How to Add Vintage Charm to your Outfit
With spring upon us there are so many occasions that require dressing more glamorously (weddings, graduations, social dinners, etc). It is easy to just put on a simple nice dress, a pair of heels and a pretty necklace. When you want something a little different yet at the same time alluring, think vintage! Vintage jewelry (jewelry that is at least 20 years old) often has recurring themes that are still popular today. When I started looking for vintage jewelry pieces, I came across Sweet & Spark, and I am so happy that I did! Sweet and Spark has curated a collection of quality vintage pieces that stand the test of time. I purchased my one of a kind, lovely pearl floral statement brooch that I am wearing here from Sweet & Spark, but they have so many other vintage pieces from which to choose.
My clutch, while not vintage in itself, still has a vintage element of charm that goes perfectly with my brooch. This stylish little bag is under $100 and is a great way to add glam to any outfit. This bag can either be carried as a clutch, and can also be worn on the shoulder with the drop-in chain strap it comes with.
Bloomingdales Aqua One Shoulder Ruffle Dress
I’ve had this Aqua one shoulder ruffle dress sitting in my closet for a couple of months now, but only recently has the weather been appropriate enough to wear it. I love the bright fascia color, and the fabric is stretch and form-fitting. The dress is a great one to have in my closet, my only complaint is that this dress is a bit too form fitting, as I feel like every bump and curve on my body shows up on this dress. I am wearing an XS here and it fits fairly well. This is a great dress for a wedding or a fun date night, and it is on sale right now too for $66. If fuchsia is not your style, this dress also comes in an elegant black color.
Thanks for looking!

I love adding a vintage brooch to a blazer or dress! I was lucky enough to have one stylish grandmother who graciously left me her collection – they’re a great way to start a fashion conversation too!
