Feminine Friday and Black History Month

Hello, dear Readers!

I am so pleased to announce that I am doing Feminine Fridays in February for Black History Month once again.  I enjoyed and learned a lot the last time and got very positive feedback.  I hope you are as blessed by this as I am.

I decided not to do a post on one particular woman today;  I thought it would be nice to just look at pictures, as though we were walking through a museum together.:)

They are all so pretty and feminine, aren't they?  Though I have to admit, those collars look very binding.  Those were probably their best clothes; perhaps their everyday clothes were not so restrictive.  Anyway, here I am, not quite so "bound" by fashion:

Yes, it's a bit chilly in here.:)

God bless!

  2. Lovely photo's! It is amazing how women "dressed up" every day and really looked very pretty. Today, we dress down a lot~I love my jeans! These women all look so pretty and feminine. Love and Blessings in Jesus, Rose from CT.
