Having a few vintage treasures in your wardrobe is going to individualise your outfits and make them look more special. So if most of your wardrobe comes from middle range high street shops like Topshop, adding a few vintage items will make u stand out from the crowd.
A tip for vintage shopping - know what u are looking for. For example... I would like a vintage thin knit jumper. That's a broad enough description to find one, but if you go in to a vintage store thinking I just want vintage, without thinking about what u might like, there is no doubt that you will buy an item that is a bit crazy, that u are never going to wear, because it fits with nothing you already have.
Vintage shopping can also work out cheaper than high street shopping too.... So if u see a colourful scarf in Zara for 30GBP why not take a look in a vintage store (or eBay works well too), it will probably be cheaper and will definitely be different from anything else anyone else is wearing... Making your look interesting.
Some of my friends wear head to toe vintage.... And look amazing, but this is not for everyone so I am not advocating this. I am just saying add a few pieces to jazz up your look :)
