    Rachel Maksy’s channel often shows how to make modern clothing look vintage. It’s been a ton of help to avoid spending too much money. She often wears modern shoes but still makes them work. Her go to color palette seems to be what you like and she just always looks good.

    My favorite part about dressing vintage at work, I work in retail, are the reactions from elderly people, mostly women. They always tell me that they wore the same stuff when they were younger and that they are so happy to see someone my age appreciating it..

    I've been dressing vintage for 2 years now. I use modern clothing and give it a vintage twist because reproduction clothing can be very expensive. I think you did great! Clothing needs to "spark joy" and if it doesn't, don't wear it. For winter I mainly use skirts with knitted over the knee tights. They are a lifesaver! And I only use ballet flats because 1: they are the most comfortable 2: they go perfect with 40s and 50s and 3: because I just can't do heels anymore! Ouch! Also, wool skirts with a slip underneath are super warm. I couldn't go back to jeans. I was afraid of getting stares when I first started but honestly I get more compliments than anything. This era represents me and I feel pretty and strong. You wear what makes you feel like that! You do you boo! You're great!!😘

      Three months in. Vintage-y modern clothes (especially second hand ones) are a budget-saver. I try to dress in style every day now even if it's just curls and cigarette-pants with a modern T-shirt. I even kept it up on my trip to Krakow (although the 12 hour bus ride was not kind to my curls).
      I was also super warm (two skirts, cotton tights and wollen socks) outside but wouldn't feel hot on the bus (I'd lift the skirt up to my knees and roll the socks down, essentially only keeping one layer-the tights).
      I also got quite a few compliments, especially 'wow...you have a LOT od will' cathegory when people realize I wake up at 6:30 to do my hair.

    The skirts and blouses look a lot like what I wore in 1955. A sweater or English jumper would also work for a top.. You would look like my high school friends with a ponytail and saddle oxfords.

    I think reusing pieces is fine! When I'm looking for vintage stuff I try to find things that will work with multiple items that I already have! White/off-white blouses that pretty much match any skirt I pair with it, or finding skirts with colours to match the embroidery on my one blouse. It's helpful to have a colour scheme in mind! I have a lot of pastels for spring and summer, then more earthy colours for late summer/fall and early winter. For me, a piece is worth buying if I can match at least two items I already own with it!

    @-ParisTexas- 5 ปีที่แล้ว +55

    Nice video. The high neck, pencil skirt & straight hair looks very sixties imho.
    Some tight knits would work and is warm. You could also introduce some pattern like polka dot and houndstooth to mix it up and make it younger looking.
    You could add a trenchcoat to your wardrobe. That is classic, but also on trend and works with most vintage styles too.

      Definitely. And they don't have to be bright colors or bold patterns. I liked the burgundy, and the blue of the jeans was a nice break from the earth tones. Some mellow blues and reds would add some variety and "pop" without straying too far from your preference for muted tones. :)

    a) LOVE your glasses- a beautiful modern take on a vintage aesthetic, perfect for being able to switch between modern and vintage dressing, and b) "vintage" is as extreme/ stylised as you want it to be - and if you don't want it to be true to a single particular era or style it doesn't have to be. For what it's worth, I thought you looked fantastic- vintage, but subtle, and certainly not anything out of the ordinary for any office I've worked in. Keep going! 😊

      That bold 🖤 black & white🤍 look combined with the 60s fringe & long locks certainly did capture Fran's fashion forward loving spirit, but the skirt was far too long to be a replica. After all, the mini-skirt showcasing lovely legs was The Nanny's signature style. Either that or her spectacularly slinky full length sparkling gowns.

    These outfits were so cute and you look wonderful! I wear a lot of retro fashion but also mix in various J-fashions. It might help that people always tell me that I look like a high-schooler, but I don't have a problem with looking like an old-lady. I do use a lot of colours (think soft-summer palette) and patterns though along with ruffles and lace. I go swing dancing and a lot of people in that community wear retro or even vintage fashion, and I will say that colour and patterns help a lot. Vintage clothing oftentimes has a lot of lovely details and patterns. Embroidery, pleats, buttons, and trim can definitely help make an outfit more fun and youthful. Minimalistic, muted colours, and clean cuts give an air of maturity and sophistication, which is what a lot of your outfits were, but you still didn't look like an old lady in my opinion.
    It makes me so happy that retro fashion is more popular now.

  • @rachelthome165

    I think the white top with a dark bottom is what's lending the outfits to looks more like a uniform. I feel like even muted tones of colors would help with that! Also, all of these looks so cute on you! You look great in so many different vintage eras! 40's, 50's, and 60's! Major Bridgette Bardot feels from the pencil skirt! Also love your hair tutorials for her hair looks. Those gold glasses are adorable!

  • @meganb4432
    @meganb4432 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    The wool knee socks comment is gold, I live in them down here in Tasmania. Also, you can layer petticoats (cotton peasant style skirts are great, or make one out of flannelette!) under a circle skirt to be very warm. Just finish with a nylon or silk petticoat closest to your skin, so it slides nicely over your socks when you walk, without dragging. During this era, ladies wore a chemise or slip under their outfits, also, which is not only warmer, but prevents gaping bosoms on buttoned blouses.
    The key to looking fresh & young is a tight fitted blouse or turtle neck with a tight wide waist. A wide belt is great, or if you have a wide waistband go for a thin belt. You looked great, though, just have fun exploring your options!

    My Mother was all about buying classics that she claimed never went out of style. . . . In the early 1980's My Mother, pulled out of her closet a couple of suits from the late 1940's, for ME to wear, (I just know they were before I was born, 1961) one was hunter green and the other black. Both had short jackets, cinched in just a bit at the waist, flairing slightly out from there and the skirt of one had inverted box pleats at the bottom of the narrow pencil skirt, to allow ease of walking. I was able to wear them in the 80's and no one knew they were 40 years old!

    How wonderful! I wear the vintage style almost everyday, and it was so fun to see what outfits you came up with. Yes, people stare and it's annoying, but sometimes people are staring not because they dislike it but they are just curious. As for the time and style problems, I have found the more you practice the quicker you become and the outfits look better. Once you find your look, it can take 15 - 20 mins to put everything together. :) You did a great job, and I'm glad you had fun trying it.

    You are a very watchable vlogger - easy to watch, adding that bit of flare and much needed humility to lifestyle vlogging, something that, as you know, can be very self-replicating. But as a non-vlog watcher (for said reasons..and also for being a bit shit at navigating the sea out there) I dig your take. Also I like the fact that you don't 'imperfection' edit. Your editing is real and I love the fact you left in one of your least favourite outfits for example - it show's your process and generally better reflects life.

    I love the last two outfits! I think with vintage skirts it's definitely helpful to wear a tighter top. Vintage skirts were typically long and would show a lot of fabric, so with that burgundy sweater it looked perfect, whereas with the button ups it can seem like there is too much going on. Love seeing videos like this!!

    @theedwardianwriter 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    So interesting to see your little experiment! I’ve always felt best in Edwardian-type styles so started dressing as Edwardian as I possibly can when I began uni. One of the most interesting things I noticed is that most people are pretty okay with the outfits (maybe a weird look or two) but the thing that really pushes it over are the HATS. If I’m just wearing a beret in the winter there’s nothing, but put on a boater hat or large “picture hat”-almost guaranteed a comment! Wild. I’ve also been asked multiple times if I’m religious … which is kind of hilarious because most of the things I wear really don’t conform with any religious garb ideas … I’ll be very interested to see how comments change as I transition into more Edwardian-looking things than just the styling for now.

    Your first and last outfits were my favorite. It's hard to style vintage without being "costumey", so I appreciate your ideas.

    Ok, I just LOVE the first Outfit, it’s SO flattering on you! I don’t know if you are familiar with Doctor Who, but you seriously had Companion-Vibes in this one 🤣👌🏻
    Also I actually really liked the third Outfit and thought it was super flattering on you and your bodytype (even if it wasn’t authentic enough for your likings).
    The jeans and white shirt look is such a classic and still looks modern (if you’re unconfortable to go into Amsterdam in a super vintagy-outfit, I think this look would be a nice compromise as it’s not to striking/flashy and still en vogue) 😊
    Loved that video and format 💖🙌🏻

    What a fun experiment. I enjoyed all of your outfits, even if some where a bit out of your comfort zone. I especially love the one with the pencil skirt. If you feel too much like an old lady in a blazer, you might try a cardigan. I've found that knits keep me more within my modern classic comfort zone, while still looking vintage, while blazers and blouses feel a bit fancier and more old fashioned. Not that that's a bad thing, but for every day, I am more likely to go with a knit top and cardigan over a blouse and blazer. I'm not sure what your every day wardrobe looks like, but you said it was mostly neutral colors. Perhaps adding some bright colors in with your vintage looks will help you feel more young and fresh and less conservative. You may also want to give 60's a try, as that decade has a lot of fun colors and shapes.

    Shirinatra's channel often also show how to make modern clothing look vintage. I think you will find her very like minded. Thank you for your week in vintage.

  • @oldasyouromens

    My uniform at the moment is a pastel blouse or dark sweater, dark skirt, tights, loafers, and a roller set. It's pretty conservative but if you have a skirt that's the right cut (for me that's a circle skirt) and enough feminine detailing with your top and accessories, you CAN DEFINITELY make vintage-inspired super young and fresh-looking, without being obnoxious or grandma-y. Though personally, I've accepted that I was just born a grandma and wear what I want.

    @EVGMoviemaker 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    I thought the third outfit was nice, also kind of BB like! But pencil skirts are a pain, so yeah :P The 'grandma style' problem is so relatable! Most vintage repro pieces are floral or have bright polkadots or something like that, while I also really prefer more muted and darker tones with minimal prints. One of my favourite skirts is knee-length and black, and I always have to remind myself not to combine it with my favourite cardigan, which is a hip-length cream coloured cable knit, because together those pieces make me look like a stereotypical frumpy librarian!

    Sorry for the spam.
    I live in Chicago and we have very cold snowy winters here. I can still wear my skirts and dresses in the winter with no problems.
    I do wear a lot of layers even though it never looks like I am wearing layers.
    For my insides, I wear, underware, a cotton vest, a pair of fleeced lined leggings, knee high socks. Winter boots that go up to my knees, skirts and dresses that go up to or pass the knees, and a slip. A button down sweater or jacket to layer under my coat. Mittens, a hooded hat that I crocheted from a vintage patterned. A coat that goes up to my knees and a scarf that I crocheted. I am always very warm in the winter.
    Plus if I am wearing a dress that has no selves. I add a long sleeved plain t-shirt underneath (a long with a vest, 3 layers) or a long sleeved button down shirt (also with a vest underneath).
    For shoes. I bring my shoes with me to work and change out of my winter boots.

    For your warmth problem: I’ve noticed that adding underpinnings can really help, even as simple as a slip/petticoat to a skirt to keep your legs warm! (I wear tank tops under all of my sweaters too)

  • @minounah
    @minounah 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Often something like a beret, a brooch, a hairpiece/pin, and (as you mentioned) a belt will beautifully pull an outfit together. I think of vintage style as mostly added touches such as those as well as thoughtful, coordinated colors and flattering cuts for women. BTW you rock vintage fabulously! Really, you looked lovely-my favorite was the second outfit! I think 40's is great for you. 50's/60's too, but they can be a bit "sexier" as they emphasized womens' curves and were more "costumy."

  • @samanthatheminimalist
    @samanthatheminimalist 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    The blazer in outfit 2 was super cute but with that combination the outfit reminded me of the teacher in the movie clueless. I think with a heavy knit or just a long cardigan it would be great but maybe not as vintage
