Top 5 Clothing items for Rockabilly/Pinup/Vintage ladies!

This blog post is the top 5 clothing items I personally think every rockabilly/pinup/vintage lady should own in their wardrobes!

Starting off with
No.  1   Swing/circle dress

Swing/circle dresses is an essential for any vintage inspired wardrobe, whether it's a reproduction or a true vintage dress. Owing one or more of these beautiful dresses, gives you a true feeling your wearing a piece from the 1950's.
You can find these style of dresses from ebay, etsy, or any rockabilly/pinup/vintage type clothing stores.

They range from $30 upwards, depending on the reproduction brand or if the dress is a true vintage piece.

This is one of my swing dresses I own, it's from the brand Vivien of Holloway.

 

 No.  2  Wiggle/pencil dress

Wiggle/pencil style dresses is another must for a vintage inspired wardrobe and also for ladies who love to show off they're womanly curves! These type of dresses though are not for everyone, as they do show of your body shape more so then swing dresses do.

You can buy these type of dresses from ebay, etsy, or any store that sells vintage/rockabilly/pinup clothing.
Once again it depends on the brand, or it's a true vintage dress how much you will end up spending.

Here is myself wearing one of my wiggle dresses, it's Tiki inspired from the brand MissFortune.

 

No.  3  Pinup/Vintage Tops and Blouses

Owing a pinup/vintage top or blouse is another essential for a vintage inspired outfit. These type of tops/blouses can pair up with wiggle skirts, swing skirts, vintage jeans, trousers and shorts. They come in different colors, styles, patterns and prints etc.
Again you can purchase a blouse/top from ebay, etsy any vintage/pinup/rockabilly clothing stores.

Ranging from prices $20 upwards, depending on your budget and brand!

No.  4  Swing/circle skirt

Owing a swing/circle skirt is another must for a vintage inspired outfit, either a true vintage skirt or a reproduction skirt.

No.  5  1950s Petticoat/Crinoline

Owing a petticoat/crinoline is a must for a vintage inspired wardrobe. They really go great under a swing/circle dress or a skirt, they make it really feel like your wearing a true 1940s/50s clothing piece.

Once again depending on if it's a reproduction brand or if it's true vintage, how much a petticoat/crinoline will cost.
