The season finale of
HBO's Boardwalk Empire was this past Sunday night, and I have to admit, I love a period show/film especially if its done well. Boardwalk Empire definitely was, and watching it was a Sunday night ritual with my husband. Even if I was (admittedly) squeamish at first about the violence and gangster theme in the show, I was won over by the storylines, acting, directing, cinematography, sets, and especially the costumes. I couldn't help but notice the effect that Boardwalk Empire has had lately on fashion, its amazing to see after such a short time! I thought I'd share some of my personal faves I've found that speak to the 1920's - 30's Prohibition era that Boardwalk Empire is set in - a time of Champagne, shorter hemlines, and all night dancing.
(a steal of a vintage style wedding dress!)
And now, because it is Tuesday Shoesday afterall, some shoes...
No flapper girl would be complete without her long pearl necklace.
And no 1920's reception table would be complete without a table lamp!
These lovelies from the MoMA store transform any regular wine glass into a lovely little 1920's inspired table lamp:
Hope you enjoyed some of my Boardwalk Empire inspired finds! Have a lovely Tuesday - xo Annie
