How to Dress Vintage

Everybody thinks this word, vintage, means old fashioned, but really it is about bringing fabulous trends in fashion back into the current era. The dresses of yesteryear are back in style and that is a wonderful time to take advantage of this beauty. How about a few tips on how to dress vintage without sacrificing a thing.

Pick a Dress

Look at catalogs, look online, go to the shops and find what looks good on you for your body style. If you are five feet tall and voluptuous you probably aren’t going to look for a column or tower dress, but you would look lovely in a flowy vintage dress with an empire waistline and pumps. The empire waistline draws the eyes up and away from problem areas. Going with pumps, or even heals if you can walk in them, adds height and ultimately makes you appear slimmer. But, not every woman feels great in a dress. That is fineIf you are hesitant to go with a dress, consider a pair of silky flowy high-waisted pants and a vintage top. Any shape can be accentuated in this outfit.

Add Accessories

Dressing vintage is easy with the right accessories. Matching a cute dress or exquisite gown with a dazzling choker and cocktail ring will pull together a vintage look in no time. Or with the right outfit, use a shawl or hat to embellish the look. For more formal attire, consider going with smaller stones in jewelry but don’t hesitate to pack a punch with distinct colors. A little black dress can be taken so much further with teal drop earrings and lovely peacock pumps to add personal style to your look.
