I enjoyed doing the previous get the look post so much that I thought I'd do a 1930's inspired one!
Clothes
The thirties are often quite an overlooked era, but they have a lot of amazing fashions. Key essentials in the 30s included calf-length hemlines, A-line skirts, large buttons, mustardy, muted jade and reddish-brown tones, cap or puff sleeves, neckline details such as a peter pan collar, T-bar stacked heels, tilt hats, lace up ankle boots with rounded toes, full length, cut on the bias and draped evening dresses, dark velvets in jewel tones, deep v-necks (front and back) full length skirts, fishtail skirts, scalloped edges and art deco cut jewels.

| A classic 30s look with a tilted hat, collar, gloves and a vintage clutch. |
 |
| This look also includes a hat along with a calf-length ribbed dress and high collar. |
1930s hair included styles from the 20s such as finger waves and pin curls with a few adaptations.
 |
| Hair was smooth at the roots but fluffy with bouncy curls at the ends. |
Eyeshadow was champagne coloured and shimmery, with a neutral light brown colour through the socket. Eyebrows were extremely thin as you can see in the photo above, and were often all plucked off and drawn on, but you can just define yours with an angled brush. There were lashings of mascara with a subtle peachy blusher on the apples of the cheeks. Lips were full with a rounded cupid's bow. You may need to line outside your natural lips to create this!
A great guide for this look is the Style Me Vintage Make Up, Hair and Clothes trio, as it is a companion for creating any vintage inspired look!
I hope you enjoy recreating this look for a party, a night out, or just for fun!
