Sheer is the material of the moment, with designers showing it off as the must have in any autumn and winter wardrobe. Wearing a sheer blouse can often feel like a fashion risk but the key to wearing it is to cover up without covering up at all!
This means strategic layering, mixing prim and proper decades for example the lady like vintage styles of the 40s with the contrasting alluring appeal of the sheer, and boyfriend blazers. Remember sheer can be daring and sexy as long as you get the balance right you will be spot on this season.

Hello Everyone!
Have you ever thought about experimenting with a vintage hairstyle to compliment your Darling vintage clothing?
We adore vintage hairstyles and today we want to discuss one of our vintage hairstyle choices as we will be doing over the next few weeks, starting today with the finger wave!
Now we have seen many contemporary stars attempt a version of the 20s style from Charlize Theron to Halle Berry.

The finger wave hairstyle first made an appearance in the 1920s as a softened version of the severe bob that often accompanied the iconic flapper style. The style gained popularity through usual means that are no different from today; Hollywood stars would wear the style and effectively contributed to the popularity and evolution of the hairstyle.
Which look would you go for? We have matched each look to one of our dresses, click to find out which one!
