    Hiiii a couple things: 1. Sorry for the cheesy music hahaha, it's tough to find 70's music that isn't copywritten so gimme a break πŸ˜‚πŸ˜­ 2. These are all from my local Savers, and 3. The wig I'm wearing is from 'wfp-wigs' on eBay! They have a good selection of more 70's style wigs, including some great mullet selections πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ Okay das it I love you all!
  • I was in my 20s during the 70s (and now I face being in my 70s during the 2020s!)...and I enjoyed going back and forth between looking like the girl from the "I'd like to buy the world a Coke" ad to Stevie Nix's witchy look. I still love wearing my velvet top hats, especially the purple one!

    Fun video idea: some of your pieces styled as 70s/40s/etc with different accessories and hair and makeup! Like a "One Piece, Many Decades" thing!
  • Goalsssss "I just wanna look like a archaeologist from the 1930s." "My goal is make my house seem like a museum." MEEEE Like thats my goal. I LOVVVVEEE houses that have a very archaeologist vibe. Like with old artifacts or old maps hanging on the walls, globes and things from different cultures around the house. I loved the house at the end of Uncharted 4 because it had that feel. Thats like my goal when I get my own place eventually. I like being in the presence of history and culture. Makes me feel like home and it inspires me.

    I looooove this explorer style you're gravitating toward! ITS SO CUTE. Also-- THAT PASELY SHIRT IS EVERYTHING! Your house is so adorable and inviting. Goalssss. <3
  • @kaylag9579
    Yes!!! I got about 7 dresses from a coworker that are true vintage 70's dresses that she gave me because she wanted someone to love and wear them. Pretty much all I wear haha
  • @vmontgomery80
    I love the paisley shirt with the suede skirt. Totally cute.πŸ‘
  • @xlovelybirdy
    Your Sister is into Boho Style, isnt she? What about a 70s/Fleetwood Mac Lookbook together? πŸ™‚ have a nice week

    40's, 50's, 60's, 70's... It doesn't matter what time period, you always look amazing and find the best clothes. Even if 70's isn't my cup of tea, those clothes just made me change my mind πŸ˜† It's good to see that, sometimes in the vintage community we feel the need to always keep our styles in a specific era. It's good to change up! Life is too short πŸ˜‚ Actually I'm a mess, I like to mix everything lol 40's, 50's, 60's, medieval, steampunk, sometimes 90's/80's. At least we are happy, that's all that matters πŸ˜‚

    "WOULD EVIE WEAR THIS?" YES!!! <3 i officially love you forever for that reference, Evie, and all things librarian/archeology are awesome! And this was such a fun video, yay for trying new stuff and enjoying it! :)
  • @TheBygoneGal
    That paisley top was absolutely the right decision to get πŸƒ
  • Don't get me wrong, I adore your 40s style but I enjoyed this thrift haul so much! My favourite outfit is indeed the paisley shirt/ corduroy skirt combo, you look so good! Btw if you're looking for a button down (faux) suede skirt you should check the one by the brand Bright & Beautiful on the Collectif site! I got it after watching your haul from Collectif and I don't think I want to take it off. Ever. I'll probably be buried in it. (Psst! I checked, it's called the India skirt and it's still on sale for Β£7.88) I love the suit and the Laura Ashley skirt as well. Also "would Evie wear this" are words to live by, take that Bembridge scholars! The 'wow' @9:49 is very Owen Wilson of you πŸ˜‚ I swear, when I start to make his impression, it's hard to sto
  • @maricella888
    Yeah a new video!! You have a real talent as a stylist. The paisley top, skirt and those boots so 1970-72! I'm thinking something Marlo Thomas would've worn in the last season of her TV show ," That Girl". I agree right now you can wear any era of clothing. No rules!
  • Excellent, you have great taste for each era that you dress for. I was in my 20s during the 1970s. You bring back great memories and you made those outfits look very nice.
  • @lugh8592
    I usually watch more recent Rachel who is basically a hobbit so this was really quite jarring πŸ˜‚
  • @yvettejones5323
    Omg, I love, love, LOVE the hair!!! The bangs and beautiful brunette color look fabulous on you!!!
  • @jennors16
    I too have been falling in love with actual 70's styles! I love when getting dressed is a new chance at a different era! It makes life more exciting! Also your video totally activated my google home, LOL! Loved your haul!
