Some pics of the über cool LA swing crew, which I Facebook-swiped from Chandrae Roettig. I spy some buddies of ours, like Minn Vo, Nick Williams and Katie Anderson. Looking awesome, you guys!

Hollywood & Vine, 1944
Thanks to Starlet Showcase for posting these great photos from a 1944 issue of Life Magazine, a kind of 1940s-Sartorialist look at girls passing the intersection of Hollywood and Vine, in Los Angeles. A nice glimpse of real-life fashion in mid-40’s USA.
