On Formspring I was asked the following question, "How can I easily achieve a Vintage look??" I decided to take this question and make a whole series dedicated to the subject {it will be a short series}. =)
Stores -
The easiest way to buy vintage inspired {or real vintage} clothing is from the following stores.
{I've own a dress from them that I won in a giveaway.}
Sewing -
Another great way to get vintage looking clothing is to buy vintage patterns and make your own clothes. This is what I do. =) I find my patterns from Antique Malls/Stores {this is the big one for me} and online vintage pattern stores.

Reproduction
{I bought several of their patterns while at Costume College last year.}
{The first one is vintage inspired. While the second is taken from their archives.}
