Over the years I have done several Easter blog posts but never one completely dedicated to Vintage Easter images. Since Easter is around just the corner and I have another themed post lined up for the week of, let’s do these Vintage Photos today!

Let’s take a look at our stylish & cute photos.

Here are the ladies again but they managed to find two men to walk them down the boardwalk for their own “Easter Parade”. “Janet, Moe, Claire, John & Me. April 17th, 1949”.

The next photo is from an Easter post I did on “1920’s Photos of Toronto’s Easter Parade“, but is so amazing that I wanted to make sure you did not miss it.

Take a look at these fantastically dressed 1920’s women in their version of a tuxedo complete with top hats. The details are incredible. From their bobbed hair, majorette boots and long scarfs coming from their hands (so many questions) it’s all outstanding!

In 2016 I did a ‘Vintage Photo Tuesday‘ post on ‘Images of people in front of their houses‘ (1920’s-1960’s). I created it because I had started to notice so many photos of people posing in front of their homes, that I felt it just had to be a post. Well several years later, I have “saved” a bunch more that I would like to create a part 2 for you all to enjoy.

Let the fun begin!

I love my plants and the moment I saw this 1930’s photo of a young woman sitting on the front porch of her house (technically the front!) surrounded by all these beautiful plants I just had to share!

I think this photo is late 1930’s but it also could be early 1940’s (I’m really thinking 1930’s). ANYWAYS it’s a vintage image of an older couple posing with a young woman holding a dog. They are all dressed up in hats and lovely dresses (and one suit). I especially love our young woman’s dress & that awesome circle rattan purse. Super cool! I wonder where they are going?
