I wear vintage almost daily in some form . I have a large collection of cashmere sweaters, and in the winter, I live in them. My favorites are the embroidered cardigans, but I also have lots of vintage turtlenecks and crew neck pullovers. I also have one very old Norwegian blue and white, Nordic design that I wear when it is very cold here in the South. I get more compliments on that sweater!
I also love mod 60s jumpers and skirts. The a-line shape is easy to wear, and looks great with a pair of knee length boots. But no poly double knit; just wool for me.
My latest passion is 40s and early 50s jackets. I have several that I wear, and people can't believe that they are "old" clothes. My favorite this year has been a 50s blue and black tweed by Bardley, but I have a 40s blue gab that I've worn a lot too, and a Pendleton 49er.
For summer, I like the early 60s look. I love bateau necklines and the little crop tops for casual wear that look cute with modern capris (which hit me at the ankle cause I'm short).
The only vintage shoes I wear are 60s, but I love early 60s two tones, and also, shoes with a mod look. Not clunky though. I just found a wonderful pair of navy boots from the 60s that are part suede, part leather.
I could go on, but you get the picture!
