Freddies of Pinewood!

Hi all!
This week I'm going to review these two awesome outfits by UK vintage inspired clothing company Freddies of Pinewood
This company has been a favorite of mine for around three years. They're a favorite because of their high-quality denim jeans, skirts, dungarees and 1940's work-style blouses.  All their garments are made in England and are very true to the 1940's and 1950's era.
The first outfit I'm featuring this week is this cute 1940's work-style blouse and brown companion 1940's denim pants.  These pants actually come with a removable bib, they can been worn as dungarees as well.  I love the idea you can wear choose to wear just the pants or as dungarees.
The pants are made from a 100% cotton denim and are high-waisted.  They come with four buttons, on the four front patch pockets. Plus a zip and button, down the side to get in and out of.  I'm wearing a size 34".  These 1940's style pants are so comfortable to wear throughout the day. I have own these for a few years now and I still love to wear them. There are many sizes still available to purchase on the Freddies of Pinewood website.
The pink with brown poker dots 1940's work blouse, is made of 100% cotton, has small buttons down the front and a front patch pocket on the left side.  This exact top is now sold out, but there are many other colours to choose from. I'm wearing a size 14, I find it a little tight to wear around the waist-line, because of the waistband. I think a size 16 may have been a better fit for me.
Accessories Include:
Brown boots from Target Australia
Handbag from Word from the Bird 
Bangles by Los Flamingo 
Sunglasses from a local boutique
Brooch by Rock n Retro
The second outfit I'm featuring this week by Freddies of Pinewood is this black denim jeans skirt and multi-colour seasucker blouse.  Unfortunately for you this blouse is now sold out on the website.  I just love all the colours and the cute red vintage style buttons down the front.  As this blouse doesn't have a waistband you can tuck it into a pair of high-waisted pants or a skirt, like I have in these photos.
 The black denim skirt is made of a lightweight denim and has belt-loops and a adjustable waistband with two snaps. I do love this idea, as you can wear the skirt a bit more loser or tighter around the waist, it depends on your preference. It also has a hidden side zip, two front deep pockets and two back pockets. The black version is now sold out on the Freddies of Pinewood website but there are the blue, green and red options available. I'm wearing a size 34" and it fits perfectly on me.
If you're after a great pair of 1940's or 1950's denim skirts or pants, I highly recommend on ordering yourself something from Freddies of Pinewood  They also sell men's vintage inspired jeans and tops.
Accessories Include:
Saddle shoes by Bettie Page Shoes purchased with Nicole Jade Boutique
Western belt from a local clothing boutique
Bangles by Splendette
Brooch by Deer Arrow
Earrings by Revere folie
