5 Ways To Wear Our Red Pencil Skirts

Pencil skirts are a great investment, but why always go for black? At My Vintage we have a great range of retro skirts including these gorgeous high waisted stretch pencil skirts in ravishing red.

The cut and fabric make this very flattering and give your a gorgeous smooth line. But wearing a bright red skirt can be a little bit daunting so I have come up 5 different ways to wear ours. No matter what your style you're bound to love one of them!

1. 60s top and cherry necklace...


2. Turtles tee and statement necklace...




3. Leather jacket and gingham scarf...


4. 80s silk shirt and statement necklace...


5. Cherry cardigan and a smile!


At only £25 these gorgeous pencil skirts are a really worthwhile addition to your wardrobe and are great all year round.


And don't forget to let me know your favourite!

Vintage Mixology

So, you love a piece of vintage clothing but then feel unsure how to wear it or what to wear it with. Ring any bells?

I hear this all the time at My Vintage... "Oh I LOVE that..... hmmm but what would you wear it with?"

It can be hard to have the vision of a full outfit, but with a little bit of help I am sure I can encourage you to get creative with vintage!

So it's time for a little bit of vintage mixology. One part My Vintage and three parts High Street = a style cocktail that's set to inspire your wardrobe...

First up we have a great day-to evening look, perfect for a date or a weekend away with the girls...

Next, a cute 1950's inspired look gets a kitsch twist - we love!



And finally, a totally casual look, centered around one of our fab vintage boyfriend jumpers...
