Just to add this one:
Are those......early headphones? Never seen anything like them before. But then, I never thought about where the term "headphones" came from either!

I thought I'd revise this interesting thread because I'm always in a quandary about how to dress for work. I live a vintage way of life at home, and I pretty much always wear 1930s-40s, but I'm never completely comfortable doing full-on 100 percent 1930s. I teach for a living, and I feel it would be too distracting. I'm also relatively shy and retiring by nature, and I don't like a lot of attention. So it's always a careful balance for me. I tone down the hair & I don't wear obviously seamed stockings (rayon service weight works perfectly well) & that keeps the look from being too costumy.
In response to Nathalie's original post, I sew everything I wear, so it's not an issue for me, but if I didn't sew, I'd probably find a few dark skirts, a few blouses, and cardigan sweaters. With vintage collars and jewelry, the look will be perfect.
