{Create the Look} 40s Vintage Sophisticate

What do you do when you love vintage style but not necessarily the muted colors and lace details that often define a vintage wedding? May I present: 40s Vintage Sophisticate or Vintage Chic.

Think bold rich colors, simple use of color and exquisite detailing from fine tailored clothing. Influenced by one of my favorite eras for style, this look works great for city weddings and couples with a clean and modern taste.

With this look a little goes a long way. Square buttons and simple ribbon add vintage style with a clean modern look.

Pinstripes don’t have to be confined to the groom and groomsmen. They can add classic details to your fashion and wedding decor. {photo credit top: Weddings by Two}

Sure, part of this look is all about attitude…but the clothes help too!

Even your wedding memories can be classic vintage, like using a vintage typewriter as a guestbook alternative or vintage photography. {typewriter photo via Ruffled; wedding photos: Weddings by Two}
