"When you've discovered your Vintage Style - embrace it but don't overdo it. You want to look vintage chic, not like you're taking part in a historical reenactment. This leads on nicely to my next point"
Always add something modern to your look. If your entire outfit and accessories are vintage, don't add a puddle hairstyle, instead, leave your hair in a ponytail. If your hair and clothes are vintage-inspired, opt for a pair of converse or ballerinas to tone down the look. Balance is key with vintage fashion.
Even a simple shift dress from Zara can look Vintage if you mix it up with the right accessories. Don't be afraid to dress up your 'modern' clothes with retro-chic handbags, shoes and of course, jewellery.
"Never forget to be yourself and embrace it. Vintage and retro fashion will always catch people's attention. If you don't feel good, it can quickly become intimidating. Vintage should be fun, playful and a creative way to express yourself. Embrace the attention that you'll receive and feel good about the skin and clothes you're in."
