OOTD: Sailor


Hi!
Welcome back to my blog! Here I am again with another outfit! I hope you're not getting bored of it yet because I'm planning to keep the outfits coming!

This dress is one of my favourites, but it's a little risky because there's a lot of cleavage. Everything else about this dress is AMAZING. I really love the white colar!

Normally I'd wear this outfit with heels but most of the time I walk to school and so heels aren't very comfortable. If you've ever been to Bruges, you'll know that the streets aren't exactly made for walking in heels!


 

I hope you're having an amazing day!
Thanks for reading!

OOTD: Like the old times



Hi!
How have you guys been doing? I recently got a few new basics from H&M. This sweater was one of them. When I was checking out, the cashier and I were talking about ways to wear this sweater when all of a sudden she said: "This would look amazing with a pencil skirt!",
we talked a little more and I actually ended up wearing this with a pencil skirt! It got really cold the day I was going to wear this outfit, so I decided to wear tights underneath this skirt.
Even though this outfit is quite dark, I like it! I especially like the scarf in my hair as a detail - it's thesame pattern as my skirt and I think it's cute!

Cardigan: H&M
Sweater: H&M
Skirt: Topvintage
Scarf: Topvintage
Shoes: New Look

Hope you're all having a good day! Thanks for reading!

OOTD: Pretty Pastels


Hey you guys!
How have you been doing? I've had so many changes in my life recently, it's a bit crazy!
There's a few changes that I'm really proud of and one of the changes is my choice to go through life as a pin-up girl no matter what ANYBODY says.

This is one of the outfits that I wore to school recently.
Yes, I said "one of the" outfits, more outfit posts are coming up soon!


I'm actually wearing a burgundy T-shirt underneath the white cardigan, but you can't see it.
Anyway, everything in this outfit post exept for my skirt is by H&M.
I got my skirt from Topvintage.nl, it's my favourite online vintage/pin-up shop! 

Do you like this outfit?

OOTD: Parrot


Hello everyone!
I'm so excited about this outfit! This dress is probably my favourite dress EVER!
It's a babyblue dress with parrots on it, I like it so much! I had a little bit of trouble figgering out how I wanted to wear my cardigan over top, but just wearing it open took away from the "wow" effect of my dress (or at least that's what I thought), so after playing around with it, I decided to put it in a knot.
Cute!

My cardigan and my nude ballet flats are by H&M. I got my dress from Topvintage.nl.

OOTD: Swinging

Hey everyone! 
How have you been doing?
I'm back and better than ever! The good thing about moving out is that I now have a blank wall, so I can just take my outfit pictures in front of the wall!
I also don't have to depend on anyone to take my pictures. I would love to take more pictures outside, but it's kind of weird putting your camera on timer and running back and forth in the middle of the street to try and get a good picture!
I'm working on it though!


I got this skirt quite a while ago but I didn't wear it often.
I fell in love with it after seeing 1950's footage of a model wearing thesame skirt with thesame detailing (just in another colour).
 I think the colour is a little bit tricky, so I just paired it with a black shirt. My ballet flats are a little bit more colourful - they have flowers on them in all sorts of colours.
I also have a few flowers in my hair- as always!

Thanks for reading!

OOTD: First day of school ♥

Hi!
I'm back with another outfit of the day!
This is the outfit that I wore to my school on the very first day of this year! I was doubting a little, but I love this outfit.
Sometimes I'm a bit scared to wear my pin-up outfits to school because of annoying, nasty people who can't do anything else but put people down. Luckely, nobody said a thing! I also got a lot of positive comments on it!
I didn't see that coming but I'm really happy the people in college aren't as judgemental as people in high school.


 

My skirt is by Hell Bunny. Shoes and T-shirt are by H&M, as well as the flowers and the hair bun! 

What do you think?
Have a good day!

- Love,
Mamie Monroe ♥

OOTD: Purple flowers

Hello! 
It's been a while, but I'm back with an outfit of the day! 
This one was taken a little while back to be quite honest, but I thought I'd put it up anyway, I LOVE this dress!
My hair flowers are by H&M!

 

Thanks for reading!

Claire's hair tools!

Hello sweeties! 
Today I have a very important thing to talk to you about: the Claire's hair tools! 

When the big donut bun became a thing, I got really obsessed and I got a lot of donuts from Claire's, but recently I saw that they have other hair tools as well! 

I got this vintage roll at Claire's at well and I'm absolutely in love with it! It makes this hairstyle (that I have been struggling with for quite a while) so easy and perfect! They do have more hair tools for other vintage styles. I thought I should share it with you!


Have a lovely day!

OOTD: A pin-up girl wearing a pin-up girl!

Hello everyone!
How have you been? I didn't realize it's been so long since I last put something online!
Today I have outfit pictures! I took these pictures a couple of days before my 18th birthday, when I was helping my sister with balloons that she was putting up for a party!

I wore my favourite high waisted jeans by Berschka (that have ripped in the meantime) and I wore a T-shirt with a pin-up girl on it! Pretty cute, huh?
My shoes are by H&M!


Again, I'm really sorry for not being around as much as I should be!
Things will change around here!

See you soon!

- Love, Mamie Monroe

OOTD: A spring thing! ♥

Hello everyone! 
The weather has been crazy (in a good way), it's been so hot outside! 
I decided to start wearing my dresses again more often. 
Yesterday I went to visit one of my closest friends for his birthday and I went for my pin-up dress. This dress is from Topvintage (online site) and I just love it. It's bright and colourful, it just gives me a fresh feeling.

My hair is in a bun with three flowers in it, all by H&M. Two white ones and a pink one.

 

My lipstick is "Russian Red" by MAC and my make-up look was created using MAC products as well. You can see my tutorial here.


Thanks for reading! Have a lovely, sunny day!

I have a Facebook page!

Hi everyone!

I have some really interesting news for you! I made a Facebook page. Quite a lot of people ask me about my style and why I'm into vintage and the fifties, and I thought it would be a great way to build an interactive relationship with the people who read my blog!


Here are a couple of photo's that will be up on my blog, along with other pictures of course! 


Make sure to like my Facebook page (click on the words "Facebook page!) and stay tuned! Thank you!

Heartshaped lips! ♥

Hello everyone! How are you doing?
I have found a new (but healthy) obsession lately. Of course I love my pin-up clothes and my red lipsticks, but I've gone a step further. 

I saw a post on Tumblr of a girl with heart shaped lips (not as extreme as Lady Gaga or anything) and I loved it! So I tried it myself....
And now I'm addicted! 
Want to take a look at the pictures?


The lipstick that I used is "Russian Red" by MAC.

Do you like heart shaped lips?
- Stay safe, Mamie Monroe ♥
