New Ladies and Gents Step Forward
Howdy ladies! My name is Jess and I live in Lafayette, Indiana. I'm newly married (almost 2 months!) and I'm just on the brink of turning 25. I've been in love with the Golden Era for as long as I can remember, and I'm happily settled into my vintage lifestyle with my husband in our 1920s...- Miss Jess
