- Do buy men's vintage oversized tees and jumpers, as they create a sexy, laid back look.
- Don't mix too many different looks, choose a decade that suits your style, otherwise you have the risk of looking like your granma! (if she's stylish, thats fine!).
- Do buy things you love, which are too big, as size can be altered.
- Don't wear it head-to-toe vintage, or you'll look like your off to a fancy dress party.
- Do think about catwalk trends, as designers often use vintage styles as influences for collections.
- Don't impulse buy without checking the return policy, other wise your stuck with it!
