Vintage vixen

So often I’m inspired by vintage looks. I don’t know what it is about the clothes of yesteryear that are so appealing. I believe classic cuts and pieces really never go out of style.

Today’s look is vintage inspired.

I like this A-line dress because I feel it has a flattering cut along with an added bonus of feminine charm. I purchased it last spring at Target on clearance ($14.99.) I paired it with my brown cardigan and brown and gold buckle peep toe pumps (Cato, clearance, $2.99.) I accessorized with my Jewels by Park Lane jewelry. (I have quite a few pieces because I held a home party last fall.)

The Mad Men style may be in, but I didn’t want to look as if  I was wearing a Halloween costume. I’m not wearing my hair high like they do (no beehives) and I’ve added a cardigan to cover the sleeveless style for the office.

For dresses similar in style to this television era hit visit Modcloth.

I call this my vintage vixen attire. At the end of the day if I want to change my appearance all I have to do is remove my cardigan.

So do you like vintage looks? What era do you prefer? Or do wear whatever feels good and flatters you?
