Talk about a blast from the past.

Thrifting and antique shopping are all the rage right now, and there’s a reason. It’s because certain things never go out of style and it’s time these vintage accessories make their comeback. Vintage accessories are remaking their claim to fame for this spring season and I’m not mad about it. The front runner on this burst back into the limelight is the classic silk scarf.

Vintage scarves have been a staple in the feminine wardrobe for years. Designer after designer have come out with different patterns and ways in which to style them. From head scarves to ascots to an accent on purses, scarves can help polish off any look and bring a retro vibe to your outfit, and what is a fabulous head scarf without a glamorous pair of sunglasses to complete the vintage Hollywood glam look.

Sunglasses in a variety of colors and shapes are a must this spring season. Adding a pair of glasses is a great way to give some elegance and groove to any ensemble, especially when paired with a hat, headpiece or scarf. Those aren’t the only accessories we expect to see this spring. Lace finger gloves have also stepped back into society and have become a must have for many of today’s influencers.

Lace gloves are a feminine touch that can be versatile within your wardrobe. When paired with a slip dress, they can add elegance. When layered under rings or bracelets, they can present as edgy. Either way you like it, gloves will be a great item to have this spring to elevate your outfit of the day.

As mentioned before, jewelry can play a vital role in changing the aesthetic of an outfit, and vintage jewelry has come a long way to be back at the forefront of trending looks. Today, fashion lovers thrive on searching for one of a kind pieces and vintage jewelry allows for that need to be fulfilled. The big trend in vintage jewelry we see most today is pearl stranded chokers and necklaces. Pearls add elegance and embellishment and, when paired with other similar pieces, can provide cohesion.

The last and final vintage accessory that we all can’t seem to get enough is the hair clip. Those clips of many different shapes, sizes and colors have taken the “quick and dirty” updo to the next level. By elevating the simplest of hair dos, these claw clips have once again captivated women everywhere because of their ease and timeless look.

Overall, vintage accessories are a powerful tool in your repertoire, and they deserve their time, again, in the spotlight. The trend forecast is that these vintage influences will be highly prevalent this spring 2022 fashion season.
