    You didn't mention one of the best ways to narrow results...perhaps you don't know about it. You can input keywords you're looking for like 'wool skirt' and bypass massive amounts of results by typing a dash or hyphen and then typing a keyword for what you don't want. So if I'm shopping for a wool skirt I would type "wool skirt -black -blue -pleated" to indicate that I definitely want a wool skirt, just please not black or blue or pleats. The hyphen informs the database to remove any entry with that word. I believe this also works for Google.

      Nice to know Etsy uses boolean operators (-, +, *, etc.). Will have to test it out, as most sites won't accept.

      +++ Thank you! In a related note, "collared" made me pause. I don't use the word collared. Maybe because I'm Australian and Australians tend to butcher words, haha. So I've been searching using "collar." This made me wonder if Etsy does stemming like Google (when it automatically includes variants of the word, like: pull could also be pulling, pulled... Bill Pullman). Anyway. I tried searching collared blouse vs. collar blouse. Apparently Etsy doesn't do stemming. You get thousands more results with collared. Collared ftw

      When we first adopted my dog Ranger, he would walk up to my mom and take her hand in his mouth to comfort her. He was so gentle and sweet about it, it was sad we had to tell him mouths don't go on people. We've also had to explain that they aren't for walls, clothes, carpet, rocks, dirt, leashes, the pantry, shoes, cell phones... but he's a good boy and never goes back to a bad habit.

    So proud of you!!! I wish that I could do this, but I am a big plus size lady and the plus sizes in vintage generally only go up to like a size 16 now or are in terrible shape. This is why I am buying older patterns to size up and make 'vintage' clothes for my size.

      I buy aa lot of things at thrift stores, I have a peculiar size so I can never buy tight-ish things without trying them on beforrehand. but I recently bought a beautiful id say fifties pencil skirt, and I put it in the washing mashine, it smelled kinda funky. and then it got completely fucked up and the colours bled on eaach other. I kept it because it may be good for halloween. but oh how sad I was to have ruined that beautiful skirt

    I just want to say thank you for this video. I have been subscribed for a while and admire your style. Finding vintage items on Etsy can be daunting, and as you’ve said expensive, and I appreciate seeing how others search for items to build a vintage aesthetic. Even though I have a vintage accessory shop on Etsy, I shy away from the clothing because I have a hard time picturing how an outfit will come together. I love the idea of trying to recreate a look from a photo.

    • @rachelmaksy

Plus, I received two hats and a cardigan, all authentic 1950's, as gifts!😁

    I actually used a similar technique to find my first true vintage piece (a gray 1940s wool suit with a velvet collar.) It was the first thing that I sought out for a specific event. Normally I just kind of but whatever I can get secondhand as it strikes me from either Etsy or a handful of other online vintage sellers through Instagram.

  • @beatniksvintage
    @beatniksvintage 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    When looking for vintage ALWAYS type Vintage in the search box before anything else. Ex. Vintage wool skirt or Vintage white blouse. That way it will weed out all of the "new" products. Each time you type in a new item, it resets to showing "All" so you have to make sure you always use Vintage every time you type in a new search. And of course, you can also click "vintage" on the sidebar but you have to scroll a lot just to find it.

    I super love your channel ❤️ But I was hoping for much more detail! What kinds of features and cuts and fabrics do you look for when you shop, how to be accurate about sizing (I was like, an inch too small?? Would never work for me haha), do you also have favorite shops that you go back to a lot, what types of items do you have the most luck with, how to get the most out of search results, etc. 🙂 A couple of the things, like narrowing search by size, were confusing, bc 1) you said you don’t actually do that and 2) number sizing makes no sense so someone would miss a lot of potential results that way! Anyway, if you ever did a sequel video to this with a lot more detail that would be great-plus I *would* love to see the results of Etsy shopping and if they fit you, anything expected/unexpected about them, etc ❤️

    Ahh so excited for this video, your style is so cute and I want to buy more vintage but it can be expensive and I still haven't exactly mastered the vintage look

    • @rachelmaksy

      I feel you! Vintage can be super pricy and I usually don't end up buying true vintage for that reason 😂

    I'm not a vintage purist and I'm poor so I almost never search by time period. I just search for the actual item I'm looking for (length, pleats/no pleats, color, fabric) and regardless of what time period it's actually from, it ends up looking how I wanted

    I love Etsy!!! At least 85% of my vintage wardrobe comes from there. I follow slot of my favorite shops on Instagram. Its a good way to get sneak peaks at what's new before it gets added to Etsy. Repeat customers are always welcome.

    • @rachelmaksy
      @rachelmaksy  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes! I've been trying to find more shops that I can check in on every now and then

    I love Etsy. Anyone can run a small business from Etsy, with a bit of effort and have passive income, but also genuine artisans can sell crafts, collectors can get coveted pieces out to the world to enjoy. It's just perfect. And the customer service rivals that of Amazon.

    Rachael, if you are ever in Tampa Florida, you need to visit a shop call La France. It’s a gold mine for vintage clothing, and they have lots of sizes.

    For people interested in 40’s looks I believe the seller that turned up constantly does The Closet Historian channel on TH-cam. She has some pretty interesting videos on building a vintage collection.
