After spending countless hours going around the malls trying to re-create the 50s “Mad Men” look thats one of the hottest trends of the season, I finally gave up. More structured, and “hardcore” looks seemed to be more common. However, I found a solution! Buying vintage items from Etsy means I can wear genuine clothing from the era, following a major F/W2010 trend, and mixing it up with modern pieces for a more modern approach. WIN! Check out some of the best items out there and channel your inner 50s Betty Draper:

(1. Vintage Rhinestone Crystal Black and Clear Pin Set,$65,bitzofglitz4u. 2.Navy Blue Ribbed Shell Gold Chain Vintage Mermaid Clutch Purse,$27,PrincessSamy. 3.Vintage Life Stride Formal Heels Lace Crocheted Dress Shoes ,$48,MillsDesignCo. 4.Vintage Pink Party Dress, $330,TimelessVixenVintage. All items available through Etsy.com )

How to get the look : A modern take on the 50s look would to pair up those items with contemporary items! Wear the earrings and brooch with your favorite white shirt, the clutch with a simple evening dress, the shoes with almost everything, and the flowery dress with an edgier black jacket and booties! LOVE this trend and how simply it feminises your wardrobe. Try it ;)
