Guest Blogger: Fashion Attack Vintage




There is no denying that Gene Kelly is a national treasure, not to mention an amazingly skilled dancer and versatile actor. But my favorite films of his usually involved him playing the role of a handsome sailor! This coming August, Gene would have turned 100 and to celebrate this milestone, I put together a little sampler of vintage inspired pieces based on two of his most noteworthy pictures, “On The Town” and “Anchors Aweigh”! Everything is priced under $50.00, so go ahead and treat yourself to some nautical delights! And don’t forget to tip your captains hats to honor one of Hollywood’s greatest legends J




My favorite Gene Kelly film, 1949’s “On The Town”
