Using Retro Fashion Items To Create Your Look
Being a slave to fashion and reproducing looks that you see in the magazines is easy, but you end up looking like just about every other woman out there. In order to create your own unique twist on the current styles, you should consider going vintage and buying clothing items and accessories from charity and vintage shops.
There are retro fashion stores and charity shops where you can often find interesting and quality second hand pieces that can be used to liven up an outfit. Sometimes you even find high fashion pieces from leading fashion houses nestled in among other pieces for an absolute bargain price.
Antique jewelry is often very unusual and interesting when combined with more up to date clothing. Every girl should have a beautiful crystal necklace in her jewelry box that can be used to add a little style to any outfit. These necklaces were huge in the thirties and forties and you can channel that era with one of these.
Beautiful scarves from glamorous fashion houses can often be found at bargain prices in vintage shops and every woman should have a collection of scarves. These can be easily used with girls shirts or dressed up with office wear or fitted sweaters in winter: they are a very versatile fashion item. Evening purses and handbags can also often be found at vintage shops and add an interesting touch of style.
You can often find antique engagement rings at antique jewelry stores and these often make a beautiful addition to your jewelry box either as an engagement ring or for fashion use. Antique jewelry is often a good choice as it tends to be very good quality, if you know what you are looking for, and you can find unusual designs.
Part of the fun of buying vintage is finding new things and bargains as you never know what it going to turn up in the stores. Another part of the fun is to change the pieces in different ways such as dying them, altering them and accessorizing them.
By mixing up new items from your wardrobe with vintage pieces it is easy to create an interesting and individual style for yourself. With some seasonal pieces blended with the older pieces of clothing and accessories, you will look at once up to date and classic at the same time.
A Christmas train, SNOW and ICE (orlandosentinel)
I absolutely LOVE the holiday season. Even if I didn't have a child, I'd still
attend these events, I cannot lie! Last year I blogged about how disappointed
I was that the "Polar Express" train ride in Eustis was canceled. My family
and I had so much fun the previous year. Well, this year there's another
