Adventurous Evenings - Vintage Style Outfits for Evenings Abroad
Вставка
- Опубліковано 11 вер 2024
- A few of you have asked me for videos with more formal or evening appropriate vintage style clothes, and while I am not one to leave the house much after dark myself, and as a result don't actually own much evening wear compared to day wear, I wanted to oblige with a suggestion of ensembles for adventurous evenings!
I thrifted the black gown and the final beaded dress this past week so I would finally have some true evening wear to style for you all, and I was so very happy to find them! "True" vintage or even just vintage style evening gowns can be very expensive, so I was happy to find more modern but workable gowns for a steal out at the thrift shops.
It would mean a lot to me if those of you who enjoyed this video could share it with someone else you think may like it as well, it really helps me out! Thank you all so much!
As with all my recent adventure style videos, I will again suggest that any of those in a place to do so please consider donating to Unicef and/or Save The Children to help with their ongoing and emergency work in Sudan. Stay aware of the goings on in our wide world, please practice empathy, and stay safe out there.

Exactly! ;)
Hahaha, love it.
WOW! I'm so enjoying this series! Your voice over is fantastic!
Thank you!
I hope you find a place to go wearing that purple gown. 30's glamour, yowza! I am really enjoying your channel and look forward to each new post.
Thank you Diane! So do I, I had so much fun wearing it just for this even :) Maybe I ought to go downtown for an overpriced cocktail just to wear it!
YEEESSSS TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THAT BACKGROUND YOU WORKED SO HARD ON!!!! Love this, Love these look books! great job!
Thank you JoJo!
YES! That last dress was awesome! The reveal with the purple material was so dramatic, literal goals!
Thank you! I had to go full drama, the dress demanded it ;)
Sunshine Cakes lol it’s true! She looks so glamorous!
@@TheClosetHistorian you slayed in that dress
Hubba hubba in that final number! Bombshell! And of course I loved all the other looks. The palms and orchid gloves was a bold combo and I loved it!!! Did you make the kimono print blouse? Another great piece of content. Thanks for all your hard work.
Thank you! The gold Japanese print one? If so, yes, and it's actually a quilting cotton from Joann!
Wow!! You look DROP DEAD GORGEOUS in those floor length gowns!
Also, love the Egyptian inspiration :)
Thank you!
The floor length gowns were my favorites
That last dress....... Stunning! Although I also loved the leopard print belt and hat. I love these retro style fashion videos! I know they take a lot of time and planning, but they are my favorite. 😊

Thank you Carole!
Loved the witty voice over. Almost didn't recognize your voice. Breathtaking fashion show. Each outfit was more fabulous than the last. I must ask:. Where'd you get that beautiful hand painted skirt with the gold foiling? Did you really get it from Mexico? Positively to die for.
P.S. Had to watch it twice.
Thank you Darnelle! The hand painted skirt is vintage, I got it on Etsy, and it was sold to me as a Mexican souvenir skirt though this one has no label. This style of skirt pops up now and again online, and they were most often indeed souvenir items from Mexico. There are really elaborate ones painted on velvet with sequins out there too that I'd love to have an example of someday :)
@@TheClosetHistorian It's amazing. I'm going to be looking for one too. Although I have absolutely no idea where I'll wear it, I'm sure I'll find the perfect occasion.
I'll create the perfect occasion.
Great outfits. Very elegant and nicely presented. The last dress 😙 simply divine. WOW
Thank you!
Especially the way you reveal it!!! Xo
Adore it all the clothes, you, the set, the voiceover everything Devine I enjoy your channel so very much!
Thank you Olivia!
Bravo, my dear, bravo!👏👏👏
I know you're probably aware but you have a beautiful hourglass figure.
Thank you Rebecca!
I hope you have a daring deviant. I really enjoyed this video. I love your newsreel intros. You put so much work into this.
Thank you!
This was an amazing TCH production. :) - - The Closet Historian. Brilliant! This was a pleasant surprise. I had a boyfriend back in college who loved doing these kinds of things. I'm always amazed by the creativity involved in creating cinema and fashion.
P.S. The bee motif - - ingenious!
Thank you Darnelle!

CH: Save a little gin out there for the rest of us!
Me: How did she know? *sips martini slowly*
1. The painted skirt is a favorite of mine.
2. The shot of you in the leopard print hat when you're doing a close up and smiling wasxterrific.
3. The black gown was beautifully classic.
4. The blue gown at the end was stunning!
Thank you!
Absolute perfection!!! Love the outfits and the presentation... you are one classy dame!
Thank you!
Beyond stunning - the powerful art of walking into a room and just cancelling everyone else in there! Wow.
Thank you!
I'm loving the vintage informational video style. Also the dress at 6:07 and the last one are gorgeous.
Thank you Destinee!
You look like a movie star when movie stars were gorgeous and stunningly beautiful!!
Thank you Susan!
Wow! Another amazing video! You have a very beautiful soothing voice. How great it would be to listen to you read an adventure novel from a bygone era! The clothes are beautiful. I would love for you to be my stylist and personal shopper!
Thank you Emma!
This is one of my favorite videos. Excellent job.

Absolutely stunning! Your two new gowns are both gorgeous!

These are my favorite videos that you do. They get to the heart of it, you show how to do retro style like a breeze. Your voice over is soooooo great and very dry comedic. Super fun! Keep them coming!

Great to see you wearing that stunning blue/purple evening long dress. So lovely.
Thank you Marie! It is a fun one!
Hubba hubba hubba. Gorgeous. Love the last one. Inspired.
I love love love your adventure series!! It's so creative and thematic. As I get closer to my 30s, I'm realizing it's always better to be overdressed than underdressed.
Thank you!
Fabulous! Keep using those crates to such good effect, and they will become a signature of your vibe!
I adore these looks! Especially the 20s ones.
Thank you Elaine!
Absolutely fantastic! The filming, editing, fashion, and your amazing sense of humor...I thoroughly enjoyed it all! If this were a real advertisement, my bank account would be in deep trouble!
Thank you Abi!
“Temptingly tropical triumph”❤️❤️❤️
You looks beautiful I would like to see vintage skirtsuits and dresses and more evening wear and 🤠 hats and costumes thanks for showing you're a beautiful lady and so talented.
More! More! More! Come to Glamorous LA...... stand in a port. I don't care..... I love the boxes..... it is like your green wall. There is a photographer I follow that did different photo shoots in front of the same green wall for like 10 years. It was wild. I love your glam look books!
Thank you Gigi! I'd love to visit LA again, it's been a few years since I've been able to and I want to go try on more shoes at the Remix Vintage store on Beverly blvd. I lived in LA for my freshman year of college (I went to Woodbury University in Burbank.)
That last dress is incredible, ahh! Loved them all though, but there's something about those 20's looks and the dark eyes that suit you so beautifully. And absolute A+ for the voice over, loved all the alliteration scattered throughout.
Thank you! I do love me some alliteration :)
Wow! I feel like the inside of your closet must be a truly magical place.
Thank you! I just rearranged it this weekend and it was quite nice ;)
This is soooooooo fun! Did you say, "at the old Cataract Hotel"?!?!? You are hysterical! And that hand painted black/gold skirt is TO DIE FOR! For someone who doesn't own much evening wear, you put together quite a show my dear! Kudos!!
Thank you! Yes the Old Cataract in Aswan Egypt! I'd love to visit it someday :)
you are churning out the content!! we are so lucky!
Yes!
Thank you!
You and your highlight are KILLING it. I was really impressed by the final gown. Loved the alliterations, so fun to listen you talking
Thank you! The highligher is Flexitarian from Colourpop, I love that darn highlighter ;)
That last dress made me clutch my pearls. Gorgeous!
Thank you!
How can someone dislike this? It's awesome. Some surprises in there too with the 20s numbers. The wow factor award goes to the blue sparkly! Amazing! You have the perfect voice for the voiceover too!
Thank you!
LOVE LOVE LOVE the formats that you've done ....News reals and travel logs. YOU ROCKED IT.
Thank you Linda!
Stunning. Boy did you step up the vintage youtube game.
Thank you Sabrina!
Absolutely brilliant! From the filming and voiceover script to the poses and musical selections. Bravo on an exceptional and inspired piece.
Thank you Leigh-Ann!
Oh my gosh! So lovely all. You really know how to style and model your vintage finds/makes. And your curvy figure really shows off the 30/40's looks. I wud have liked to see some close-ups of the shoes. Thx so much for sharing you knowledge of lovely vintage styles! I've been so tempted to sew all my things vintage since I've bn watching your vlog.
Thank you Barbara! There will be a shoe collection video from me someday, but it will be verrrrry long ;)
You brought the drama in the purple gown. The entire video was fun and informative. TFS
Thank you!
So many gorgeous ebsembles but I love how you summer-ize black outfits. I struggle with that and usually don't wear much black in the summer but it looks so light and airy on you, it gave me ideas. Thank you! Also, the ivory outfit was stunning on you! You really know which colors play up your features.
Thank you Melanie! I have a lot of black in general so it's a year round thing for me, then again I don't often have to be out in the heat in it, so that's probably how I survive doing that!
Absolutely love this video very creative and a lot of fun to watch really you knocked it out of the ballpark and of course you look lovely as always, .
Thank you Penny!
Good lawd, that last dress though! 😱
Thanks! It was such a lucky find!
WAUW! Bianca you are such a babe!!!!
Love these videos, your voice-over is both interesting and fun. Thank you so much for sharing

Perfection! Loved the Mexican skirt outfit and the Tut outfit made me gasp, and I also like the bright colored chiffon with teeny purse.ok, I loved it all. I so enjoy your uploads.

That last dress is such a stunner!!! 👗✨😱😍 Loved this lookbook! 👏☺️
Thank you! I was so happy when I found it out thrifting!

Love the blue dress, it’s very similar to my grad(prom) dress...20 years ago, great memories in that dress
Thank you! I imagine this was someone's prom dress as well, there are a lot of prom dresses at thrift shops near me but they're not usually ones I like so I was super happy to find this beaded number!
Omg that last dress!!! Love all the outfits, it makes me want to wear something other than ripped jeans
Thank you Pamela! I want to find some reason to actually wear that dress ha!
So much work put into this. And it shows. A real snack to watch.
Thank you!
