ULTIMATE VINTAGE FALL + HALLOWEEN PINUP SHOPPING WISHLIST

Dear Bygone Gals,

Autumn is my absolute favorite time of year for fashion. I’ve been swooning over so many pretty dresses on Instagram from some really great vintage inspired brands. But sometimes I get a little sad looking at all the beautiful outfit photos online thinking 1) I can’t afford it all 2) I don’t really need it all. Since I’m a bygone gal who also is a bit of a minimalist, I try not to buy a lot of novelty prints anymore (except for a select few I know I’ll get good use out of!).
So I thought I’d try to make a fun way of admiring all the pretty clothes out there by doing some virtual window shopping together! The links are all below to take you to the websites where you can find the prices, but right here we’re not caring about that and just browsing and getting inspiration!
Also, I’ve found some really great pieces for fall just from Goodwill that you can watch in this video! There’s no shame in mixing and matching thrifted items with vintage repro brands! Having vintage inspired name brand clothes can be great but it doesn’t define who you are in the retro community. Just be creative and do you!

So let’s get started:
KITSCHY WITCH DESIGNS creates unique skirts, dress, and accessories with her artistic novelty designs that a nostalgic of vintage Halloween postcards.  
LADY V LONDON has elegant evening wear pieces in autumn florals.

SON DE FLOR makes simple and sustainable pieces in twill and wool.
PALAVA CO is vintage woodland fairytale goals and I adore their Scottish Highlands collection this year.
COLLECTIF has me starstruck with these unique pieces and they have the best winter coats.
Sourpuss Clothing has the best mix of retro spooky goth style and the truly understand my love for black cats and bats on EVERYTHING! They’re one of the best sources for carrying other brands like Retrolicious and Hell Bunny as well, which are sometimes hard to find.

Hell Bunny has the cutest “miss muffet” spider web skirts and tops and I really adore this enchanted forest print as all. I’m always trying to combine my love for spooky vintage woodland fairytale, and this is all of those!

How I didn’t know about Emmy Designs Sweden until AFTER I moved away from Sweden is beyond me. I adore their very true 1940s style with pieces that actually will keep you warm in fashionable during the long winters.

Mod Cloth has really gorgeous fall basics with the perfect skirts to go for a walk through the autumn forest and look at that cape! I also really admire their accessories like these colored tights, bags, and hats. Voodoo Vixen is right out of my autumn English countryside dreams. Heart of Haute has the best fitted blouses in autumn colors. Unique Vintage is killing it with their spider webs lace, I feel like Morticia Addams would totally shop here and I had a hard time must picking my favorite pieces to share. They also carry Mischief Made Me cardigans of my dreams with bats, webs, and autumn leaves!Pinup Girl Clothing making Hogwarts house dreams come to life!The queen of gothic glamour Micheline Pitt has two clothing companies La Femme en Noir & Vixen which both exude all the bad girl vibes.The Oblong Box has the prettiest spider web collection which has a very soft touch to it.MISS CANDY FLOSS  has the sweetest 1940s and 1950s styles in perfect tartan combinations. Lindy Bop has so many pieces I’m crushing on!

Really adore this pumpkin hat jumpers  and striped pinafore from Ains Elke Style Haus on Etsy.I love Doll Me UP for vintage hair scarves and cropped cardigans that go with any outfit.

Other Sparrows is the go to for every color of beret you could hope for.

Etsy can be the best place to find unique hand made jewelry for any season like these from Fox and Rose and Femme de Bloom.

When it comes to makeup for fall I’m all about the dark lips and these from Besame Cosmetics are ravishing.

For shoes I’m all about boots for tromping through pumpkin patches and rustling through the leaves. These Victorian beauties from Oak Tree Farms are absolutely stunning. I’m loving BAIT Footwear and their multi colored granny boots that will go with so many autumn outfits. Breckelles are also my new favorites for hiking.

Wow, and that’s the end of my ultimate fall + Halloween shopping wish list! It is my birthday month after all so I may just have to treat myself to a few of these beauties. Did I leave out some items you’ve had your eye on or get a new inspiration? Let me know in the comments below! Hope you’re all having a lovely October!
