These are the 42nd Street-inspired photos I was talking about yesterday. If I really wanted to, I think I could come up with 50 different outfits inspired by that film since their were so many different female dancers and a handful of different practice scenes before the big show, but for this go around I chose to channel one of Ginger Rogers' looks. Her character had some really, really cute outfits, most often with a toy pup and a monocle as an accessory.  If only I had all that and a good pair of vintage suspenders!

I actually had some of this look styled for fashion week – minus the hat and the suspenders – but I thought the tap shoes might seem a little strange as I walked down the New York City street. Who knows, I might have received some tips!
