This summer build a great wardrobe with these 20 essentials - Vintage ShopIreenasamuel
Recycled vintage clothing, a fashion trend that combines vintage and high street clothing, is turning out to be a fashion rage. As an ode to simplicity, it suits all types of personalities. As a statement of authentic fashion, it has come to stay. And the best place to fill up your summer wardrobe essentials is from an American used clothing company.
In the large scope of men’s fashion, luxury menswear has historically aligned itself with the tailored rules that govern how a man is expected to present himself. But in recent years, that heritage has been hijacked by a new era of designers whose garments proudly orient themselves into realms like accessibility, youthfulness, gender neutrality and, ultimately, fashion with a capital F.
Fashion has been a part of our culture In fact,there have been both bad and good fashion trends in every decade. Therefore, 1950's men's fashion trends were influenced by 1950's attitudes and beliefs.

you even open your
mouth!

Your No. 1 priority is how big the waves are. You don’t care what’s going on in the real world. Your world is the beach. Your
outfit of choice is a bikini and rash guard, with sheepskin boots (of course). Your colour palette is red, yellow, and blue —
all paired with sand or off-white. The bright colours are reminiscent of all the beautiful foliage in Hawaii. Plus, they let other
surfers know you’re coming when you catch the big wave!

going on at the same time.
Rather than attempting to develop
different styles for different occasions,
work on finding ways to use your
Personal Style as a common thread in
any outfit you put together.
