with Anika. Your explanation and description for an international audience was very, very cool.
Love, Jean
Super cool lace and boots.
Loving the modern-old-fashioned look. You look smashing & I love your hat.
That top reminds me of the one I have! You look so so pretty, yet still badass as ever. Love you.

Love this look! Those boots are killer and the lace is so feminine. I love the different pieces you styled to complete this outfit.
Bella! You almost look steam punk! Just a few more gadgets and clocks. I need some more Victorian boots. I'm inspired.
oooooooooh Bella belissima, my love, this is hands down one of my all time faves on you! I feel so inspired, which I always do when I am around you. Can we try the skype date again next Saturday? Am finally better from pneuomonia. I love you so, and miss you miss you. Got your mail, and am exited to do it. Yours, A.
I really feel this post, and have always loved old fashioned items. You look lovely, adore the black and white photo. (reminds me of a silent film still) P.S. I'm excited for you, you'll do well in the Northwest! -xx
Oof, lady! You hit the nail on the head-- I definitely think I'm a modern old-fashioned gal, too. I'm definitely loving all the textures in this outfit!
amazing tights and boots!
there are things about me that are so old fashioned, but others that are perfectly modern and dependent upon technology today.

Great outfit and what a lovely song!
Wow you are referencing so many different eras here Bella, so beautifully done.xx.
I love your lacey vintage outfit!

Virgin Mary bracelet? A close up porfavor.

Such a cool look, from the hat to the seriously funky boots. The lacey details are very pretty, and keeps the outfit from being too severe.
