Retro Western!

This is my second retro style T-shirt I have from Atomic Swag Apparel  I just love these tee's so much because of their wonderful prints for example country/western and tropical/Hawaiian. Plus they are  very comfortable to wear and fit really well!
Atomic Swag Apparel are based in California, America and sell ladies, men's and kids retro 1950's inspired t-shirts.
My tee I'm wearing and reviewing here is called square dancers, this design is inspired by three amazing 1950's t.v. shows called The Old American Barn Dance, the Grand Old Opry and Tex Rittler's Ranch Party.
It's made from 100% pre-shrunk cotton, which is great for sensitive skin and is breathable to wear. Comes in sizes extra small to 2X Large.  Also the prints are made using water based ink's so they will always feel soft, never chip, fade or peel away, as stated on the company's website. This tee is currently listed on their website to purchase for $34.34 (Aus) or $25.94 (US).
These 1940's swing trousers are from Vivien of Holloway  I love the caramel colour, which looks great with many different tops, knitwear and blouses.  The trousers are made from a soft fabric so are very comfortable to wear.  The fabric is 80% polyester, 15% viscose and 15% elastane.  There are four stylish buttons down the side, to get in and out off and are high-waisted.  They also have a small pocket on the front.
Actually these trousers have just been re-released to order through Vivien of Holloway and are currently listed for 55 £ or around $95 (Aus). They come in sizes waist: 24 inches and hips: 36 inches up to waist: 38 inches and hips: 50 inches.
Accessories Include:
Boots from Target Australia
Handbag thrifted
Sunglasses from Your one stop pinup shop
Earrings from Colette by Colette Hayman
Bangle thrifted
Brooch by Erstwilder ordered through Vintage Pip
These photos were taken by myself with my tripod and my new canon camera in a local park-lands that have a "very country" inspired look to them as I knew it would be a great backdrop for my outfit and for these blog photos.
In other news I'm back now at work from having a couple of weeks off on leave!

Also I'm on the count down for attending the second annual Rockin Maryborough Festival, which is less than three weeks to go.  This festival will go for the whole weekend in the town I live in.  There will be vintage cars, markets, rock and roll dancing, rockabilly bands, a vintage ball and a pinup pageant. I won the title of Miss Congeniality last year, so I'm not entering this year but I'm looking forward to watching all the other beautiful pinups and having a wonderful weekend!

Until next time!
