Brittany kindly let me step up and write a guest post today, and I wanted to share my passion for 1950s fashion with you.

Each decade has it's own fabulous style but Fifties fashions are so fun and feminine which is why I adore them. I find that lots of people don't know how to start putting together an outfit which 'fits' with their vintage dress, so I wanted to share some of my ideas*

* It goes without saying that you can mix and match vintage in absolutely ANY way you like. Individuality is the key to enjoying yourself with what you wear, but today I wanted to concentrate on getting a genuine 50s look!

I picked 3 vintage 1950s dresses I currently have in store and dressed them up in different ways - one for a very smart evening look, one as a fun teen-inspired outfit and one which just sings to me of warm summer days (and makes me feel like I'm Grace Kelly driving a convertible through the south of France).

Don't forget to team your outfit with a fabulous retro hairstyle (you can find some great tutorials here) a flash of red lipstick and some winged eyeliner, then you'll be all set to go! Let me know what you think of the outfits, how would you wear these dresses?
