When you are first starting out in the wonderful world of vintage it can be very, very overwhelming. You may worry what decade to try first, where to shop, and basically how to pull off a look. When I first started I was very overwhelmed. To top it off I didn't have a lot of time, money, or resources. I did however discover more and more vintage blogs. Because of these bloggers I learned a great deal about creating a vintage style, how to shop, what to look for, and so much more.
Here on this post you will every single post I could find that vintage bloggers have written on the topic of dressing vintage. I do still recommend you keep on researching because the more you read about it, the more you will learn, and the more you can apply to your own unique vintage look.
I also included articles written about vintage and vintage wardrobes. I hope you find this list useful and I also have a Fashion & Beauty category on my blog if you want to take a peak on some of my tips as well.
