The LBD Made Vintage

By Liz Bey.

 

Every woman knows that a fashion staple for their closet is the little black dress a.k.a. LBD. That perfect black dress that hugs your hips, shows off your figure and makes you feel AMAZING. And with this LBD you can dress it up, down, casual, fancy or even professional. Well – why not make it go vintage as well?

And since I have the wonderful closet of clothes over at ChloeChic.com for my personal blogging use – I found the cutest vintage inspired cardigan to vintage-ify my LBD!

The Dainty Lady Cardigan is a perfect accessory to an LBD because it will give you the coverage without sacrificing style. The one button closure will keep the cardigan closed but still show off that sexy little number you have on underneath. Pair the outfit with a matching teal pump and you have yourself a night on the town outfit.

Vintage Prom

By Liz Bey.

 

In high school prom is a strategic part of the process; when you are a senior especially prom marks that the year is almost over. Prom is also one of the biggest fashion events of the season – so why not add a little vintage this year?

Vintage inspired gowns have been hot this season on the red carpets and finding one that fits for prom is so much fun. When I saw this particularly ruffled and beaded piece it screamed 19th Century ball. Balls could be local ones in the town hall or private balls held by the upper class – both were events where every lady pulled out their best gowns and accessories.

 

Accessories were always picked carefully and simplicity was key – you wanted to wear the jewelry, not let the jewelry wear you. So I found this amazing vintage inspired necklace from ChloeChic that I thought did just that.

The Stargazer Necklace is simple yet elegant and will accent your lovely neck when paired with a strapless gown. And the neck was a very sensual place back then … Best part is, the Stargazer Necklace comes in four colors!

 

Hope I’ve inspired your to wear some vintage this prom season!
