So lots of you ask me, "Jessica, are you vintage

Another question I get asked a lot however is,

"How do I use modern items and make them look more vintage?"

if you're starting out in vintage clothing

and you maybe don't want to spend too much money

can be really expensive guys, really expensive.

to use the most modern article of clothing

I am using one of my merch T-shirts, ta-da!

So you're going to see them in a variety of ways

throughout this video in a variety of different outfits

and I hope it will be really helpful for you

and give you some little hints and tips and tricks

your vintage wardrobe and your vintage life.

Now let's watch as I attempt to make a T-shirt vintage.

We're starting with a standard white T-shirt

and I always think it's incredibly flattering

I'd really advise getting some staples in your wardrobe

that look quite vintagy and thus can make other things

look vintage, but also work for everyday wear

if you don't put a petticoat underneath them.

Honestly, I could wear pinback with this skirt

But I don't think I've done too bad a job with the T-shirt.

You might have noticed the little teal accent on the T-shirt

which really just means they are comfortable enough

If you've ever wondered how I do up my shoes,

To match my shoes I am adding a bag of the exact same color.

Lots of fashion magazines will say that oh,

you shouldn't match your shoes to your bag

because only grandmas do that, to which I say duh!

My entire aesthetic is what would grandmother wear.

And to top off this rather basic vintage look,

add some pearls because you can never go wrong with pearls.

Another vintage staple, this dress is the Matilda,

it is a really great investment piece and very wearable.

But this outfit really starts with a very attractive

and incredibly soft oversized T-shirt that I happen to sell.

One is the most modern identifiers of T-shirts

but personally I'm a fan of the Snow White puff.

to add cute sleeve details without any sewing.

I have a lot of them thanks to most vintage companies

To make a sleeve puff you merely take the pin

in the center of the sleeve edge on the front side,

and then finally a section from the center near the seam.

You can repeat this on the back of the sleeves too

As you can see the collar from the Matilida dress
