I am linking up with Jenny and Alphabe-Thursday and the letter is "Z" The girl is Zelda Fitzgerald, wife of F. Scott Fitzgerald. I don't know alot about her, but her photos have always ingtrigued me. I love the clothes from the 20's, so maybe that is it. She was born in 1900 and died in 1948.
Lovely photo...
Look at that hat and coat! A photo with her husband, Scott.
Another...
Ahhh..Zelda is one of my all time favorites. I love reading Fitzgerald. Love the old photos of her...thanks!
ReplyDeleteZelda always intrigued me. From sheltered southern belle to muse of a writer who defined his generation - I loved to read about her here.
ReplyDeleteSuper ‘Zelda’ post – love her pics & Fitzgerald's works! Great memories of a great pair!
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely weekend,
LOLA:)
PS Mine this time is HERE. Hope you can join me!
She was a beauty!

A few months ago I read a book about Fitzgerald's affair with a woman named Ginevra King. She lived in Lake Forest, IL and was the real love of his life. An unrequited love that inspired him to write The Great Gatsby. Too bad really, Zelda was lovely!!
ReplyDeleteLove,
Susan and Bentley
xxoo
one pretty lady :D
ReplyDeleteZelda was a beauty wasn't she...look at those cheek bones! Hope you're having a wonderful day Robin....Maura :)
ReplyDeleteHi Robin,
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by and entering my giveaway. I've entered you for one chance to win. Good luck!
I love vintage photos and could look at these all day. I think it's just that they remind me of a time when life was much simpler in the world. LOVE her bob!
Have a great day!

She looks like she was quite a stunner. I have her hair too.
ReplyDeleteThe roaring 20's seemed like it was such a fun time. I too love the clothes. I didn't realize she died so young. Great Z post.
ReplyDeleteGreat photos. I liked this Z post. She was pretty lovely, wasn't she?
ReplyDelete=)
I adore the 20's and the styles. It is such a romantic period and the clothes reflect that "girls are girls".
ReplyDeletea fairy to look at.
ReplyDeleteCheers!
If you read her biography you will find she was an amazing, amazing character....love the pictures of her...bkm
ReplyDeleteNow I'm intrigued. I love the roaring 20's. I've known all about her and her husband, of course. But nothing really in depth about her. Will look up her biography. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteZelda is gorgeous! And I love the styles of the 1920's, 30's, & 40's. I will have to look her up and learn more about her...She looks amazing in the photos you shared here.
ReplyDeleteBlessings & Aloha!
(oh and so happy to meet you! I love your header photo of your beautiful home.)
Great Z! We both did one on "Zelda's"! Going to check out more of your home...just lovely!
ReplyDeleteWhat lovely vintage pictures. Those clothes are just so charming. That era seems to be so much more filled with romanticism and possibilities. Or perhaps it just seems like simpler times as we muddle through how complicated the world feels somedays.
ReplyDeleteThanks for this charming stop on our little journey through Alphabe-Thursday's letter "Z".
It made me smile.
