Vintage Clothing & Accessories Must Haves

1. Headscarves
The perfect way to jazz up any outfit and add a vintage twist! You can purchase scarves with and without wire depending on your tie technique! They come in every colour so are ideal to match with anything in your wardrobe!

2. Brogues
I  adore these shoes as they look fabulous with dresses, shorts and skirts. You can buy them from most high street shoe retailers if you can't afford real ones- Primark do a very extensive range!

3. Red lipstick
Not technically an item of clothing but a bright shade of red or maroon is a must have for any girl! Every make up manufacturer has their own shade of red so go and get yours!
 
4. Vintage bag/satchel
I am head of over heels in love with vintage bags and satchels! They complete an out fit and allow you to carry a bit of the vintage era wherever you go!

5. Ray Ban sunglasses
Not key for this month's weather but are a DEFINITE for the summer! These Ray Ban ones are gorgeous but loads of replicas can be found for half the price.

6. Fur coat
Perfect for this time of year to keep you as snug as a bug in a rug! It's a toss up between tan and brown for me, or is leopard more your style?

7. Vintage inspired blouse
I love my vintage blouses paired with a cute skirt or pair of tweed shorts- make sure you have a selection in your wardrobe!

8. Vintage style dress
Skater dresses are a must have for me with simple lace detailing in vintage pastel colours! Have a look for an Autumn number for your Christmas parties!

9. Varsity jacket
When I got to wear a range of styles for the Vintage Child shoot I was in love! I am yet to buy one but I shall update you all when I find the one I'm looking for! Again these jackets go so well with a range of outfits and certainly highlight a retro theme!

10. Vintage inspired jewellery
This bike necklace is so cute and will really finish off any outfit! The dusted gold is so popular right now so make sure your jewellery box is bursting with rings, necklaces and charm bracelets!

Let me know what awesome clothes and accessories you find! I will also be doing 'Vintage Home ware Must Haves' so your bedroom and kitchen can look at retro as you!

Please please please do leave a comment as I love hearing from people who actually take the time to read my ramblings!
