Fashion on the style of "retro" has long and quite firmly took its position. More and more people pay attention to this trend and turn to retro-motives in decorating their apartments, choosing clothes, accessories and even vehicles (for example, retro bicycles are on the lookout for popularity). This interest in "olden times" is fully justified, because things in retro style a priori look unusual and stylish. It should be noted that when deciding on the purchase of an item in this style (whether it is a retro clock for the living room or a light cotton dress with frills), you should distinguish between "retro" and "vintage". The latter suggests that this thing was already used by someone some decades ago and was preserved thanks to the efforts of "hunters of the past". But retro things - it's just a stylization, which will suit everyone, because not everyone, even the most notorious fashionista, agrees to wear something from someone else's shoulder.
Create a retro image
Do not think that the retro style is just rectangular dresses from the 1930's, feathers, mouthpieces and a look with povolokoy. Retro-motifs can be added to a variety of images and irreplaceable helpers in this matter - accessories, for example, wrist watches (similar to vintage). Recognize watches in retro style or in vintage style is quite easy - they are made of materials similar to copper or silver, their dial, as a rule, consists of Roman numerals, and various "scuffs" on the case do not spoil them, but on the contrary, they give a refined charm and aesthetic touch. Such watches can be safely combined with the following elements of the wardrobe:
- a light dress made of chintz or silk "a la Lolita";
- leather sandals or ballet shoes;
- a straw hat (with both wide and narrow margins);
- leather bag with elements of "antiquity".
Such an image would be well complemented with a denim jacket or waistcoat - to finally match the style of an intelligent, meek and delicately sensitive brooding lady.
Varieties of watches in the style of "retro"
Today, online stores feature a wide variety of watches in the style of "retro" and "vintage". They are of different sizes, shapes (round, square and even diamond-shaped), of different shades. In addition, do not think that such watches are worn only on the wrist. Undoubtedly, a wrist watch in retro style is a loud trend, but it's interesting enough that such watch looks on the neck. There are many copies of retro watches on the chain - they can be worn as an unusual and stylish pendant, but still always know the answer to the question: "What time is it?"
As for wristwatches, their main "chip" today is not so much an ornate and unusual dial as a strap. It can be short and weave your wrist in one layer. But the most urgent thing today is a retro watch with a long strap. In order to fasten them, you need to wrap the strap around your wrist several times. Thus, a vintage watch on a long strap combines at once two functions - it is also a means for controlling time, and a stylish bracelet that fits perfectly into the images of "boho-chic". These straps can be simply leather and monophonic, and can be decorated with various rivets, ornaments and drawings. Some women of fashion today even wear two watches on long straps.
Despite the fact that the watches in the style of "retro" are now at the height of fashion, many people can afford this accessory. The cost of these watches in Internet stores starts from $ 15. However, for this price you are not guaranteed that the clockwork will last long.
