Part two of the beautiful period film street style guest posts by Miss Moss. If I were a magazine editor, I'd hire Diana on the spot! I particularly love the Shakespeare in Love one, it gave me a bit of a giggle. Which one's your favourite?
Thanks to everyone who commented on my previous post regarding the Galliano issue. The people who read this blog make me think that the world is full of wonderful people, despite evidence to the contrary at times.
And thanks again to Diana for providing these stunning images - you rock!
P.S. There's been quite a fuss in the ballet world regarding the premiere of Christopher Wheeldon's ballet adaptation of Alice in Wonderland. Have a read of the article I wrote on it for Behind Ballet. Aren't the pictures from the ballet just gorgeous?

I really do love all these outfits (plus those in part one) but the shakespeare in love one totally takes the cake!
these are perfect! the jou jou villeroy image blows my mind! the outfit, the stance, the colour in the background....
the whole thing makes me want to have a bit more fun with my clothes ...
thanks for posting! you always have lovely ones...
the comparison between Elizabeth I & Lynn Yaeger made me smile too. i was a bit hesitant to include it at first because i wasn't sure if others would see the humour in it - i'm glad you did.
I'd so love to see this Alice in wonderland at Covent Garden, it looks so magical.
Such a great post and a wonderful eye to see all these connections.
I am in awe of this series. Seriously, I dress like I would have stepped out of a period film on a daily basis... or at least I try. So I love love love this so much. http://www.avalonnehall.com/search/label/what%20i%20wore
I'm doing a series of outfit photos inspired by films and artworks and paintings. I just did one inspired by Picasso's Boy with a Pipe. Feel free to check it out!
I can't believe I just discovered your and Miss Moss's blogs. In love. Thanks for the inspiration!
I'm loving, loving this series :) And I LOVE that wall behind Colin Firth !!!!
Oh my - I love them all!!! :D
They are all incredible ... and I can't stop looking at them ... but at a push I would have to go with the beautiful earthy simplicity of the 'Out of Africa' number.

Oh, the pairing with The King's Speech is simply divine! Aside from the shoes, this is how I'd love to dress...
Incredible. You could do these forever, and I'd love all of them.
I love miss moss's pairings. She does an unbelievably great job. I have a soft spot for Lynn Yaeger and the Queen. Oh and that Jou Jou Villeroy shot, wow. Heading off to read your article on Wheeldon's Alice in Wonderland...
Such a wonderful series! I especially love the Out of Africa + Cold Mountain comparisons. So perfect!
This is a brilliant selection. The idea, the spirit, and the tones of the clothing really match to the films.
I am so so admiring of Miss Moss's comparison blog posts - I would hire her in a flash too! I love these in particular though as I am a complete unashamed sucker for a period drama. My favourite I think for laughs is The Duchess, for looks, probably the King's Speech. Amazing.
i will never tire of these!
That's really lovely ! Good idea !!
Great post it is so creative and intelligent! Keep up the great work and positives vibes.
Cheers!
Love this series. The outfits are fantastic. I`d totally hire her too, she`s so creative.

These are wonderful! Love the Queen Elizabeth one the best.
great! love this series too. have a wonderful weekend
gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous. particularly loving the modern take on lark rise to candleford:)
Hah! These are great. I wonder if they were actually channelling an era or a certain film when they got dressed that morning, it is perhaps a subconscious decision on their part. Either way it is just brilliant.
This is genius!
I love the "cold mountain" one.
Have a wonderful weekend.
LOVE!
I loved this!! my favorite is "Little women", and I must say that of course my decision is influenced by my love for that movie...
xoxo!
Ahhh yes, fabulous comparisons, Miss Moss is brilliant! xxxxxxx

It`s awesome that work :)
Wow! I do like this second set as much as the first! Miss Moss is very talented!
My favorite has to be the lark rise to candleford : : jou jou villeroy match. I'd wear both versions, haha.
thanks guys, but the credit all goes to Diana :) So glad you enjoyed these though!
miss moss: yep, I definitely saw the humour, love it!
i love this post so much! you're definitely the best at mix and match-ing them!!
yep, she sure is!
This series is amazing. It makes me want to go watch all of the Jan Austen movies on my shelf and take style notes.
ha, that sounds like time well-spent :)
wow wow wow! miss moss never ceases to amaze!! looks like i have to add a few things to the ol netflix queue now ...
I've been stocking up on dvds based on diana's advice too :)
