In a mind-boggling bit of serendipity, 3 of the entries so far are ladies who took their inspiration from Tippi Hedron's character in "The Birds." The first time that film came to television, my sister and I begged our mom to let us stay up and watch it. After what must have been hours of whining, nagging and moaning, mom finally relented. I had nightmares for a week and I still can't watch that movie!
1. Melissa C. carried a vintage purse. She studied and duplicated the actual make-up from the film.
2. Sheila from the blog Ephemera. Her hat and gloves are vintage.
3. Pamela wore her mom's 1950s mink stole as part of her costume.
Contest entrant #15, Sue sent along pictures from her Tippi Hedron costume she wore several years ago. Everything is vintage and Sue made 4 costume changes throughout the day following the progression of the movie. Ummm, I want that green purse!!!!!!
