Get the Vintage Look – Beautiful Vintage Accessories

May 5, 2023

I’m a bit of a vintage treasure seeker, I love a rummage and I’m always on the look out for gorgeous vintage things to add to my collections. As well as having a big collection fo vintage clothes, I also love to collect accessories. I also have lots of pretty pieces available on Vintage Frills Shop.

Vintage Bags

Vintage bags are a great addition to any collection, because they are something we can use over and over again and they last for years. Whether it’s a beautiful clutch bag for the evening or a larger more versatile bag for day time, there’s a vintage bag for every occasion.

Earrings

I don’t have my ears pierced anymore, so when I do want to wear some fabulous statement vintage earrings, I usually opt for clip ons. I love bold vintage designs such as fruit earrings and cluster earrings.

I’m hoping to pick up some more for the shop soon, as they always sell out so quickly. But here a couple of new additions that I added to the shop last week.

Brooches

I have such a love of vintage brooches. Even though I don’t wear them very often I often display them around the house on trinket dishes or just spend ages admiring my collection. Brooches make the perfect finishing touch to outfits on the lapel of a jacket, to enhance a simple dress or worn to fasten a scarf.

Get the vintage look -Beautiful vintage accessories - A selection of vintage brooches from Vintage Frills ShopI have a bit of an obsession with floral brooches. I particularly love reverse carved lucite, bone china and dried flower brooches and I am always adding pretty floral brooches to the shop as well as my own collection.

Get the vintage look -Beautiful vintage accessories - A selection of embroidered vintage brooches from Catherine's collectionI also collect embroidered brooches and at one point my one collection had over 100 in it! I’ve since downsized to only keep the more quirky and unusual ones, including all of the ones above.

Here are some recent additions to the shop…

Scarves

Scarves are such a great addition to a vintage collection. Wear them in your hair, round your neck or tie them to the strap of your favourite bag, they are so versatile.

Gloves

I adore vintage gloves, we definitely don’t wear gorgeous formal gloves as much as we used to and I think we need to bring them back. For serious vintage wearers, who want a more authentic look, gloves are an absolute must.

Compacts and Mirrors

I always have a vintage Stratton compact mirror in my handbag for checking my lipstick. There are so many beautiful designs out there.

I love adding bright and colourful vintage hair accessories to my outfits. They’re a fun affordable way to add some vintage accessories to your collection.

Bangles

Bangles are one of my favourite accessories for vintage outfits. I have so many different colours in my collection and I love to stack them up in different combinations to match what I’m wearing.

Hats

I don’t wear hats as often as I’f like to as I have a big head and can hardly ever find ones that fit! I do love a pretty straw hat in summer to keep the sun off my face.

This straw hat isn’t a vintage one, but I was so happy to find one that fit!
