3 Stylish Ways To Wear A Vintage Blouse



If you thought that vintage fashion was dated, then you have probably never experimented with the different ways of dressing a vintage blouse. When you wear a vintage look, you can decide just how authentic you would like to look, or if you would like to contrast it with something a bit more modern and eclectic. In fact, some of the funkiest looks are achieved by creating a contrast between old and new, and something that is interesting to look at.  If that has sparked your curiosity and you are looking for some different ways to dress your blouses up or down, here are three hot styling tips to help you out:

Vintage Blouse

1. Standard Vintage For A Look That Is Classy And Sophisticated

If you want to wear vintage to the office or to a formal event, then the standard classic look will probably work for you. This look is quite conservative and usually works best with sleek, high waist trousers or a slim fitting skirt. The law of contrasts also works effectively, as lighter colored shirts tend to complement darker bottoms. If you are going to a formal or evening event consider your fabrics and textures too. A sheer, silky shirt is often offset nicely with heavier or thicker fabric on the bottom.

2. The Refashioned Vintage Look, If You Want To Sit On The Fence

If you haven’t worn vintage before or you are worried about going out and looking like you’ve overdressed by a few decades, then this is a safe compromise. You can pick and choose vintage elements and combine pieces you are more comfortable with, without worrying that your outfit is too over the top. If you pick a vintage blouse and you don’t want to look too much like your grandmother, then team it up with a pair of skinny jeans or some cropped pants to soften the look.

3. The Curated Vintage Look When You’re Feeling Bold And Brave

If you want to go out and make sure you are noticed, then this is probably the look for you. In order to pull it off you will have to do your research and make sure you matching garments that will work, for maximum impact. This look isn’t for the faint of heart, but it’s certainly the kind of look for the person who knows what they want. It’s best worn with lots of attitude and confidence.
