Looking for 1920s makeup inspiration? Look no further! A classic 1920s makeup look is one of the loveliest choices for a big day (THE big day, even), a night out on the town, or any party or event.

Take a look at some of our old favorites (and yes there are some 1930s-ish looks in here as well), and we’ve sprinkled in some new finds for classic vintage and 1920s makeup inspiration!

Interestingly scored, interestingly cast… there will certainly be lots to look at, style-wise. The Great Gatsby is a perennial favorite for vintage-wedding inspiration, and there is certainly a lot …
Out and about recently I saw a girl with the most amazing art deco manicure, and I immediately realized: of course, NAILS needed to be a post! Can’t believe we haven’t done it already, though we’ve had some posts featuring 1920s Makeup… but check these out: If you’re planning your wedding, you’ve probably already thought …
