Looking to plan the perfect Rockabilly Summer date? Here’s how!

Want to impress the pin up girl of your dreams? With a little help from Punkabilly, we’ll help you plan your perfect all-season Rockabilly Date.

Love is in the air! The best part about summer aside from the weather is the rockabilly date ideas and opportunities; events are abundant due to summer festivals and concerts, the weather is fashion-friendly for 50’s rockabilly clothing styles (nothing’s worse for your vintage pin curls and pin up makeup than rainy weather or constant snow… yuck!), not to mention you can pull off the perfect 1950’s date without breaking the bank!

So how do you plan the perfect Rockabilly date? If you’re looking to spice up your summer with your special someone then keep reading for these 4 simple date night ideas for your rockabilly sweetheart.

Old fashioned Diner

One milkshake, two straws, please! Old soda shop style burger joints are practically the birthplace of romantic dates (along with watching sunsets, walks on the beach, and all that jazz!)

One milkshake with two straws, please!

Get your gal in her best rockabilly swing dress and suit up in your favorite rockabilly greaser outfit to get the true “Grease” style vibe of your diner date. Grab a burger, use the jukebox, dance on the black and white tiled floor, and split a milkshake to recreate the most classically fun 1950’s date night possible.

The Drive In

What is better than a late night, summer drive-in date? Cuddle up close with your sweetie-pie at the drive in for an awesome movie and even better snacks! You can even amp up this idea by renting a projector and setting it up in your backyard for a night-time showing of your favorite classic film. This is vintage dating at its best!

Rockabilly Festivals

Summer festivals abound with unique music, Rockabilly flair, and the spirit of hippie-love. Festivals are a great date idea since you can bond over love of music, meet new people, and get excited about your favorite band. Did you know that one study by Stanford University found that music engages the same areas of the brain that are responsible for memory, attention, and the ability to make predictions? So not only will you be having a kick-ass time listening to your favorite bands with your sweetheart, you’ll also be exercising your brain! Look up the local Rockabilly fairs in your area for some amazing throwback music and suit up for a hot day date. Don’t forget the sunscreen!

Bring your gal to a classic car show. Many towns and cities put on local classic car shows, showcasing 57 Chevy’s, classic Cadillac’s, Buick Roadmasters, and the gorgeous Austin A40. Famously, the burger chain A&W puts on “Cruisin’ the Dub”, a classic car night that transports

you back in time. This date night is fun for both parties, as the guys can drool over the classic cars and marvel at the 1950’s prices (under $2000 for a brand new car!) while the girls are be taken in by the kitschy romance of it all. Have your girl dress up in her 1950’s finest (like our Black Skulls and Roses Rockabilly halter dress!) and grease back your hair before slipping on your best leather jacket for a truly unique date night!

When it comes to Rockabilly style dating – details are key! Whatever you choose for date-night, make sure you show your sweetheart a good time.

Some of those pinup movies present us lives and work of famous divas, while others abound with retro spirit and give us a ticket for a time travel.

This biography feature was released in 2005 and directed by Mary Harron. It is inspired by life and controversy of famous 50’s pinup model Bettie Page. Although some of the dialogues are authentic, it is not completely historically accurate and some of the movie events are fiction products, but regardless of that, it is still an exquisite motion picture. It brings out the essence of Bettie’s turbulent life and sketches the outlines of her style.

Earrings – Punk, Rockabilly and Retro Styles

Earrings can make all the difference in your rockabilly ensemble. Add some spice to your finished look with these rockabilly styles.

Simply defined, earrings are kind of decorative item for ears. Their name comes from their original and most common annular shape. Now, the more accurate definition of earrings is that they are often girl’s best friends and a determinant of the style. Not only women, but men also enjoy upgrading their image using these accessories. Through the history, the earrings have had many roles in traditional, social and fashion context. Today it can also be an interesting indicator of a person’s attitude, habits and style.

There are two basic kinds of earrings – the clip-on and piercing styles. Also, there are many subtypes of this jewelry. We differentiate them by their size, shape, pendants, materials etc. Also, for the piercing it is very important where are they settled. Traditionally, they are placed on the earlaps, but nowadays, it can be in any part of the lobe. Earrings have their special names based on their position: helix, industrial, rook, daith, tragus, snug, conch, anti-tragus and lobe.

The history of earrings is very long – they are among the oldest ways of decorating the body. There are many archaeological, and even one Biblical proof for that. They have had different roles in every culture and different meaning. It is known that men wearing earring isn’t a modern phenomenon. Even William Shakespeare, as well as many other important poets, had a pierced ear lobe. The African tribes also have interesting ways of piercing ears. Their ear decorations take an important place in tribal culture and beliefs. They often wear plugs and tunnels. Inspired by such accessories, we have created our own line of jewelry available here.

Punk Style and Rock Legend Fashion

Punk style has hit everywhere from underground rock legend’s to mainstream pop artists. Here’s what you can learn from the punk rock style.

Ever since it showed up, punk style was very specific when it comes to fashion. But despite many common style features, there are numerous differences between punk fashion lovers. Most famous punkers are an obvious proof for that. Some of them improvise and rely on their creativity, while the others do not even look like punkers. That’s the evidence that punk style emerges from an attitude, not from the fashion magazines. So, let’s get to know the style of the most popular punk musicians.

1. Johnny Rotten and Sid Vicious (Sex Pistols)
As the pioneers of this awesome music, they have also had a big influence in punk fashion. Their style was not less than shocking. They wear a lot of leather on many photos. Also, shredded jeans, mesh shirts, safety pins and a lot of chains – that’s what made their punk style so recognizable. Inspired by their metal accessories, we have prepared a fresh collection of wallet chains for you. Also, their hairstyles were pretty specific and crazy.

2. Patti Smith
This punk lady lets her songs talk about her style instead of her clothes. Her combinations often imply large shirts and thin neckties. Actually, her hair is her most rebellious punk style feature. Long and dark, with specific fringes. Also, she rarely wears makeup. Her overall appearance is absolutely bohemian and artistic. Even though she looks like she doesn’t pay a lot of attention to her image, she has managed to become a kind of punk fashion icon.

3. Ramones
This band had many members, but the change of the members has never changed the band’s image. Their style is actually a little bit different from the “regular” punk appearance and they look more like rock stars. Their specifically shaped black hair with fringes gives special charm to their not so specific clothing style, usually consisted of jeans and black leather jackets. As for the details, Ramones were mostly into the leather bracelets. You can check out something similar right here.

4. Avril Lavigne
Hardcore punk style lovers often deny Avril’s significance for the music, but when it comes to the spreading of punk clothing style among the youngest people, her contribution is undoubted. Her style can easiest be described as skate punk, but that’s not all. There are many features unique for her style, such as checked materials, long striped socks, skeletons printed everywhere, crazy colors in hair and, of course, the unusual neckties. You can find some awesome punk ties right on these pages.

Bracelets – History, Meaning, and Rockabilly Style

Being a true lady implies that you will always pay attention to every detail, with a special focus on jewelry. Therefore, bracelets are probably an important part of your everyday combinations.

The word “bracelet” is from French language and, literally translated, it means “arm ring”. Although it is mostly regarded as an ornament and fashion detail, bracelet is actually an important and interesting, history-rich item.

At first, bracelets were worn not only for aesthetic purposes, but for religious reasons as well. The oldest bracelet is worn in Southern Mesopotamia around 2500 BC, while it was also worn in Egypt around 2000 BC. However, newer studies show that bracelet could be worn in Egypt in 5000 BC! How amazing! Bracelet went through a personal evolution, changing its purpose, looks and materials. At first, it was made of bones, and later came the leather, cloth, wood, metal etc.

In different cultures, bracelets have different significance. In Greece and Bulgaria, for example, women wear special bracelets in order to please spring goddesses and make spring come sooner. In India, there’s something more than a belief related to the bracelets – it is considered that bracelets (as well as anklets) stimulate the acupressure points of the uterus.

Common Indian bracelets

Of course, bracelets can be a symbol of social status, made of silver, gold, or ornamented with some diamonds. But, they can also be an expression of creativity. Lately, homemade bracelets are very popular. You can make own creation form beads or polymer clay and have exactly what you want.

It should be pointed out that we differ several kinds of bracelets: charm bracelets, bangles, slap bracelets, beaded bracelets, link bracelets and sport bracelets. These would be the basic kinds.

Of course, punk and rockabilly culture makes everything cooler and our collection proves it. Rockabilly spirit comes strong in our high quality leather bracelets.

Ties: Rockabilly and Punk Styles

You don’t have to be sporting a tux to be decked out in a tie in the rockabilly world. Punk ties are all the rage, and it isn’t just men who are wearing them!

At first, they were strictly men’s accessory, but today ladies also wear them. Also, they used to be made only for special occasions, but diversity of models made them convenient for everyday happenings. Although sometimes it’s very complicated to tie a tie, it is very popular decorative fashion detail among the people who like to keep their style impressive and original.

The story of the tie is no older than four centuries. In 1635 it was worn by Croatian soldiers. At the beginning, it was just a scarf tied around the neck. Those soldiers were in the service of the French king, who was delighted with this unusual fashion bit. Actually, the whole Europe was soon very delighted with it. England saw its first tie when Charles II came back from exile. In the speed of light it has became an important style determinant.

Now, punk ties are adorable and attractive, but they can also be frustrating. Many people find tying the ties very complicated. Basically, it is not all that hard and it only takes practice and experience. There are several ways to tie a necktie and several kinds of the knots. When it comes to choosing the type of the knot, there are some rules. For example – when you have a shirt with a narrow collar, you should tie a narrowed knot, while wider collars require the so called Windsor knot. But the options are numerous and here are some of them:

Punk and rockabilly culture is also very open for awesome details like neckties. Punk ties have a special meaning. Beside the aesthetic effect, which is usually badass, there’s the social meaning. Since ties are often worn in offices and since they are a kind of symbol of uniformity, punk rock lovers actually wear them ironically. Punk, as the area of high creativity and originality, combines the craziest ties with all the possible clothing options. Punk girls often combine ties with awesome skirts like these or even with some swell and elegant dresses like the ones from this collection. All the fashion rules are now broken.

Pinup Makeup and Rockabilly styles

Beside the unique clothing style, rockabilly culture has its own pinup makeup rules which make it complete and recognizable. Prominent lipstick, emphasized eyes and adorable dolish look give this style a special note.

Pinup girls usually look like their makeup is done by the professionals, but it doesn’t necessarily mean that it is. When you know the basic rules, you can easily switch your previous makeup style to the glamorous rockabilly/pinup makeup. We have some practical tips for you to help you build up your vintage fashion getup.

1. First of all, you need to keep your skin healthy and implement the adequate care. Healthy skin is beautiful skin. Pinup makeup make you look like a living doll, so the pure skin is desirable. When you have good skin, it’s easy to choose the base makeup. Usually, retro looks imply the pale tan, but it’s not a norm. Choose whatever you think goes best with your natural tan.

healthy skin – beautiful skin

2. When your base is ready, you can put some blush. But be careful, because sometimes blush can look as exaggeration, especially when your eyes and lips have strong and prominent makeup. After all, as it’s mentioned, pin up mostly implies a pale tan.

3. Eyebrows are extremely important, since they really visually affect the shape of the face. Rockabilly girls prefer stronger and thicker eyebrows with natural line. You can always boost them with an eyebrow pencil. It’s important to use the color similar to your eyebrows color. Also, if you dye your hair, keep your eyebrow color matched with the hair color. Speaking of hair, you can always decorate it with a hair accessory, and we’re at your service with a splendid retro collection.

4. When it comes to eyes, pinup makeup comes to the fore. Vintage ladies use a couple of tricks to make eyes specially highlighted. First of all, you can put some light eye-shadow similar to the skin color. Apply it all over the eyelids, up to the eyebrows. You can make it darker right above the eyelashes. Then you can apply the eyeliner. Pencil eyeliner is probably the easiest and the fastest way. Put it along the eyelid and then lift it up aside and you’ll get something like cat eyes. Optionally, you can also use a black shadow and eye pencil. Black mascara can also give you a special effect.

5. Fiery-colored lips are the trademark of pin up makeup. No matter will you choose the flaming red, bright orange, maroon or other color, your lips will draw the most of attention. So, try to choose a high quality lipstick and choose it by your own aspirations. Also, avoid the glossy and take the matte lipsticks.

And your vintage pinup makeup is done!

Skirts through the time

Skirts are an essential to any rockabilly gal’s closet. The Little Black Skirt is nearly as popular as the Little Black Dress. We’re looking at rockabilly skirts and how to style them.

We live in era when fashion trends appear and disappear so often that we cannot even remember what was popular only few years ago. But before this hurried time, fashion had its long and slow changing history. And her majesty – the skirt – has an interesting place in all the fashion history sources.

Her majesty – The skirt

First of all, this wonderful fashion invention was unisex at first. Furthermore, men in ancient Rome were really big fans of skirts. Today, man skirts are called kilts are still present in Scotland.

Women were trapped in long skirts for a long time. It is interesting that men were wearing mini’s long before the women. Women had to wait for centuries to get this privilege. Up to then, they had different versions of long models. Sometimes the skirts were broad, with a complicated support construction underneath and bunch of underskirts. Such flamboyant styles were combined with uptight corsets. Seems unpractical, but it looks like it’s from a fairy tale.

Later on, the 60’s of the 20th century have brought us the hippie movement and colorful, long, swaying skirts with flower motives. Also, Marry Quant, the famous fashion designer, has made the first mini skirt ever in. Leslie Newson, also known as Twiggy, was the first model on the runway dressed in a mini.

As for the punk style, it sure adores the skirts. These skirts are provocative, not only by their length, but by their daring to combine different flows. They are often decorated with lace or metal details like chains or safety pins. Also, they often have some patches, like the ones from our collection. Tartan cloth is very popular in punk and when it comes to skirts, the rule is: the shorter – the better! Regular jean fabrics are widely used and they are usually torn up in some parts. Punk ladies love to combine their skirts with colorful tights or mesh stockings.

And rockabilly has its specialties when it comes to skirts, too. The famous animal print in different variations is present here as well. Motives like skulls and roses are also popular, equally as the lace details and checked fabrics. Nautical skirt models are inevitable, of course.
