First rule of thumb - Never do too much vintage. You want to keep it updated and modern while also mixing in a few vintage peices! So if you had a nice vintage scarf, try pairing that with a modern jean jacket and so cute colored jeans. DO NOT pair it with vintage bell bottoms and a shirt from the 60's. It's hard to do, but you have to try and mix the two perfectly!
2nd Rule - There is a difference between a product made to look vintage, and a shirt from who knows when that in no way imaginable can be made cute! Don't try and bring really old peices back to life, most likely, they won't make the best outfit. Try using a shirt from 20 years ago instead of a shirt from 50 years ago!
3rd Rule - Use current trends along with the vintage piece. If you have a vintage locket, pair it with a peplum! This creates a vintage vibe while still staying in 2013 with the rest of us!
Hope you take my advice and dig out some shirts to mix and math with current clothes!
