Thank You For the Big Schnoz, Great-Grandma Sophie

Like every modern vintage lovin’/aspiring DIY hipster in Austin, TX, I will attempt to sell old clothing.
Wait. “Old clothing” makes it sound smelly; like it’s been sitting in some shut-in’s trunk in the basement for 35 years. These are “carefully selected vintage styles most likely owned by old ladies who took better care of their dresses than their children”.
SGF and I did a photo shoot this weekend for my impending Etsy page. These are some out takes.
What do you all think?
Or better yet, does anyone want to buy one of these pieces?
Girl not included, but beer can definitely is.

    You are so beautiful.

    I find it hard to order clothing on line because I'm an extreme hourglass. (Strangely, this shape actually makes it easier to fit into vintage clothing though.)

    Excited for your Etsy anyway.

    Oh my god — that last dress? My mom had that dress and wore it to church about 78,001 times. And in a family picture.

    Schnoz!?
    More like the height from which you gaze down at your subjects with imperious disdain.

    Montag- I have no idea what the heck that means.
