I also wrote a while blog post about the show with some more photos if you are interested! www.carolinapinglo.com/2022/05/toronto-vintage-clothing-show-spring.html
Oh my goodness, I would be in heaven amongst all those stunning pieces, there's something really special about vintage clothing and accessories, I feel as if they have so much personality and style.
I was on cloud 9 when shopping ! I couldn’t agree more, there are way more design elements and the clothes are much more flattering because they were made better back then
Really nice video, great place and wonderful finds. All the clothing looks great on you. Next you should do a video on vintage shoes and boots :) - sorry if you have one already, I have not seen it yet. I love your style. I wonder if there is a place like that in the USA, specifically in California. I am new to this, but I think it's my new style, I have started to adopt it. I am in my 50s and my kids are all grown. Now I can start to be fancy and focus on myself. At least try. Thank you for your video.😊🌹
Yay, so glad you did a vlog at the show! It looked amazing and your outfit was just gorgeous, really love the detail of that diamanté belt! My favourite of your finds was for sure that first 1920s one, stunning!!! 😱👏😍But that blue dress with the perfectly matching accessories is a true find, such a classic look!!!
Thank you so much !! I’ve had that belt since I was like 15 I hacwnt worn it In years ! I’m obsessed with the 1920s dress ! I also love all the matching accessories, something I don’t see much of these days
I absolutely loved seeing all the gloves you got!! Gloves are my favorite accessory and I just loved seeing all of them!! Will you be doing an in depth video of ALL the gloves you own? If so, I really hope you do! If not, then no harm no foul.
Love your videos just curious how do you clean all the items you thrift would love to know I thrift alot but am hesitant to buy alot of things cuz I don't know how to clean them
Thank you ! I always freeze anything I buy second hand for at least 1 week. Then I either hand wash or dry clean them, I spend way too much money on dry cleaning lol. Vintage hats are a bit tricky because most can't be washed. In that case I would freeze them for 2 weeks and spot clean inside and dust/brush the outside. Same with purses
The 1940s dress set...ahhh...! 😍 Do you remember how much it cost? Really helps with comparison shopping, though pieces like that one are rather priceless, of course! Oh, and that lady was right: those sunglasses really suit you! On some people they can look costume-ish, but on you they somehow just integrate into your overall look. ☺️
The 1940s is a two piece set so it’s actually a skirt and a top ! I got it for $100 which seems expensive but compared to prices I’ve seen online I thought it was quite reasonable. It was the most expensive thing I got
@@CarePinglo Thanks for letting me know! Yes, actually, compared to some prices I've seen as well, that's not excessive for a beautiful 1940s true vintage outfit in such great condition. I'm very happy you were able to find it!
All pieces are beautiful! My favourites? Easy! The 1920s flapper dress and the 1940s blue with coral trimming. And the cat eye sun glasses look perfect on you ❤
Wow you got so many beautiful pieces! I'm sad I didn't go! Hopefully I will in the fall time. :) Loved the shots at the clothing show and seeing everything on display!
The prices were very reasonable, most expensive was the blue matching set which was $100 but it’s from the 40s and in perfect condition (way cheaper than prices I’ve seen online) . Hats were around $15-20, handbag was $20, 1920s dress and light blue dress were $40.
Always had a love-hate relationship with scarves, such as the one at 13:40. Do you think it just takes time getting used to? You seem to rather enjoy it. :) Or, is it a thing one just gets/doesn't get right from the get-go?
I saw you at the show on Saturday! You are seriously stunning! I loved the clothing, but I only ended up getting some vintage sewing patterns and notions.
Wearing gloves during the summer will also help protect your hands from getting sunburned (especially when driving) and prematurely aging them. Even the best sun screen will not trump a physical barrier to UV rays. And for some reason, the hands seem to get more easily damaged by UV rays than anywhere else on the body. My thoughts. Have a good day Carolina.
@@CarePinglo If anything causes regular glove wearing to come back, it's probably going to be for sun protection (and age spot prevention) for the hands.
Haha !! I truly have no idea! I imagine there are vintage shows like this scattered across the US , especially in New York. It’s worth looking into if somewhere close to you has a vintage show/fair
@@CarePinglo I want to!! I have googled this a bit and haven't found one legit fair where we can buy things, that happens at a regular time! I'm not near Cali so won't look there, but I can't seem to find something like this in the US! I'm gonna keep searching though because this is such a dream! :)
