I Got A 1950s Makeover
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 20 มิ.ย. 2024
- So for our decades series last year we traveled back through time until the 1960s - so I decided to go back another decade and put together an entire look based on the fashion, hair and makeup trends of the 50s! What do you think of the finished look?
A big thank you to Kayley Melissa and Gabriela Hernandez for helping us out with our midcentury makeover!

HELLO FRIENDS! sorry for the delay - i got lost in a pile of history textbooks! i hope you guys enjoy the very belated addition to the decade fashion series! xoxo, saf
❤️
Luv youuu💜
Safiya Nygaard you remind me of peggy carter in the thumbnail!
Amazing as always❤
Safiya Nygaard I LOVE YOU SO MUCH SAF I LOVE THE DECADE SERIES AJSKAOAO
This was wonderful.
I was born in the mid-50's. My mother was in her mid-20s then. I remember her in the late-50's "putting herself together" before my father came home.
I remember the smell of the pancake makeup, being yelled at to be quiet while she tried to draw on her eyebrows and eye-liner. Careful choice of the dress and matching shoes. If they were going out, she always had her gloves and scarf. She finished it all off with "Lily of the Valley" cologne and her rhinestones.
I thought she was magnificent.
Thanks for the memories. Mom passed away a decade ago, but my favorite picture of her is a small portrait of her in 1950's high style. All done up like you in this video, but with her rhinestones and a little Mona Lisa smile.
That's amazing
I loved reading this comment!❤❤❤
Love this comment it just painted such a great picture/ memory.
I literally just teared up, WOW
This was such a sweet comment, thank you so much for sharing.
we stan an antique queen
illymation 💖
We also stan a musty moth balls from the corner of the attic queen too ❤
Illy!!! 😊💞
ILLY!!!!!! You're the cutest ♥
OMG ILLYMATION
I feel like safiya would be the coolest history teacher ever dressing in outfits that corresponds to what they are learning about like wow
That was the way my grandfather was. He was a civil war re-enactor and sometimes he would bring videos of his unit in to show the students.
@@michaelinthebathroom7560 he sounds like a great teacher
@@taylordeason727 He was. I wish I got to know him better, but sadly he passed when I was a baby...
omg yes
like holly holdiday from glee!!
People in the 50s knew the importance of pockets on dresses
Yess
It's almost like the people in the 1850s (and 1750s) had seperate garments that were as big as a purse.
yeah, the lack of pockets is a very recent thing actually. in the 18th and 19th centuries (speaking about western fashion here), the pockets were large enough that you could fit a hell of a lot of stuff in it. i’m not exaggerating either, sometimes people used their skirt supports in the 18th century (like, when the dresses were extremely wide but not all that thick) as pockets. that’s why they’re called pocket hoops sometimes.
@@greadams1858 Back then the pockets were separate garments tied onto the waist under the clothes with slits put In for access
@@bluelol4843 I've heard you even could put a whole chicken in those pockets :D
I really need Safiya to run into a store and yell “WHAT YEAR IS IT?!” when in one of these decades get-up XD
Yes!!!😂😂😂😂
😂 hahaha that would make the video funny!
Yyyyyyyeeeeeeeeesssssssssssssssss
Omg! Hehe
@Elli Anhna Totally. (Jan Griffiths).
I love that saf doesn’t just go in with whatever she wants. She actually does research and shows respect to the culture at that time
keely roberson She always does such thorough research! One of the reasons why her videos are always great quality :)
Research and all is fine but sometimes the delay in posting videos is rather annoying. I hope she becomes more consistent in this respect.
Ritika Juneja she posts VERY well thought out, long, researched and put together videos a couple of times a month, almost once a week. Is that not good enough for you? It’s free content, get over it.
@@ritikajuneja4629 I always struggle with this kind of criticism, because it sounds to me as you were entitled to her videos. She owes nobody anything. She's working independently and is putting a lot of work in her videos, so it's hard to keep a strict consistency. Just be happy that she produces such thoughtful videos.
Ritika Juneja She does always say sorry for the delay. I mean she has a life too you know, things happen. I much rather watch a well-researched video once a month than a bad poorly researched video many times a week. I bet this is not the only channel you watch so I don't understand how that can bother you so much.
My grandma even though it’s 2020, She’s still staying with her 50s style and even spends a LOT of money just to get her favourite style.Its honestly amazing and I’ve started to get it from her now. XD
Legend says the tree branch is still on timeout

I feel like this look suited your figure and face shape the best out of all the other decade looks you've done...anyone else agree?
She looked SO CUTE
She does look very beautiful, and while I might be a little partial (I dress in 40's/50's inspired fashion everyday) I do think she looks the best in it. That is sort of part of the 50's look though. Petticoats/girdles/bullet bras were there to help give all women that iconic hourglass shape. Bullet bras helped a flatter chest look full, petticoats gave the illusion of hips to those that didn't have them. By wearing things that make your top and bottom half look bigger, and your middle the smallest, then it helps all figures look like the ideal figure. So the classic new look 50's style really looks great on anyone because the foundation garments help give everyone that shape!
Oh I think I love the '80s so much on her
YESSSSS exactly my thought
Pink Poodle Crafts I so agree! She looked glamorous, and beautiful and cute all at the same time. 😍
I see all those people saying in the coments: I wish the 50s style would come back so I could wear those pretty dresses or formal wear. You don't have to wait for these trends to come back! Dress the way you want. I dress in 1950s vintage everyday, trust me, dressing the way you want bursts you with confidence.
Felipe Faraj I too dress in the vintage style. I joined a swing dance club in college and never looked back! So fun! Dressing in this style just feels so classy.
Rowan Jalso I also dress daily in 50s, it’s not that hard once you figure out what you’re doing and I really love it!
Ugh I really want to start dressing like it's the 1950s but I'm so broke
After investigating this particular time period- i fell in love! Haven’t messed with anything yet, but im always looking in articles and traditional home decor, clothing, and music of that period.
Kind of hard when were i live even public school has uniforms,it's very hard to be unique
I love how classically beautiful she is, yet unapologetically herself. I love it. Also you must have felt so cute at Disney!! One of these days, I will go to Dapper Days. Oh the fun that could be had.
Dear 1950's,
Please send us *TOILET PAPER*
Sincerely,
2020's
lol this is the one thing that i was so confused about during quarantine. like i get stocking up on food and shampoo but why toilet paper?! at least its better now. lol
Lol smae
Same
I saw something where a guy got coronavirus and he said he had diarrhea but nobody really knew about the symptoms at first so I don’t know what started the toilet paper craze
Bruh use water
I hope she does this all the way to the 1700s and walks around wearing a powdered wig yelling “THE BRITISH ARE COMING” 😂
This is amazing!!😂😂
Just an innocent Pomegranate yes!!
xD Oh gosh! Curious, but I don't think history books go back that far in years, so it'd be hard to find references
Just an innocent Pomegranate woah I’ve seen you before
Hahaha!!!
Internet done right * claps in awe *
Η αγαπημένη μου ελληνιδα TH-camr τοπ σχόλιο στην άλλη αγαπημένη μου, θα κλάψω
Χαιρετίσματα από το Texas!
Κλαίρη Δημοπούλου you mean internet done right *claps in awe*
I love Saf’s videos bc it’s like a history lesson in the most fun way possible. I swear I’ve learned more from her videos than I have in any history class I’ve ever taken😂
My school has a dance every year and the theme this year is the 50s and my first thought is to watch this video 😂
Ur school sounds so fun!
I wish my school was like thay
Lol not anymore. *cries in quarantine*
Mine too but we hade different theme every year we also had a school day that almost everyone was excited for “wear whatever u want day” but now that we are Quarantine we can’t do this :(
AHHH- so how did it go?!! 😂
Since the pandemic hit and stuff-
And you wrote that a year ago..
I really love that she puts research into her videos. It’s not just “oh, this looks old. Let’s use it.” She cares about her content☺️
400th like😄
I feel like she actually picks things she would have wanted to wear if she lived(was older) in that era. All her looks suit her personality.
*cough*unlike buzzfeed*cough*
felilili ooh. OOOOOOOOOOH.
felili i swear i was gonna comment bout buzzfeed, especially when ladylike did pin-up style
I showed my Nanny (grandma) your final look with the car and she said you had everything done perfectly (although she wasnt sure about the makeup since she didnt wear any)! She was also very jealous of you being in a belair (her and my poppy (grandpa) used to own one and she still has it as her all-time favourite car) 😊
Your nanny sounds cuteee
+
I call my grandma my nanny too. And she seems sweet
Aww that's so cute
because I'm Mexican i call my Grandma "Mama Tere" that stands for "Mother Teresa" because Teresa is her real name
I wish we had parlors where they can makeover you based on the decade and what decade suits you
I saw these teenagers blasting musing, laughing, and dressing like 50s teenagers. I asked them if I can join and now I AM the 50s.
I love how she acknowledged everything that was going on at the time. We love an educated queen 😍
Idana Vitale you’re not alone, haha. I just came back from a band rehearsal and instead of meaning to say "Fruits are weirdly shaped," (it was a weird conversation) I ended up saying "Fruits are weird instruments."
Confirmed: Saf belongs in the '50's.
Side note tho, I love how much effort she puts into these looks to be as accurate as possible. Makes the video way more enjoyable than someone just doing a general guess on it.
she basically looks like a 50's time traveler who just finished baking a cake or something
Or aspic
The shirt waist dress was such a HUGE part of the 1950’s; it really needs to come back. So flattering.
i showed my nana (who was a teenager during the 50s) this video and she loved it so much
Just some more Yeemo trash aaaw
yEE
Aw that's so awesome!
My grandma wore pin curls to bed and used hair covers into her 80's
that is awesome!
Man she actually works hard with every video she does I respect that
I really love when she says "Alright"
“And women would have their one hairstyle tat they just stuck with”
LIKE MEEE
lol me
im way too lazy to do anything with my hair cuz its so long
@@abigailgutierrez8405 I have long hair and when I was in school, I would have 1 style for 2-3yrs and people thought I spent hours on it when it took me just less than 5mins
mine is long non-brushed hair in despret need of a trim and i like it like that
Mine is so long that when I do a bun it just flops so I do a very long braid.
Mine looks like Ron's hair in goblet of fire
Why is no one mentioning how AMAZING the hairstylist did??
I maybe just trying to show support, one hairstylist to another.
nope the stylist is realy bomb af
Kayley Melissa is amazing! Check out her TH-cam channel 😊
It was ok. She should have let her curls dry for longer and done a smaller pin curl.
She really is. Did a great job with the products used at the time. I remember that Aqua Net hair spray in the bathroom cabinet - right next to the Pond's cold cream!
@@lilrinna I think it was PERFECT
Can’t wait for “I got a Victorian makeover” I feel like that would be Safs natural aesthetic with the dark colors/mourning vibes
Oh yes
yes!!
That would be awesome to see
Morticia Addams is her mother
Ohhh definitely! And a 1920s one
saf: "cool cats"
my mind: hey all u cool cats n kittens its carol here from big cat rescue
My mind is cursed anything that mentions Carol and cats I just think of Tiger king and all the memea
That was a throw back oh my god
"it's hard to come up with just one look that defines 2018 style."
It's SUPER easy to define the 2020 style:
Nice top + PJ/sweat pants; and long, bed-head hair in desperate need of a trim. :D
😂
TRUE LMBO
Yesssssssss, actually It's sad you described me :(
“ Get in loser were going shopping grocery shopping” 😂😂😂😂
I love your username 😂😂😂
Jimin’s Nipples my mom when she’s trying to be cool
@jimin's nipples
First of all that username.........
I loves it so funny
Like meh mom lol
Im also army
😂💀
This is why Saf deserves every one of her subscribers - the amount of time and effort that goes into these videos is phenomenal! And it really shows - real quality content! Buzzfeed lost an absolute gem 💙
SO TRUE
I am proud she left because she has shown she can definitely do her own channel and make amazing content
Hasn’t buzzfeed tried to copy some of her videos before? They’re also unoriginal.
Kitty Love i know theyve made fun of her and i wouldnt put it passed them to copy
Funny thing: I've always liked the 1950s and 1960s for the use of gloves in fashion. With shows like MadMen, Pan Am and That Girl. Gloves have always looked so pretty, and they just complete the look.
The “get in loser we’re going shopping.....gROCERY shopping!” Made me laugh so hard
Saf's dedication to her videos is gold. She could easily go "okay,that's it" but she keeps moving the line. I mean, she found an effing 50's car! That's dedication in doing her job perfectly. Also,I will never understand where she finds the self-confidence to go out compeletely out of today's style and not having a problem with standing out.
Is it me or did she just give us a full on history lesson on the 1950s fashion I feel like I can write a complete exam on this topic and pass with a 100/100 lol love the video
Todd Jones Women are more concerned nowadays about their careers than about looking ‘sexy’ and ‘desirable.’ Not saying I don’t love feminine fashion, but the time we’re in now is the best era for women since they’ve been oppressed for a long time.
Ya lol
Omg my teacher had my class do a 19 era stuff whatever we want and every one did a boring thing either about wars or women wroking while i did fashion which got me an upgrade in class
Yup! But I'll pass on the Nasa spaceship bras
luv sam I mean it was the glamour side
i LOVE the 50s silhouette!! a few years ago at high school we had a sock-hop themed dance, so i picked out a 50s vintage evening dress, and it's probably one of my favorite dresses i've ever worn
There's an English teacher at my highschool who dresses like this almost everyday. She would definitely approve!
I majored in costume design in college with an emphasis in period fashion. There is a huge difference between actual vintage and vintage reproduction. Stores like Unique Vintage (which is one of my favorite stores to shop at when I need a vintage fix) that sell vintage reproduction fashion make the clothes with modern undergarments in mind so wearing them with a vintage style bullet bra is going to make them fit very weird and look wrong because they don't have the propper darts to accomodate the odd shape. Also the reason bras were that shape wasn't because of missles or anything to do with Freud. Actually it was because the technology at the time was changing because of new materials created fir the war that were now available for designers to use (like synthetic fabrics and certain types of foam used to pad bras). Before that all bras were soft satin cups with no padding. The problem was they were still figuring out how to work with the new materials and didn't yet know how to mold the padding to a natural breast shape so they sewed a seam on the bottom edge and made a cone shape.
Taylor Romano where did you go to school?
I think it's so interesting to see how the construction of the dresses reflect the decades they were made in. The vintage dress worked perfectly with the undergarments that it was intended to go with, whereas the modern dress was inspired by the 50s silhouette but obviously couldn't work with the genuine 50s clothing.
You tubers doing the same challenge: ahh this is going to be easy let’s just o to Walmart
Saliva:we need to find an expert and study about it before we get start
Saliva?
SALIVA 😂😂😂
SaLiVa
Doesn’t saliva mean spit in Spanish... 😂
@@puglover6113 saliva is the proper word for spit in english
Fun fashion fact: the New Look, was actually inspired by Christian Dior's mother
I really appreciate Saf's commitment to doing things accurately. The final look was SO COOL and really felt true to the time. Freaking awesome job
queen of accuracy!! th-cam.com/video/99f0oH45TVc/w-d-xo.html
I realized that she looks EXACTLY like my nana did in the 50s
Right? And she looked so pretty too, like a girl from a magazine! :D
Im the 1000th liker
Safiya is one of the few stand out youtubers today. You can tell that actual work and effort go into her video and doesn't just churn out youtube topics that are currently trending for the sake of views. Even if it is a topic that has been tackled by 1000 other youtubers hers will always stand out for being well researched and from her unique point of view. Which seems to be showing a genuine interest and curiosity in the topic. Added to that is Safiya's sense of humour that just makes great content that I always enjoy whether I have an interest in 1950s fashion or not. I don't think you could define Safiya's content as any one thing, like comedy, beauty, sketch, educational, curiosity because her videos are often all these things rolled into one. It's like she has taken the educational and research style of videos and applied it to pop culture and integrated it with her sense of humour.
I don't know what the point of this is, other than that kind of hard work and originality is so hard to find on youtube these days (even among big youtubers that have been around for years) that I have to call it when I see it.
Underrated comment. I agree completely. It's hard to find content on TH-cam that is well rounded in so many different areas, and Saf has really mastered it.
Agreed. The Adele of TH-cam
Agreed 👏
Agreed
I absolutely love clothing from the 50s. I try to keep the fit and flare skirts in my wardrobe because they make me feel pretty and feminine. Skirts, in my opinion, are way more comfortable than pants. I love that other people also like this type of fashion and would like to wear it. ❤
I love everything about this look. The way Saf paid attention to even the smallest details (such as undergarments) really shows how much research she put into it. Also that bullet bra, kudos to her for wearing that.
I'm not joking but Safiya looks exactly how my grandmother would dress up in the 50s. She used to be a model for a small high end clothing store in Corpus Christi and would always get free clothes from them. She's 83 now and still a gorgeous woman.
EDIT: my grandma passed away the day before Thanksgiving 2022. She died peacefully and was still as beautiful as she was back in her prime RIP grandma!
AliSakurai
Haha my grandma was being born in the early 50’s
But her mom (who was born in the 20’s (still alive. Congrats great grandma)) was a model for several different clothing stores and would also get free clothing from all of them. She’s still pretty beautiful.
And then I have a couple of other models in the family, like my cousin. He’s an adult now. (I haven’t seen him in years so I don’t know his age) He’s gone into a very goth style, which really suits him.
That’s so wonderful! Does she still have some of the clothes?
@@lilrinna A few. My granndpa had a favorite one in his wallet and would say that, that was the only time he liked her. We knew he was joking of course.
Wow I used to live in Corpus!
WOAH!! I live in Corpus Christi too
This woman is incredible in the stuff she puts out for the viewers. A culture trip down the history lane with such social analysis shows she is not just a beauty, but a beauty with brains! Alright! (Safiya style)
I agree!
5:18 Looks like the curvy appreciation started earlier than we all thought. XD haha LOVELY VIDEO! VERY well put together.
we actually have a boutique in my small town (the town is small but very touristy for the nature around us) and they have nearly exact remakes of popular fashion from the 50s to the 80s. its very cute
"Husband number three... YOU'RE OUT!" Living for Tyler's commentary in this lmao
Kaci Littlefield yes to this!!
yupyupyup
Kaci Littlefield we all need that chaotic energy
This makes me wanna change my whole aesthetic to the 50s.
BO$$
DO IT!
Do it
I'm alreading working on it! I suggest dresslily for the dresses and accessories, they're affordable, wearable and adorable.
Ikr
“Hello cool cats” Carol Baskin is quaking
I thought the same 😂
CaNt CoNvInCe Me It DiDnT hApPeN
When you were posing by the car you reminded me of the man of the house who just washed, shined, and polished his car and now he is admiring his car
40's to 60's must have been crazy. Imagine having to rebuild your whole weardrobe completely every decade.
Why are ppl so mad 😂 They went from war to miniskirts in 2 decades! That’s a big change, that’s all.
From the photos I saw of my mom and aunts, they didn't. Of course they sewed most of their own clothes so newer fashions would get added in fairly consistently, but reworked hand-me-downs were standard. My mother (born mid 1930s and one of five daughters) didn't have a new unworn dress until her wedding.
and now with fast fashion we have people changing their whole wardrobes every season...
@@wayweirdfun5577 seems like based on old photos, movies, tv, magazines, other resources early parts of decades continue the past decade. early 90s definitely had 80s influences. early 80s didn't seem like what you think of stereotypical 80s.
They would make alot of their own and alot of the time they would take what they could and remake it in to suit
Most people like my grandma and great grandma had to sew there on clothes which my grandma ended up being a fashion diseigner (I can’t spell sry) and my other grandma who grow up in Hawaii used LEAVES to make her clothes
I didn’t realize how iconic the ‘50’s were until I noticed how familiar the final outfit was
Google the words "Mid Century Modern"
21:56 Honey, how was your day at school?
Can you look at the road?
My dad was born in the 50s and I’m only 12 starting to feel like my dad is really old
My grandad was born in the 50s 😦
Safiya:drives around town
Conspiracy theorist:time travel is real
Shane Dawson's next video: So basically people have been seeing a mysterious woman driving around in an old car who looks like she's from... 1950...
Omg yes
I laughed way more than I should have 😭😭😭
@@seraphinelovee you forgot to say "👐hey, what's up you guys, yes👏"
@@seraphinelovee omg you forgot *hey what's up you guys. yes*
Oh and I don’t know if you’ll see this but PLEASE do the 1912 fashion! Like what Kate Winslet wore in Titanic!! I ADORED those outfits! Especially with the huge hats! Swoon!!
Komerican10 AGREEEEDDD
Omg yess
YES PLEASEEEEE
OMG YEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSS
Ohh yes - and 1920s flapper look!
I *LOVE* 50s-inspired fashion! I'm with you on the bullet bras, but I love the silouhettes and the general style of the dresses. I plan on having a significant portion of my closet taken over by 50s-style outfits in the near future.
Legend has it to this day the branch is still in time-out
I think bullet bras were great for new moms, as it probably allowed for nothing to be pressing against the nipples, which would be very uncomfortable immediately after giving birth, and would allow space for cloth to be tucked in to absorb breast milk, which often leaks for a while after giving birth, without it showing through the cup, and also helping to avoid soggy clothes in public. The 50s was also a time when people obsessed with modernizing everything. Household appliances were getting more and more common and efficient, the space race was in full swing, and there was an obsession with the future and sci-fi in books, and radio programs. So, it probably appealed to people at the time for both practical and fashionable uses.
What an awesome thought, about how great they might have been for new moms! Thanks for sharing that!
Whoa that actually makes sense.
Now that is the most interesting thing I've heard about underwear. Thank you for that
Those are great reasons to use the bullet bra! Now I have a new found respect for it. Thank you. I'll prob miss this style now when I have kids
I never thought of this but as a former breastfeeding mom I can definitely see how much that would have helped!!
Safiya is just so good; always delivering such well structured, thought out, informative yet extremely entertaining videos, and with intelligent commentary. THANK YOU AND LOVE YOU SAF!!!
Angika Dewri Completely agree!
I would love to see you take look into the fashion of the 1940s. It's one my favorites decades.
ive always loved the 50s' style dresses and makeup. i just think the dresses are beautiful and the makeup is so pretty.
I wouldnt mind seeing a 1920's video if you are looking for another decade video? I loved that this one involved experts, history, facts, where the inspirations came from, comparisons, etc.
Personally, I have always been a big fan of the 1920s from the era and big events happening, the fashion sense, the dancing or social outlets, the change from then to now, and I would love you take on it.
You do not have to of course, just an idea in case you are ever thinking about another era.
I hope she just goes back in time as far as possible. It would be cool to see her do Victorian fashion!
Oh and please get some tips from karolina zubrowski!
Safia doing a 1920's inspired look? Now I'm curious. I'd be surprised if she goes out in public like that too!
My mom heard your “theme song” for the video and she said
*” Ohh is that that pretty girl that always wears black”*
Can't stop laughing XD
Awwwwh! You're mom sounds sweet
Aww that's so nice!
XD
That sweet
22:04 when I was with my sisters and dad in the car We saw passed through that McDonald's and it was not that far from where I live
My grandpa actually owns a car from fifties. It’s a Ford Model A really fun to drive in since it has an open back seat
Edit: it’s at least seventy years old so maybe it’s from the forties
well my mom is 70 and was born in 1950 its probably from the 50s.
Safiya, I don't know if it was intentional on your part BUT I truly appreciate all the images of beautiful Women of color in this video. For myself and my children ( who watch every single one of your videos) it makes a difference and it leaves an impact. Thank you and loved, loved this video. 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
I was thinking the same thing as I was watching
What does this have to do with the video? No offense tho I noticed it too sorry if it sounds rude
I'm sure it was intentional!! Especially since there was such few representation in that time period. I've noticed she really tries her best to represent poc in all her videos. And I hope she's knows how much we all appreciate it.
@@jordanreeves384 it has nothing to do with the video, per say BUT it says a lot about Saf. And I greatly appreciate her even explaining that the 50's werent all cute and perfect. Segregation and racism were very huge and women of color weren't considered beautiful by society's standards then.
Came here to say the exact same thing ! Also i wish Saf would explore more of her Indian side of fashion history, it would be sooo interesting !
I love how much research she puts into these! They always turn out so great!
she would be a weird root
props to safiya for being so in-depth when it comes to her decades series, doing so much research & consulting experts!
I doubt you’ll ever read this Safiya: but I love your side burns. I know as women it’s easy to pick our selves apart (and everyone else picks us apart anyway), but they are beautiful and I’m glad you keep them. 💕
QUEEN SAFIYA IS BACK AND I MISSED HER EVEN THO SHE WASNT GONE
haha SAME
hey, i dont like promoting on other videos, but could you check G.J Lifestyle videos? she’s new here so she needs some support 🌻🌻 have a good day!
Same here
true
SAME
You would've been such an iconic beauty in the 50s, Saf! It suits you so well!
Abigail Mac She is an iconic beauty present day as well.
@@arios1083 Tbh she's just a fashion/beauty icon LOL
But then she wouldn't be here
I actually used this video for a homework assignment
I love the fifties dresses. It is pretty much my everyday look, except my dresses are about knee length.
my jaw dropped when i saw that car...the outfit, everything, was great, but THAT CAR. i want that car. i would have been screaming in delight.
Same I want an old car not from the 2000s but like the 1900 century
My dad fixed up a 50's Doge royal and is fixing up a superbee from the 60's and the royal has no seat bealts
i loveeeeee chevys
Gonna say it. 1950´s dressed are cute as heck and should make a comeback.
That's why he/she said dresses, not bras honey.
YEESS!
I have a dress really similar to 50’s style for cotillion
I agree
Agreed!
this was a lot of help for me, since my school is having home coming week and the theme this year throwback week and one of those day's is 1950's dress up day. But it was really hard to find ideas of what to wear, how to do, how to do my hair , and etc. So again thank you so much for this fun video.
I'm glad she did research on 50's fashion and knew what she was talking about!❤❤❤
Omg your hair looked awesome, she did such a great job.
Ana Murray melissa is generally great at hairstyles
Saf- this might sound weird, but thanks for speaking so clearly in your videos. My mom loves watching your vids, but she's half deaf (due to a brain tumor from a few years ago). So it's harder for her to understand slurred/rushed speech. She told me a few days ago that she's so glad to find a great TH-camr with such a clear voice.
Thanks Saf!!❤
Cute name bean ?

I've watched this video a good 10 times and it never gets old idk why I'm so obsessed the 50s
My new favorite out of context quote from this would be:
"My horse is saddled, and I am Girttled"
Safiya would be GREAT as a time-traveler
LittleRavenMist This comment deserves way higher likes.

Bullet bras make me laugh cause i keep imagining how awkward it would be to hug someone

*THE DRESS HAS P O C K E T S*
IncrediBelleJessi OHMG 1950’s KNOWS WUSSUP
I had to scroll down to see who made this comment before I said it. It was literally the first thing I thought... IT HAS POCKETS!!!
@@whiskey_phillips same. Pockets on dresses are underestimated
IncrediBelleJessi IT’S A HOLY GRAIL
Ya'll know when someone compliments your dress and your reaction is just, "It has POCKETS!"? I think that has to be my favorite reaction to a compliment (not "Oh it was on sale" or "It was a gift" or something)
WOW, this is a great look on her! She looks amazing!
