Do you wish to explore the old-money vintage fashion a little more?

Are you making a transition from your Insta baddie phase to Miss Elegant Lady?

Glad you have found us!

In this excerpt below, we will be discussing some of the best vintage elegant, old-money fashion that is making a comeback.

Most importantly, what you will need in your wardrobe to get that look covered.

What Is Old Money Vintage Style?  

Old Money, also known as quite luxury, is a subset of the vintage style. This is all about saying you are made off money without showing it.

Because someone who has generational wealth wouldn’t really be dwelling in fashion for the sake of the brand.

Rather, they would be wearing old pieces upon scouting them from the parent’s closet. Or dive into timeless pieces, like the kind that never goes out of style.

It is okay if you do not have your grandmother’s rich closet to scout from.

The motto of such a fashion is to probably get the best out of your own wardrobe and not dwell in the shallow mob mentality of only buying designer.

Fashion is between you and yourself. It is about looking your best self and not bragging about how someone else’s fashion choices are inferior to yours.

Items With Which You Can Make Your Vintage Old Money Fashion Dream Come True  

Here are some of the old-fashioned trinkets which you will need.

  • A Hat: No old money or vintage piece is complete without a vintage hat. Whether worn by a man or a woman, this hat is a symbol of class and elegance. Plus, it can protect you from the sun on many occasions. A beret, sun hat with mesh, boater, straw Panama hat, and Fedora are just to name a few.

  • Satin Gloves: Some might say it’s too much, but Covid already brought back this fashion, so why not? You can save yourself from contamination in style (just remember to clean them regularly because they are not disposable). You can go for satin tea gloves, which are a shorter version. Or, go all out with the satin opera gloves. The preferred colors are beige, black, ivory white, and pink.

  • Scarves: Scarves are not just a staple for this kind of fashion; it is even useful. How many times have we wanted to save our hair from the wind? Having a scarf around your handbag enhances the old money effect. Plus, it also gives you something to tie your hair with when in need.

  • Pearl: It doesn’t always have to be the real deal! Cultured pearls are also a great way to showcase your elegance. The best part about this jewelry is it goes with everything. So, you do not have to worry about your office look not being ‘old money’ enough.

  • Watches: If there is one item you should invest your dime in, it is to watch. Plus, point if you already find them alluring; they are a staple in any old-money aesthetic. If not a Rolex, go for more known brands like Seiko, Casio, and Tissots. You do not have to

  • Bags: The best part about old money is definitely the subtly it exudes. You do not have to worry about buying over-the-budget designer handbags. Simply buy an entire bunch at once, but always have one watch that you can pair with each outfit. Plain black, brown, or white purses. If you have one of each, you can fashion any of the quite fashionable vintage outfits.
