Th 10 “I don’t think there’s a worst vintage trend, it’s just personal preference” Dress £20 Pop Boutique vintage Leather jacket £30 New Look Fedora £7 Primark 10 Vintage is really taking off, especially in Leeds. Molly Wood went to interview Cloe at Pop Boutique about her love of vintage as well as a quick guide to to incorporating vintage into your wardrobe on the cheap.
This? It’s vintage, darling... 11 Cloë tells us about her love of vintage How did you get into Vintage? I’ve always been into vintage. When I was little my mum took me charity shopping and that’s how it started. What is your favourite era? I think my favourite is 70’s. I’m a big fan of the bohemian look and flares and patterns and that sort of thing, yeah *laughs*. Who do you take the biggest inspiration from? I wouldn’t say a particular person, I just really like the 70’s look but I guess someone like Stevie Nicks is pretty cool, someone like her. What is the best thing about working in Vintage Retail? It’s always nice when you get a delivery in and you get to have a rummage through the clothes and you get to feel the clothes, that’s always good. It’s very laid back here and I work with a really good group of people. What is your best vintage purchase? I’ve got so many. Recently actually I went to an Oxfam in Harrogate and upstairs they’ve got a specialist vintage selection and I got a really beautiful, like, Indian embroidered Kaftan with beautiful, gold embroidered onto it. That was a really good buy, it was only like £20. “Leeds’ amazing collection of shops will never fail you” Leeds loves vintage In your opinion, what is the worst vintage led trend? I don’t think there’s a worst vintage trend, it’s just personal preference. For me personally, I’ve never been a fan of the 80’s. It’s just, some of it is quite garish but like I said, it’s just personal preference. Do you think Leeds has a good vintage carry on? Yeah, we’ve got a few good shops definitely, it’d be nice if there was some more and maybe more charity shops would be good but we’ve got a nice selection to go around, yeah. Incorporating vintage into your wardrobe is a lot easier than you think. Whether you’re into skirts and dresses or Jeans and shorts, Leeds’ amazing collection of shops will never fail you. No longer are you ridiculed for being seen in second hand clothing, you’re looked on as someone who is cool, well dressed and is slaying the fashion game #OnPoint. From Pop Boutique and its vintage inspired line, to Blue Rinse and it’s never ending stock of vintage classics and onto the monthly vintage kilo sale where £15 will get you a full outfit, you have so much free reign to not only look good, but save the environment by buying somebodies preloved clothing. You’re in good company buying vintage with celebrities from Alexa Chung to Harry Styles being connoisseur’s of hunting out the best vintage whilst they jet around the world. However, for you guys sat reading this in rainy Leeds, don’t worry, there is something there for you! Stripes never go out of style and always add an efortless, Parisian spin to a simple jeans and boots or skirts and flats combo, as Alexa knows well, with it pretty much being her uniform (above). However, you might be into florals, a big trend for <strong>2016</strong>.Teamed with a leather biker and a fedora (left) you’ll look effortlessly 70’s with a rocky spin, perfect.
