The 1940s were a period where there was an upsurge of women empowerment. The tailored pantsuit therefore became a symbol of feminine strength and grace making it a perfect vintage outfit inspiration.

Petticoats & Skirts: Flirty and Feminine

Add extra sass to your vintage look by adding a bold red lip with cat-eye eyeliner. A red lip instantly adds sophistication, while the cat-eye offers a timeless, polished finish.
