Why Many Would Love This Accurate 50's Video

This TikTok video has an accurate representation on fashion and makeup looks from the era of the 1950's. These clips show a woman dressing in clothing from what children, teenagers, young adults, adults, and grandmother's would wear during the 50's. 

She first shows her audience the looks of what girls in high school would wear mostly consisting of dresses and skirts. How different ages dressed and their swimwear as well during this time period. 

How grandmothers and adults dress in longer dresses and skirts than the younger ages during this era but consists of great colors that catch your eye. Then covers popular makeup brands that were advertised and what the style of makeup looks were like in this generation.

You can't help but notice the woman in these also resembles the big smile the models have in the magazines shown.

What makes these clips entertaining is her confidence and gives off huge positive vibes. It seems as if she really enjoys wearing 1950's clothing and makeup. She brings life and joy in these outfits. 

Some may say she's a Marilyn Monroe look a like or someone who just enjoys the full character of being a person back in the 50's, either way she looks great! 

During this six minute video, it is cool to see how the face power was made by mixing colors to get it to match your skin tone. An it was shocking to find out that they used hair extensions in this time period but at the time it was called "hair flashes."

These video snippets contain lots of good knowledge to those who are unsure of what people wore in this generation and for many who are just generally curious as well.

Males would wear a leather or denim jackets, white or patter button up top underneath, blue or light jeans, either a quiff hair or leave it natural with some gel in it.  I think of the outfits that Johnny Depp would wear in his Crybaby movie with his slicked back hair, leather jacket, and a rebellious but hot vibe.  Today we label these type of people as bad boys but back in the 1950's they were called the greasers and apart of the greaser subculture.  Looking back at these photos you never saw older men wearing this style, it was mostly teenagers and young adults.  Those who dressed this way were definitely very popular in high school. Let's also not forget they added a cigarettes to compliment the look. If any o...

Black Colored 50’s Accessories for fifters

This a unique box of items that were worn in the 1950’s! I notice there is a pair of glasses and sunglasses. Along with three pairs of polka dot earrings and a silk scarf as well. At the left corner there is a black and white printed headband and a pair of gloves too. There is a total of eight items in this accessory box. My grandmother used to have many of these style of gloves in her closet. When she would show them to me as a child, she would smile so bright and tell me stories of how she got them.
