I once saw a lady across the street and it is the most amazing experience I've ever had with fashion which is ridiculous because I only saw her from a distance and I didn't even get a good look at her. She was wearing a dark green, poofy (like she was wearing petticoats), Victorian-looking dress with a knee-length, dark green leather trenchcoat. Her hair was in a bun and she has a small-ish little vintage hat thing (the type you use as a fashion piece, not to cover the sun) and she had on old-looking heeled shoes with a buckle. Best of all, she walked with a cane. I'm not sure what it was but she had such grace, she floated instead of walked and her posture was incredible. I only saw her for a few seconds and it was several years ago now but I've never forgotten her.

I was at the Koroneberg Fair the other day (my second fair in something approaching appropriate faire costume) and I swore for a moment that I had walked by Bernadette Banner in a red ensemble with yellow hat and girdle). I must say, the best thing about allowing myself to develop a personal style may be that I end up spending much more time around people with personal styles of their own. Seeing other people just... openly enjoy themselves... it's an absolutely fantastic experience.

One old lady said I remind her of herself in highschool and things like that make me really happy and I forget all about any weird looks people give me. I hope I never change my mind about the way I dress, I feel great and look great and I'm not afraid of what people think, or if I "look like their grandma".

Age of Aquarius I think you're mistaking self deprecation with being honest. I don't like those looks and I find them funny, why should I pretend it's otherwise? Just so the viewers feel better? Polish people are, above all, an incredibly honest nation. When we say "how are you", we're actually curious to know. We don't say we're ok if we're not. We don't smile seeing someone we don't like. We don't pretend we're not tired or pissed when we are. Sure, it can be annoying, as you probably know, especially in day-to-day situations, but overall it's very refreshing and liberating, and something I miss here in the UK

I don't know where your insecurities come from. You were a cute little girl and you became a beautiful woman. It's difficult to be stylish without money. Also some of the mainstream fashion were practical but awful.

I thought your video was both honest and instructive. I find as a guy, especially as one in North America, there isn't as much of a discussion or community around the 'vintage' style. Most the time if I 'try' or go half and half, I am called a hipster or something else derivative of that term by others. I could only imagine adding sexism to the mix of responses. It takes courage to step out of the norm. I have much respect for what you do! :)

I got into vintage style during late high school, once I had lost off my baby fat. I guess I really felt alienated from my peers and the "good old days" appealed to me, also because of my interest in history. I usually pin curled my hair but wore only vaguely vintage inspired clothes. After high school, my mental health degraded so I lost the energy to look vintage, though I kept the interest. Now that I'm done with university, I'm thinking about going back. Thanks for this video! It was fun! Nice nudes btw👌👌👌

At 16 I only wore whatever I found in my floor and at 17 I started finally finding my own style. Now I'm turning 19 and I wear whatever I want, mostly retro.

Thank you for clarifying that it can take a long time to transform one's style and wardrobe to vintage because I'm in the same boat where I cannot afford vintage or vintage style clothes, and I am also insecure about changing my style suddenly. Also, I cannot just throw away all the clothes I have as that's wasteful, so its a very gradual slow change. You've actually given a perfect explanation of how I feel and where I'm at with my style at the moment. Also where I live, we do not have many thrift shops or any I know of at all, and it makes things difficult.

I live in Hawaii. The pressure to conform is pretty intense, I've actually had department heads tell me exactly what to wear to set, and instruct me to not wear something specific that I like because they claim I'll be too hot (like I'm just a silly lil woman who can't gauge her own body temperature) I ended up just converting my clothes to all black because I was so pissed off with the pressure of everyone trying to control me. I mean. I've even been sent home because my nail polish wasn't the color of natural skin pigment. Anyway, I eventually started wearing whatever I want and when they would send me home, I'd happily spend the time in my studio, leveling up my skill. Consequentially, I became so good at what I do that production won't send me home anymore, they just scold me instead. But I let them talk and just do what I want anyway because there's something far more powerful in embodying a "f**k you!" rather than saying it :)

I started wearing vintage my freshman year of high school. I was experimenting a whole ton and because I was starting in fashion, I looked ridiculous, so obviously a lot of people laughed at me. I ended up changing my style to more grunge chic (I guess?) for my sophomore year of high school (to try and fit in with the crowd) as well as the beginning of my junior year, but as my school career continued, I discovered the vintage again and decided to get back into it. I had a much better sense of style at that point, so I was able to study the look of vintage a whole lot more and now, people compliment me at school all the time. So it took a lot of trial and error, but I am a lot happier with it now.

I'm on my third year doing vintage. It was always something I've wanted to do, but yeah I never thought I would be able to. Some life changing events happened and I just decided I was going to do what I wanted. I m far from fully there, still figuring out my personal vintage style, and clothes are expensive, especially for a college student. I've got a couple of reproductions in clothes and makeup, altered some thrift finds, and was lucky enough to find this cute hat from the 40s and a vintage pair of gloves that were hardly worn. Since I live in a small town I can't get away from the comments, but thankfully I have a few people who actually enjoy what I wear. One being a teacher, actually on campus I have several who wait to see what I'm wearing that day.

Lovely honest video. I totally understand the struggle of long historical hair or shorter vintage hair, I recently cut my hair short and I don't know what I'll do when it comes to historical stuff now. I have always loved clothes with a story, so that started as princess dresses, then when I was 5 I fell in love with Audrey Hepburn so I had black velvet dress which made me feel like I was her in Breakfast at Tiffany's, in my early teens then I liked gothic victorian inspired style so I used to wear edwardian blouses with long skirts and a top hat though because I was reading lots of victorian literature. I eventually started historical sewing and at the same time I started wearing more colour again and vintage clothes.

It was so fun to see your fashion journey! Thanks for sharing! I have been wearing vintage since I was 15/16 years old, and I totally understand what you mean about getting a lot of attention.

I really love this and your take on vintage! Your attention to historical accuracy and detail is fantastic. I've not done terribly much with vintage yet, but I've found a lot of vintage jewelry that I enjoy pairing with modern/somewhat retro pieces of clothing. The connection to history is probably may favorite part of the vintage movement. You look incredible, and I look forward to exploring more of your videos

Świetny kanał, bardzo przyjemnie się Ciebie ogląda. Zawsze czekam na nowe filmy :) Powodzenia w dalszej pracy. :D

I saw the "nudes" in the description, and I felt like you wouldn't actually link those so I clicked out of curiosity as to what you would put. XD So scandalous! Love it

It was fun to see you younger. Thanks for sharing ! You were incredibly beautiful in all these pictures. But I understand you were uncomfortable until you find your style. Whatever, I like your inspiring videos.

A video about your best or most interesting second hand finds would be fun to watch~ :)

Agreed

"If I buy some basic elegant stuff and I just keep wearing it throughout my life I will be classy old lady" this is me at the moment and I realised I just look like I'm wearing plain D&G leftovers

You deserve so much more views! You are funny, articulate and your content is always really informative (especially for people like me who are interested in a vintage lifestyle but have no clue how to go about getting into it). Also, you are definitely too harsh on yourself, your style evolution isn't nearly as 'bad' as you make it out to be, it's actually really cute and pretty.

I love how you have your own unique style and you don't care what anyone thinks and that's something I highly admire. Keep doin you girl!

The middle/high school story is so relatable haha After seeing this video I think I'm accidentally transitioning towards wearing vintage. Love your style!

Oh, why can I only like this video once?? Your style is amazing and very encouraging. I'm on that stage where I'm trying to stick to what we could call the classic stuff. I've always liked a little bit of this and that but of course (as anyone who's only 21 years old) I've never managed to create a consistent look. I'm getting rid of loads of shit (I had clothes from when I was 12 years old) and trying to get a gender neutral classic look. The problem is I feel way too akward wearing shirts, black pants and loafers instead of jeans, t-shirts and sandals unless it's a somehow formal occasion. Even though I moved a couple years ago from my hometown to the huge capital (I'm living in Buenos Aires now) where people is more used to seeing different looks and styles. Summer and the warm temperatures of spring make it more difficult to achieve my desired look. Things would be different I guess if I lived somewhere with a colder weather 'cause I feel the look I want to get is easier during the winter. I am more into a kind of dandy look (if that's something) and very very slowly getting nearer. I feel conditioned very often whenever I have the opportunity to dress up a little bit by the different look the people around me is going to have. I find myself all the time asking my partner how dressy is he going to be because I just don't want to be looked at as a weirdo. I'm glad you shared your experience. It's great to see other people's paths even if they don't have the exact same style you're looking for. I've always felt some kind of admiration to the beauty you show and it's nice to see where the stunning person you see has started.

I've recently discovered your channel and I'm enchanted. You have a dry sense of humour and I think it goes over a lot of people's heads. All this talk of you "roasting" yourself instead of talking about your style evolution is a clear sign that (as my counselling lecturer used to say) "some people aren't meant to get it". The roasting seems to me to be a clever strategy to add interest and deliver an entertaining video and ya nailed it. I also tend not to be interested in watching videos over 10 minutes because people RAMBLE but yours are all so great and I sit through every second, hanging on ever dry word. Never change!

I loved the sleeveless dress picture. You are and always have been lovely. It was great seeing how you developed your style.

I love this video! I think you're super funny. "Don't be bothered by the Nazi on the left.." cracked me up for some reason 😂

I wore a 1960s vintage dress with beehive style hair a few days ago and so many people stared but I was with my mom so I was ok 😎

I love to rewatch this video: Karolina looks astonishingly beautiful here, the music and lightning make it feel so cozy. And it also inspires me a lot, helps to clear my head and to decide, what I really want my style to be like, without caring about the latest trends.

Karolina, seriously I was thinking about you these couple of days, you and the youtuber Tim Dessaint made me appreciate people with authentic taste in fashion, I personally was always kinda nostalgic and vintage person and I adore people who are so. Thank you for being in our universe♡

in the pic from when you were 14 you look like a default sim XD. no shade youre super pretty its just the expression

So my window was open and the wind made it move and squeak a bit and that's exactly when you said 'my window is making weird noises'!! New sub here, I like your style!

not that anyone will read or care but i've always wanted to get into vintage and historical. i'm constantly battling between my everyday style, my 70s style and just wanting to wear historical dresses and corsets. i just found this channel and i admire you for doing whatever you want, you know so much about historical fashion and i love it. you always look very beautiful in your historical garb. honestly i was kind of embarrassed that i liked old timey fashion, but i've been watching your videos all day and they have helped me branch out and find this community. turns out my friend is the same way with fashion and we've talked about going to balls and ren faires! also bought my first corset today, so excited! tldr: love ur videos, they've helped me find a vintage community

I am from HK and now in my year two of my university study. I hv been caring so much about how people dress and also myself, even now, and will get worried if I look strange that day. So I can somehow relate to your feeling back then. Before getting to vintage dressing, I was in a stage of wanting to dress with that, but daring not do it. And not until I met my girlfriend who dare dress in very colour-catchy way and loves to say “this is me. So what i am dressing represent me. Nothing to be ashamed of”, i had not dared to try on a vintage clothes. So now sometimes I still think I am not doing good enough in dressing in vintage style, but I will seriously look for the reason that make me look not good enough. In short, i think confidence+ acceptance to yourself who sometime fail in matching outfits+ serious examination on what’s wrong with the outfit= a strong mind that makes you on the track of exploring more possiblities in fashion while making yourself able to dress what you want or more

@ 9:38 Me, 3 years after this video was posted: Aw, Karolina looks so pretty- Karolina: OH NO, IT'S SO BAD

I don't get why this comment section was so sensitive when Karolina posted this video, y'all make it seem like she completely hated herself and I was waiting to be shocked but all I got was some funny reactions to cringey old pictures. Everybody's concept of cringe is different, she may have looked cute in her teenage years to most of you but she didn't like her style back then and has the right to it. I roast my teenage years worse than that so I was expecting this level or higher of self depreciation lmao. It's a funny video tho, makes me reminisce of when I was trying to find myself in a style that felt natural to me, we all go through experimental phases when teenagers.

Thanks for this video! It was perfect. I loved every minute of it and all your insightful comments and stories. I started wearing a few vintage outfits per week because of period movies and old books I love. The time periods are so fascinating and nostalgic to me, and their value for putting care into dress, making clothes that last, as well as just general aesthetics, really appeal to me.

You are hilarious! I love your videos. ❤️I enjoy the evolution of your style and that you just do what you like. It’s refreshing. Although you really shouldn’t be hard on your younger self. Everything you did brought you to this point. It’s a great timeline. XO

10:00 / 10:45 I actually really love this outfit! To me, you look like a really powerful woman from the late 1960s/ early 1970s!! It’s a beautiful look! Also you are so gorgeous at 11:35, a fashionable 70s movie star on her day off💕

I think it was the best you got so pissed at your prom ball and gown and decided to truly enter a fashion college haha See, vintage 100% suits you (also this lipstick is A+)!

Don't be so hard on yourself, girl! All of these pictures were so cute! Looks to me you've always been a beautiful, unique person 💞

omg this Style with glasses is soo pretty on you!! and I really love the Type of KZread Videos it has so much charisma in it!!

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? I LOVE THE OUTFITS YOU WERE SLAYING

you are too cute!

I really enjoy your channel and you as a personality. Thank you very much for your effort to make these videos and to make yourself transparent to the world! Very inspiring!

This is so cool to see your transition. Looking at the clothes I've worn and as I'd like to start wearing more historical styles, it's interesting to see what I was already doing in my teen years... Thanks for sharing this.

I know this was posted in February of 2017, but....it took you 1 hour and -fifteen-twenty minutes to make this video; judging by the clock in the background. Now can I have my cookie, please?

Portret w sukience wygląda całkiem uroczo, wcale nie masz takich strasznych rąk :D Ja mam brzydkie ramiona i już to trochę zaakceptowałam. Świetny film. I pięknie Ci w takiej fryzurze :)

I really like your hands.💕 Also, thank you for all the awesome content! I’ve seen so many of your videos, and I always learn something useful!🌸

You are such an inspiration to me. My husband, whose world revolves around re-enactments, wishes I was more of a vintage girl. You inspire me to actually give it a try.

Super kanał, zrób od czasu do czasu jakiś lookbook, bardzo jestem ciekawa jak wyglądasz na co dzień! :)

9:40: I actually really like that dress on you :) it's quite flattering in combination with that smile :3

When I was growing up, within circles of Polish youth of the late 90s and early 2000s it was seen as a trait of a "poorer" (financially) person to wear vintage because of the incredible (and still persisting) focus on the west and "American fashion", which didn't embrace "vintage" and "retro" styles until the mid-2015s really. So because of that, people usually dressed in styles evocative of Hollister/AE catalogues and very rarely something more so like Urban Outfitters today. I liked a lot of older styles that were hand-me-downs from older siblings and older relatives, and I remember guys picking on me saying I got my clothes from the "PCK" (Polish Red-Cross; organization which helps the less fortunate). I'm glad that now kids and youth probably don't have that problem anymore, but people in Poland are generally quite judgemental so I can understand how your transformation really did take years---because for others in other places (i.e. Berlin, London, NYC) it would probably be much faster of a transition, only because of the acceptance of "different styles" and plethora of great resources for experimentation (second-hand shops, specialty boutiques, etc)

Your New Year's Eve outfit is gorgeous. Say whatever you want, I love it.

Your style is great! Love the videos

I'm happy so many people pointed it out, but you looked completely normal & pretty in your old photos. The everyday outfit with sweaters and jeans? That's... the basis of most college students wardrobe, me included. The dresses? They were super flattering, imho! Your taste clearly changed and evolved which is valid, but honestly, the amount of self-criticism made me kind of sad!

I love how you talked about your fascination with fashion and your transitions. It made me feel nice about myself too. Thank you.

Really interesting because it’s similar to my own fashion journey. I have been feeling self conscious because I enjoy some vintage clothing but other days I like to wear a t-shirt and jeans. Hearing about your transition stages really makes me feel better about it. I also have a lot of pieces from times I was into button ups and black jeans. I like to mix the button ups with swing skirts, and it creates a style that really feels me. Hearing your story is very encouraging!

Is weird men are attracted to vintage style where you live, 'cause where I live it repels them 😂

Yeah you think being more covered would scare them away.

Classic, more exposure is boring, leaving less to the imagination. More covered is more exciting, imagination is everything.

I have to say that I agree with you about what people say about you wearing vintage definitely can be uncomfortable but I think the pros of wearing vintage definitely outweigh the cons

I do appreciate this video of yours because it’s a very genuine sharing and I also see you have been putting lots of time on historical fashion research in other videos of yours😌 keep going 💫💫🧡

You're learning to be fearless in improvising your look and that takes time. Ultimately you want to please yourself and I greatly admire that. I'm not a vintage dresser (yet) but could see myself doing it somewhat even though I'm older than you.

Could you do a video with different outfits ideas to go for example to the supermarket or something really casual?, sorry for my english

please do a tutorial on your hair style! it's absolutely gorgeous!

Heya Karolina, thank you for sharing your vintage story - it really resonated with me. I've always had quite an eclectic style and started collecting vintage pieces from charity shops/second-hand stores since I was 14. I really related to what you were saying about how vintage clothing attracts a lot of attention and, unfortunately, not all of it is welcome. These days, I struggle to "dress down" (when it comes to style, I'm a more is more kinda gal) and I do get funny looks from colleagues, classmates, and strangers. Like you, I hate drawing attention to myself, but I also have this passion for vibrant prints and vintage wear that does exactly that. I find this particularly challenging because of some of the responses it triggers in people around you, especially when it makes others feel "underdressed". I hope that others in the world will realise that it isn't necessarily vast amounts of confidence, vanity, or attention-seeking that inspires us to wear vintage garments but instead, it is a love for beauty and creativity centred around an appreciation for by-gone times. P.S. I love Edinburgh! I'm at a university that's about an hour away and whenever I'm in Edi I always try to squeeze in a trip to Armstrong's vintage on Grassmarket - they have such a great collection! Love you and your channel - hope you are safe and well

I LOVE your videos!!! I don't know why you think this one is boring. It was fun to get to know you a little better.

That lipstick is so flattering on you 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
