ViNtAgE American / Ameican Chick

This summer there are many clothes out there where you could easily fit into the category. From either a nice little floral/gingham dress with a more than oversized clutch, and a pair of cute little block coloured high heels to finish the look of. Many high street shops have taken to the trend and can be seen to hold stock which would fit into the category.

The American Vintage look can also be helped to look better if maybe you added a belt to the waste to make you look slimmer, and draw attention to it.

This Bow Back dress £38 from Urban Outfitters does the job perfectly of creating that vintage look, accessorising it and adding shoes which add hight to you, which in a way shows your legs off more.

The floral print is what you need to be looking for when looking for this look. The model of clothing needs to have a flow to it, and i would not go for anything which is to tightly fitted (tightly fitted dress), as this does not fit into the trend. That is the job for the thick belt you should be looking out for as well.


The Vintage American look takes on the idea of having no straps as well so find a dress that lays on the bust and almost draws attention towards its self.

Accessorise with hand bags as well. Make sure they are the same colour as a colour in your outfit.




It is not only the pretty look of vintage american that is around but the grungy look, with tight level skirts and a bikers jacket, with a hand bags that compliments one colour in the triage of colour that is maybe in the outfit. You also have cat's eye style sunglasses all shapes and sizes but all will probably fit into the category.  The metallic dresses fit into the category as well, and keep on remembering while looking at this list of many that it is all about the waste. Blazer can be worn with skirts and skirts can be worn with floral t-shirts, with the skirt pulled right up to the waste.
Just think when creating this look, you want vintage and to draw attention to the waste and you will be fine.

Make-up is also a big factor which needs to be added, including a lot of red lipstick and eye make-up, check out this website for more.
