style idol: nancy drew

Nancy in the 1930s
Nancy 1930s 
In the early days, Nancy was perpetually in heels, regardless of the situation. She also understood the value of a put-together ensemble, and often included a jaunty scarf.  Oh, and her hats!  I couldn't include it in the polyvore above, but here's a hat Nancy would most certainly have had in her closet.
From book one, Nancy was never far from her blue "roadster."

I have, too! It's my standby costume. Although, ironically, I lost my magnifying glass the last time I dressed up as Nancy.
