Dressing the Vintage Part. Vintage Clothing and Accessories.

Thanks to shows like Mad Men, and the re-make of The Great Gatsby, the vintage clothing craze has gone wild.  It's not enough to groom our homes vintage style, we too must look the part.  You must admit, they had some great style!  The cuts, the curves, the colors - just gorgeous.  Women were feminine, sexy, sophisticated.  Men were handsome, polished, dapper.  Picture Don Draper or Robert Redford as Gatsby....need I say more?

It used to be a pain to find quality vintage clothing.  Today, it's at our fingertips - just do a quick internet search and you'll find store after store dedicated to the 50's, 60's and other eras.  Many even offer new reproductions if you want the look but not the dust.

One of my favorites for new vintage clothing is Shabby Apple.  
Vintage clothing can be worn on it's own or mixed with modern.   It's so versatile and fun!  

Check out some of my favorite looks below...

Channeling Betty Draper.....

For the hipster wedding, like Keira Knightly just had!

So precious. I could live in this sweet little dress. 

Simple, minimal, subtleties that make a huge impact.  How sweet are these dresses?

Get your vintage swim on!
