So I thought about styling myself reasonably congruently, to have some fun but not go over-the-top with it. I don't see how to add a pic, or I'd show you one I found that I'll default to if something better doesn't catch my interest. :) So would any of you have interesting suggestions?

I'm thinking either victory rolls or a kerchief tied like Rosie the Riveter.

30s and 40s are my fashion loves. This website 1940s-hairstyle-copy-the-top-hairdos-of-1941 (https://glamourdaze.com/2016/01/1940s-hairstyle-copy-the-top-hairdos-of-1941.html) has some great original material to be inspired by.

This pony is like one of my everyday go-tos and I can do it in about one minute (okay, maybe two!):

I also do something like the middle diagram at the bottom of this pic:

Works with hats too!
