We know that you have acquired a cult for anything that reminds you of the past. And when we say "past", we mean everything that concerns the decades from the '60s to the 2000s. We don't know the reason why Vintage came back into fashion, but we certainly know that every era has its positives and negatives. From this retro-love you can keep only the elements that make you feel beautiful, maybe even cause a sweet nostalgia...
We, with the following easy ways, will help you revive the aesthetics of these decades, incorporating certain elements of them into your everyday life, without appearing to be left behind.
Decorate your space with retro objects
Add elements of a bygone era to your home interior. You can customize how retro your space will be by choosing to add just a few vintage pieces, or by completely transforming your home into a retro home, with wallpaper, sideboards, chests of drawers, Danish coffee tables and living rooms, even a rotary dial telephone.
Listen to music from a record player or cassette player
Let's face it! The means by which people used to listen to music in the past are among our favorite retro elements: from the phonograph to the jukebox and from the record players to the huge 80's cassette players. We have, perhaps, associated them with the "innocence" of a song or the heartbeats caused by a playlist on a cassette from the blond, blue-eyed boy from the next class. Even if you don't want to part with your air pods and spotify , you can simply decorate your living room with an old gramophone that no longer works.
Dress in retro pieces
To tell the truth, you will be back in fashion because in 2021 fashion is reviving the style of the '70s-'90s anyway. However, if you want to be kind to the environment, you can choose second hand , which in addition to having a story to tell, is a kind of recycling and does not burden the planet. Jenny Blond is what you need in this case, as it renews its e - shop every week with beautiful and unique second hand pieces in excellent condition.
Watch old movies and series
Back when everything wasn't done quickly and haphazardly, movies and then TV series were few and of much higher quality (for the most part). Try watching French film noirs from the 60s, Greek color comedies, 80s-90s coming - of - age American comedies and other productions that might interest you from past decades.
Abstain from technology
Of course, we don't mean living in your own world and cutting yourself off from everyone. But, vintage is not a fashion, it's a lifestyle. So, take breaks from your mobile phone, go on a trip without going online at all and take photos from an old Polaroid . Keep your relationships alive with people by calling them from your landline instead of sending a dry message. Finally, enjoy a few moments of peace by turning off everything and reading a good book on the balcony!
