So what to do if you really don't like belts on waist, the way they make you look?? I feel they make my waist look thicker, uhh... (Though I'm not that big actually.) And up to now I've never tucked in *anything* , for me tucked in shirts look quite... naff, somehow. I guess I'll have to learn to do that, but I'm really not a fan of how that looks on me, either.

@@florenna it’s all you do you and I’m sure you look good either way. A possible reason you run into issues may be that you are more rectangle or apple shaped. If you want the belt look, then perhaps using a long piece of cloth to tie around your waist would help. Otherwise, no worries. It’s all about what makes you comfortable and there are many other ways to incorporate vintage inspirations into your style.

You're the only person I've seen who mentioned that the cat eye is not historically accurate, THANK YOU, I love winged liner like nobody's biz, but I'm sick of people saying "it's not vintage without the cat eye." Like seriously, fool. Fight me.

even in the fifries, many women were lucky to own lipsrick and powder, let alone mascara or eyeliner. foundation was for actresses.

In the 50's we never heard of "pencil skirts" we called them "straight skirts" and they were awesome!! Called "tight skirts" too

Button-up cardigans! They look nice and vintage-y with a skirt! I'm also a fan of wearing a sleeveless dress over a collared shirt for a retro faux vest-suit type look. Blouses that tie into a neck bow are great to pair with pants or skirts. I have a black sash from an old dress that I used as a neck bow on regular button down blouses for a simple vintage look.

Yes! Cardigans are what I was thinking too! If you add a brooch cardigans can give an instant vintage look. Being very busty I have a hard time finding button up tops that work, or ones that are warm. But you can cover up a modern tee with a cardigan and it instantly gives vintage vibes. If you pair that with good hair and cute shoes you're set! Plus they are easy to find and cheap so you can have them in every color. And the embroidered ones you can find (I'm looking at you Collectif) are to die for!

I totally agree - vintage styled hair adds +50 vintage points. Which is why if you want to wear a REALLY vintage outfit but not feel too costumey you can tone it down by wearing your hair in a more neutral fashion. Wearing very basic makeup also does the same thing. I've been rocking the vintage style for about 5 years and discovered this all through laziness of course. :)

I think this and your "Faking Vintage" video both need to be first watching for every person looking to add more vintage to their life. And what helped me the most is knowing where to look and what shapes to look for. I'm plus size so here's my addendum for the size 14-26 set and such: - Know your shapes. Cuts from vintage times were different, so I have certain shapes of things I'm always on the lookout for. Skirts and dresses with an "A" line, cardigans that have a vintage sort of school feel, blouses that have the right sort of collar and sleeves and can be tucked into skirts. In the "Faking Vintage" video you did a great job showing how something might not have 100% vintage elements but those are easy to hide with a vest, put a skirt over it, or tuck or cut away. -When stores put stuff on clearance, that's the time to look. I got a Sailor dress from Torrid a few seasons ago for $13. I got a polka dot dress for $20, I got another dress for $28 that has skulls and glasses print on it(which is a bit more rockabilly but still looks so good and had the perfect shape, so I can't complain for $28. Target has Ava & Viv, which I've found some good stuff from there, and even Walmart had the best vintage style bathing suit a few years ago(polka dot with a tie neck, size 3x, $26). Old Navy occasionally has good styles, especially for shirt dresses with simple colors. You can also check ebay, although I would definitely check the reviews and stick to simple garments like a skirt, blouse, they do appear to have super cute dresses but I've yet to order one because Asian sizes mean I need to size way up. I have kind of a mix of modern and vintage styling and have been looking to incorporate more vintage gothy styling into my warddrobe the past few months after remembering how much I enjoy the look and feel of it.

I think one of the great things about 50's style and the "new look" silhouette is that it's great for us plus size girls! Circle skirts are amazing because it nips in your smallest spot and flows out over everything else! It's also great that almost every reproduction brand out there makes their clothes in plus sizes! I've found it easier to try and find plus size clothes that fit from reproduction brands than it is to find in mainstream stores! Almost everything from Collectif and Lindy Bop (which both have plus sizes) are made from stretchy material so it's more forgiving and easier to feel comfortable purchasing online.

The skirt and shirt combo is way forgiving for height and size too. Vintage dresses are pesky to size sometimes too.

Gurl where are you finding all these short sleeve button ups?! I love them so much but can't find them anywhere! 😭

If I wasn't working, I would definitely dress vintage. As it is, I work with small children/outside in all weathers, so dressing nice is definitely not a priority. (Have to wear things that are okay to get paint/glue/snot/dirt/mud/etc all over.) The skirt trick is a nice one--would you have some good sources for shirts? And I wouldn't mind playing around with doing vintage hair, but I haven't managed to locate a good tutorial/idea for styles that work on naturally curly hair. Most of the tutorials start with straight hair being curled then brushed out. I'm not about to straighten my hair just to curl it again, but if I were to brush out my curls they wouldn't do anything resembling a pin up brush out...

Have you tried wet setting?I have naturally wavy/curly hair (2C) so after I wash my hair and put in my leave in creams and what not(I can't imagine the process for kinky haired girls) I let it dry to the point where its still damp but mostly/almost dry and start pin curling(pins, sponge/pillow rollers which ever you prefer). When I wake up my pin curls have taken shape then brush out. It works! But timing is important because if your hair is too wet it won't dry leaving the pin curl out of shape but wait too long for it to dry and its impossible to roll the hair. If your hair is frizzy (like mine) pomade is essential to keep the styles looking good.

Hahaha I totally understand that, I used to groom dogs and there was NO WAY I was dressing cute 😂😂 And as for the hair, I definitely recommend using either the wet set method or setting lotion! I know it doesn't seem like it makes sense to curl your already curly hair, but using those methods will restructure the curls and make the brushout completely different 😊😊

Mary Hines French braids typically give me a more crimpy look. I'll have to try some finger brushing on a weekend where I have nowhere to go--just in case it doesn't work out, then I'll have time to wash hair again and wait for it to dry just enough to do a wet set per ironic toast's suggestion.

I try the '80s and '90s clothes, and in my mirror I see it as older vintage, but I feel like without the hair and makeup, everyone else just sees it as '80s/'90s still. lol

There's this woman who looks like she's just walked off a period film set, that I keep seeing at Euston Station in London. Sometimes she looks like Veronica Lake, sometimes Greta Garbo or Ingrid Bergmann. She's absolutely perfect to the last detail and the clothes are incredible. I don't know what she does or where she gets them but its like her wardrobe is joined to the BBC period drama wardrobe and I have been wanting to take a photo but I am sure she gets pestered all the time.

Aww thank you so much!! I'm glad it could be helpful!! ❤️

I found a beautiful circle skirt at m&s yesterday! Im in love

I love skirts💙💙💙 I went vintage this year and I love it. I even lucked on the prettiest Italian made oxfords💚 I also used to be so embarrassed to shop at a thrift, but I was suprised about how much more variety they have.

Hello miss pinup companion!!! This was the first video I watched of yours and since watched many more and will continue because I subscribed! So happy to have found you! I have always loved this style but nevet brave enough to wear it! Well.... I have recently gained the confidence to just do it! (No pun intended. Haha!) So i went out and bought a few must haves and been watching tutorials to get my vintage style on point! 😉 I must say that you my dear are a life saver! Not only are you an "experienced" on the vintage style (I love the 50's!!), you are very knowledgeable and informative and your hilarious! I enjoy watching your videos! Have been all morning once i watched your first! So keep on doing what you do because you are great at it! A natural! Here's a shout out to your lil fur babies! Love that you include them, but being a fur baby mama myself i understand that they would be there making noises whether you wanted them to or not! Hahaha! Anyway girl, you are beautiful! Keep on keeping on! Can't wait to watch the next video!!! So glad i found ya before winter slams Cincinnati! I watched your video on layering for the winter months! 😉 Thanks again!!!

Oh my goodness thank you sweetest!!! 😊

some old rules i grew up with, from an insistent Nana: matching hat and gloves and shoes and hand bag, otherwise, white gloves. she wore gloves into her nineties. wear a hat in the sun!! in Australia, that is still excellent advice, and has helped me to age well. girdles, bras, pantyhose, full cotton briefs, and full petticoat or half-slip. and a white cotton singlet under everything.. or else!; even under spencers. soooo much underwear! but no skirt or dresses without a peticoat or half slip , and pantyhose always with shoes, but not sandals. boots with trousers were for horse riding.... these were rules even through the nineties and beyond. it was a lot of work, and life was much more formal.

Ok, I'm officially in love with you and your sense of humor 💁

The perfect topic! I was just wondering how you handle 'workaday' vintage, or more comfy vintage options. Loved it!

Absolutely agree about the hair! My dress for my sister's wedding was more modern and did some pin curls on top and poof! Everyone kept commenting on how my ensemble looked like it was from a long ago era. P.S. It isn't a proper Sunday night until you upload!

Jessica Brissette Hahaha yes exactly!! It's kinda fascinating 😂❤️

I love watching your videos. I've always been attracted to the 1950's pinup style. Your videos are inspiring to me to thrift for 1950's styled stuff.. :)

Your hair is STUNNING here, omg. And Navy is definitely a friendly color for you! Thank you for sharing the knowledge! I work for the DoD, and I have to be "conservative," but I still want to be ME, you know?
