20s Fashion Flap...

It's official The Great Gatsby has been released, our months of waiting are finally over...well for most of us that is! Middle Mouse refuses to go until she's read the book... I was done reading five years agoooooo...it looks as if I will have to wait a little longer!! Having said that, what happens when Middle Mouse is in Hong Kong stays with Mini Mouse...a sneaky cinema trip may just work it's way into my agenda!  
 
The trailer has had us in total suspense, the soundtrack is stuck on repeat and the glimpses of Carey Mulligan in glamorous 20's fashion has given us the itch to go shopping immediately!

It appears to not only be having this effect on just us, Alice Temperley has dedicated an entire shop window to 1920s 'Gatsby-esque' fashion and even has a section on the website titled '1920s Bright Young People'...an edit of 20s inspired dressing!
