What is vintage?

Yaaaay! Finally I've passed the hardest week in this semester. Just too happy and excited to face the days ahead. We'll have Friendship Day (that usually called as class meeting) in 2 days. Outdoor for the first day and indoor for the second day, and the dress code for the second day is vintage. Wow can't believe it. My favorite style ever. But.. What is vintage anyway?

vin·tage [vin-tij]
(n) the class of a dated object with reference to era of production or use.
(adj) old-fashioned or obsolete.

So in a simple meaning, vintage is the era of old-fashioned things/objects, and usually represented by brown/soft colors to make it looks obsolete.

Here's the vintage stuffs :
- Vintage Hats
Such as : boater hat, wide hat.


- Vintage Dresses
Such as : simple, florals, laces, collar.

Wear them with vintage belt to shape your body
- Vintage Blouse/ Top


- Vintage Scarves

- Vintage Skirts
Such as : simple, florals, pleated.


- Vintage Accessories
Such as : pearls, ribbons, bronze accessories.


- Vintage Glasses


- Vintage Bag
Such as : Mulberry Alexa look-alike, postman bag.

- Vintage shoes
Such as: oxford shoes, strappy heels.

Wear them with socks/ tights

And they're into it..
- Alexa Chung (fashion icon)


- Chloƫ Sevigny


-Audrey Hepburn & Coco Chanel
'A girl should be two things: classy and fabulous.' - Coco Chanel
Both Audrey Hepburn & Coco Chanel have the same style. Their vintage style is always classic. Such as classic black dress, heels, and pearls accessories.
