We love your luscious red locks, Vintage Queen no 58

February 8, 2010 by Lena

With her amazing red locks – so very Rita Hayworth – our lovely Vintage Queen number 58 looks like a Forties war time pin-up. A huge vintage fan, Britta lives and breathes the vintage lifestyle every day from her love for history to immaculate sense of style.

My name is Britta and I live in Stockholm, but I’m originally from Pajala, a small village in the north of Sweden. I’ve done some studying at university for a couple of years but now I’m taking it slow, just trying to figure out what I want to do next in my life. I spend my days listening to old jazz from the Twenties or watching some good TV series like Poirot.

I grew up watching old black and white movies, both Swedish ones and Chaplin, Laurel & Hardy as well as movies with beautiful ladies with even more beautiful clothes that left me daydreaming for hours. I’ve been interested in history for as long as I can remember, especially WWII.

Even though there was a war going on people still managed to dress fabulous. Besides loving history I am a bit of a nerd when it comes to sci-fi.

    You are just beautiful, I love your hair, your eyes are amazing and I so wish 40′s wannabes would look at your eyebrows, just perfect. I see a lot of Maureen O’Hara about you, could there be some Irish blood in the family? Good Luck!

    Thanks to all of you!

    Thank you Sheila! I must admit that i’m not that good at fixing my eyebrows so i’m glad you think that they look good :D And sadly no irish blood :( But thanks, Maureen was a real beauty!
