Your pin-up look isn’t complete without a classic 40’s inspired manicure. Deep reds, and half moons are the name of the game. Check out this easy-to-follow manicure photo tutorial to complete your look.

Step 1) Purchase binder paper hole reinforcements such as: Avery Hole Reinforcements

Can be purchased online at eBay for $2.84 with FREE shipping by clicking HERE

Or at your local office supply store

Step 2) Paint your nails any base color. Our favorites: gold, white, silver, black

Allow nails to fully dry before proceeding to next step!

(Neat trick to speed up drying process: run painted nails under cold water)

Step 3) Place the Hole Reinforcement stickers over base of nails

Step 4) Paint secondary color over the top of the sticker & top half of your nails. Our favorite secondary colors: red, navy, white, gold, black, pink

Allow nails to fully dry!

Step 5) Remove stickers slowly, apply clear coat, & enjoy your beautiful half moon vintage manicure!

Vintage Clothing Was Made to Last. Unlike the mass-produced garments sold in today’s big box stores, vintage clothing was made to last longer than simply a few wears. Pink Bow City has vintage inspired items handmade by our designers, they can even be specified to your measurements and color choice! Click here to browse our favorite.
The Thrill of the Hunt: Nothing is more thrilling to vintage and thrift lovers than the hunt itself. Finding a garment that fits perfectly to your body and your unique style is priceless.
We Can’t Get Enough of the History! We love the classic feminine look across the 30s, 40s, and 50s, but perhaps even more intriguing is the meaning behind each look, from the style itself right down to the materials used.
Vintage and Vintage-Inspired Looks are Eco-Friendly and Oh-So-Chic! Hunting for vintage items means we’re making a choice to give previously used items a new home and Pink Bow City’s designers create handmade items, right here in the USA or Europe – so you can rest assured your clothing was created in an ethical environment.
Up-cycling is Fun! We love finding unique one-of-a-kind items and adding our own personal flair! Whether you’re pairing your favorite classic vintage pencil skirt with a more modern tank and cardigan, or wearing a vintage-inspired blouse with a pair of jeans- the possibilities are endless and always hint at a sense of timelessness.
Pin-up is Pretty! We love vintage, and to many of us pin-up is a celebration of classic femininity and above all, strength. Pin-up is one of our ABSOLUTE favorite styles throughout history <3

There you have it. Six really good reasons why we love vintage and vintage-inspired looks!
