Although creating a vintage look is fun, it can be expensive. I got some tips to create a Mad Men worthy look without breaking the bank.
For me, vintage style is about putting together pieces to create the look. Here are the items that I use to create a vintage vibe.

Tip One
Let’s start with the least expensive items. Think a beret, belt, or purse. These items, when styled a certain way, can change up an outfit.
I have about six berets in different colors. It is a fun little piece that can add some color too! Next, belts to cinch at the waist are another item for a vintage vibe. Additionally, a fun purse can add a retro feel too.
Where do you find these? I get most of my retro style dresses from Amazon. You can visit my Amazon Shop here. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.
I get my berets from there, Target, and H & M. My belts are primarily from Target. TJ Maxx and Target are good for snagging some purses.

Tip Two
There are a few pieces that I like to wear when I want some vintage vibes. My go-to items are an a-line skirt and a petticoat
I have two petticoats. A white one and a black one. I wear them under my a-line skirts for extra volume.

Finally, just get dresses that you can style in a vintage way. These dresses don’t need to scream it. We don’t want that as there is a fine line between having style and wearing a costume. Instead, go with a style that allows you to add pieces.
I find that feminine dresses work best. They can be soft and flowy or they can be a structured sheath. The fit, as always, matters. What also matters is the print. Small prints with cherries, florals, or polka dots usually work. I like to add a bold red lip as well.
We want to keep this budget friendly. So, my go-to spots are Amazon, Target, Asos, and H&M. One other place to check out is a thrift store. I’ve found some gems there too! I have a post on thrifting here and here.
What I love about vintage and retro styles is that they can be “inspired” by an era. So, that means whatever you want it to mean. You can add a hint or go all in. Whatever it is, have fun! You never know what outfit you will create and love!
