Vintage Bags In Style

vintage bags in style

Vintage bags in style.  Without a doubt, bags are my most favourite of all accessories. So much so in fact, that it has always been a dream of mine to collaborate on a handbag line. A great bag has to serve a purpose. It drives me insane when my staples do not fit into my purse and as a result, I am very picky with my choices. Generally I gravitate to structured styles and clean lines. One specific type of bag that I have an affinity for, is a vintage or vintage-inspired purse. I love that it adds character and style to any outfit.

Carrying a vintage bag is definitely a statement. It represents an unconventional woman with with a confident personality, who is not afraid to display her personal style for the world to see.  I choose to carry a vintage style bag when I am wearing a more contemporary outfit. A pair of ripped boyfriend jeans with a tee and a moto jacket perfectly offset the retro feeling of a great clutch. Classic streamlined clothing nicely contrast a fabulously beaded bag, while a structured vintage bag is the ideal compliment to a floral or geometric print. I wouldn’t, however, recommend that you mix too many vintage items as this tends to look costume-y.

If you are looking to incorporate a vintage bag into your wardrobe, but don’t know where to begin, start with an evening clutch. There are many to be found and as long as they are not a designer brand, they can be very affordable.  One of my favourite stores to search out vintage bags is  Fly & Fierce, an online store with some great finds. Look for bags with embellishments and lots of sparkle for that added touch of glamour.  The best part? It will be unique to you and most definitely a standout piece.

A well made vintage bag has already stood the test time. With a little bit of love and care it will surely be a piece that will last you a lifetime!

  1. I love these sandles. So stylish. My all time fav look is to wear heels like these with blue skinny jeans and a statement clutch. It always looks classy and professional, but still casual in a way. I like to have my bags & shoes in a focus when it comes to my outfit 🙂 Can you tell?

  2. Mine are up in the attic and I agree better to wear a few vintage pieces, like to combine vintage and modern elements.

    I’ve always liked the look of vintage bags but didn’t know how to find the right ones or how to take care of them. Very insightful post I’ll be sure to remember your tips if I ever decide to dive into the vintage clothing world.

  7. I love vintage also especially bags and love all types of bags! I own too many lol. I agree that throwing in one piece of vintage bag or clothing to an otherwise contemporary outfit makes it pop!

    1. I know what you mean my bag collection just keeps getting bigger and bigger!
      xo

  8. I am a huge bag fiend too! My LDN closet is full of bags I bought over the yrs, from the raffia and snakeskin ones I got in Nigeria, to the vintage 50s leather one I got in the market. I know what you mean about designing a bag with a bagline.The closest I got to that was back in the day, I used to know a vintage bag seller in London. She would customise leather bags by putting vintage women photos or fairies on them and then adorn the bag with pearls, lace cut outs, sequins etc. So I worked with her in designing a Marilyn Monroe travel case. I have never actually used it, but is fab, and it was so much fun picking the Marilyn pic, the case, and going to habberdashery to choose the bag embellishments! x

  9. Kisses from Italy darling and…. Happy WE!!!!!

    1. Thank you!
      xo

  10. To be honest, I’m not a big fan of vintage bags. However, I love all the shoes you’ve featured in this post!
