hello world! holy shatner, i haven't blogged. But here! This is a special blog post... requested by the amazing Emma Timordidio :) Cutest girl ever, grade 6, amazing blond hair, like alice in wonderland hair. very intelligent... and very thoughtful!
okay lets get on to it. 
HAPPY TUESDAY. or some call it "Valentines Day". Sorry, i don't do that style. i like HAPPY TUESDAY better.
Anyways, She specifically requested a vintage style. So, lets go vintage!... well i'm always vintage... so its not really surprising. So i actually went all out on this. Most of the stuff here are vintage. So dont ask me where i bought it!
Okay so let's start.


#1 Sweet Vintage Floral


so, this could be worn any season... but i absolutely suggest to wear this in the summer... it is better instead of having to wear tights and stuff. its a pain. so i highly recommend this for summer. I guess this is more of a formal-ish dance. But not so, i mean if you live in places that usually people dont care what you wear then go ahead! or if you just dont care then just wear it... formal or not. The flower... thats my favourite addition. Formal or not, you could still wear the flower... oh the beauty. You could also rock a fedora with this dress! Since its vintage, might as well add it to make it look even more vintage. + Accessory: Headband right? yeah, rock the headband. if you want to, you can totally do it because if you wear it, it'll sort of make you look like an angel... sort of. 
Get ready! If you want to walk into the dance with everyone staring at you, wear this, the perfect outfit to show off your beauty and angelic side.


*TIP: If your dance will get down and dirty and you worry about perspiration, then get a really really thin cardigan or vintage lace cardigan and wear it.. oh and deodorant. Maybe even take a break and spritz some body mist on to you!


#2 Sunny Vines and Metal


Hah! beautiful summer dress... literally. it's yellow and bright. it will turn heads! Like i said with the other dress... wear it in the summer... its highly recommended! The headband would give it a summery angelic look, its very original and unique. Like i said, its more of a formal outfit. But if you dont care, then go ahead! Also, it would look amazing if you were by the beach and its warm, then you must wear that. the metal head band would be cute if you had short hair, give you a little bob.

#3 Love Royalty


Want a little vintage love? Wear this one. This one will make you look cute, tights or not. This outfit can have alot of hats, even no hat it would look good. If you wore this in the spring, wearing the mittens will make you look like a little princess... if thats what you want. Also the beige vintage hat would go well with the mittens as well. This is for a more less formal, maybe just a normal school dance. A really cute outfit for a date as well.  Twirl a bit, show your cute side. That's what the skirt is for so put it to good use. 


#4 Abstract Lace


Oh the amazing. Love abstract or absolute weirdness mixed with vintage? Wear this. Perfect for standing out, or if you're not going with a date and you're just going with friends, wear this. Unless it's winter, then dont. The perfect Roxy sailors hat adds a little pixie like to it. Make sure to tuck in your shirt, it looks better, gives a more vintage look. Hey! even throw the Head Band to give a absolute abstract hippie. Combine it with the Feather Earring! Oh the Bonus. Oh gosh... the belt. How colourful. Yes, more colour, the better. Its called abstract! DUH. 


#5 Vintage Owl


The owl! How cute, you must say at least. This outfit makes you look a little more tomboy-ish depending on what hat, or what shoes to wear. In my opinion, i prefer this outfit for the dance. It's more laid-back, i think the jeans jacket makes it look, excuse my language, but bad-ass. It's a pretty sick combo. Also, if you sweat, i'm pretty sure the jeans jacket will keep the odour in. haha. Its an amazing outfit for just going crazy and dancing. Even the owl, it makes it cute as well... mixed with a little guy tone.


#6 Cali Ruffle


A little bit of cali style but plaid mixed. This gives a bit of a dark vintage side. The fedora completes the outfit because it gives a very indie look. This is more suited for if you're going with a date because it makes you look cute, and comfy and the same time. It would also show a bit of a naughty side... i guess. it'll make you look evil and mischievous in a way. Great for dancing, since its such a loose material, no matter how much you sweat, you wont smell it... BUT STILL WEAR DEODORANT. This, honestly, could be worn in any season, even the fedora, it really doesn't matter, it'll look really cool with the fedora and the trench mixed. 


#7 Malibu Beach Style


I guess i would recommend this... ONLY IF YOU'RE GOING TO A BEACH OR THE DANCE IS CLOSE TO THE BEACH. Haven't you seen like 90210? when they walk the beaches to relax, they wear mostly that. Well yeah, vintage. But only if the dance is not formal, then be my guest and wear something like that. I think that outfit sort of has a retro style to it. Lets talk accessories here. The feather earrings could be worn, it would honestly give the most vintagest look ever... if that's even a word. But also the Head Band! would give it a really hippie look. Combine the two and voilĂ ! you have a vintage hippie! the coolest one out there... i would have to say. But... there is some advantages to this... if you were to dance ... were a really thin sweater of some sort... you are wearing a spaghetti... dont frail your arms or POO WEE you can smell the stench. The shoes... if you're walking on the beach... barefoot or greek sandals would look just fine. If you're at the dance though, it is recommended to wear TOMS or Oxford Boots, to give some comfort. The wedges could be a more traditional dance.. if you catch what i mean. Oh, and one last touch, add the perfect DIY seashell long necklace... or any vintage necklace! make sure it stands out though.


#8 Rock & Roll Hope


The perfect one. My favourite. I actually wore this one today with the hat and everything... yes, people turned heads... but for the hat. Yes, the hat. the very old vintage "french" hat. How great! I find that this outfit is more for the rock and rollers and the single ladies. But the hat gives a bit of a girly touch.  Once you're in this outfit, you'll feel like you're part of Hell's Angels or something. Yes, the feather earring and the headband would do as well. the feather earring... preferably for long hair people, would give a vintage guy look. the head band would give a hippie! everyone loves the hippie look. Perfect for dancing, trotting or even frailing.
