Vintage Ads that make you wonder what Mad Men were thinking

Vintage ads are a window into the past. A sometimes horrifying window. Here is another round of vintage ads guaranteed to shock your senses.

Vintage ads are known for being offensive and misogynistic. Not to mention terrifying. These photos are definitely little gems of history that you’d never see advertised these days and for good reason!

If looking at these advertisements don’t make you scratch your head and wonder what the Mad Men of 1960’s were thinking – we don’t know what will! Here are 11 blasts from the past ads.

Her Gray Hair Cost Her Her Job!

Vintage Ads

Little did she know in 60 years she’s be considered in style. This vintage ad shows you never know what trends will make you popular.

Men Hate Skinny Women

 

Vintage Ads

 

You’re too skinny, too fat, not fat enough, too blonde, too made-up and too natural looking! That’s the plight of the everywoman. Somehow it’s comforting to know they’ve been dealing with it for literal centuries. Bottom line? Women these days would not have this problem with their men.

That’s What a Wife is For!

Vintage Ads

What else is a wife good for, really?

Santa and his Smokes

Vintage Ads

Who knew Santa was a smoker? Maybe that’s why he has such a husky voice! Apparently, the 1950s was the perfect branding opportunity for Santa to convince little kids to take up a debilitating smoking habit.

Smirnoff’s strange Vintage Ads

Vintage Ads

Let’s be honest. Sometimes this ad still applies.

The Walking Sauna

Vintage Ads

This sauna exercise suit is great for the girl on the go who wants to sweat all day. This “weight loss” gadget is supposed to increase your body heat, thereby allowing you to shed unwanted pounds while you do your wifely duties. Like laundry. One thing is for sure. At $6.95, this weird space suit is a steal!

Buff away that Double Chin

Vintage Ads

Want to shed some extra pounds? Forget healthy diets and exercising regularly. All you need is this chin-reducer and beautifier! This terrifying contraption is said to both prevent and efface double chins.

Blow Up Boobs

Vintage Ads

Is there anything to say? This vintage ad shows that you don’t need to go under the knife to get the chest you always dreamed of. All you have to do is blow!

Want a better option? Come check out our Rockabilly Bikinis instead!

Sugar Keeps Your Appetite Down

Vintage Ads

There is not enough time to describe what is wrong with this vintage ad, but here’s a quick attempt. Sugar contains no essential nutrients, is bad for your teeth, bad for your liver, can cause insulin resistance, and has fat-promoting effects. What’s more, the more you eat sugar the more you crave it.

Definitely a fan of nibbling on a cookie before lunch, however.

Girls Who Don’t Read

Vintage Ads

Agreed entirely.

Father and Son Underwear Party

Vintage Ads

This vintage ad features a father in son sharing a moment as they chat about their tightie-whities. Dad’s give him just the right sort of mild support, don’t ya know.

Rockabilly Rules for New Year’s Eve

Your time with 2016 is quickly drawing to a close! Learn how to have an unforgettable evening with these rockabilly rules for New Year’s Eve.

Rockabilly Rules for New Year’s Eve
Rockabilly Rules for New Year’s Eve

Has 2016 rocked your world? If so, you’re probably going to want to enter the New Year having fun, looking good, and packing back a couple drinks. Rather than scare you with New Year’s statistics on why you should be ‘boy-in-a-plastic-bubble- careful, we’d rather give you our 3 rockabilly rules for New Year’s Eve!

#1. Look Hot

The first rule to your rockabilly girl’s night out to celebrate the last of 2016 is to look hot. When you look good, you feel good. We’ve paired our favorite New Year’s rockabilly dress with some other pinup favorites to make sure your outfit is hot and chic for 2017!

The face

One of the main components of a hot look is your makeup. Glitter is the perfect look for any special occasion, including… parties! Check out this gorgeous gold glitter eye tutorial by Makeup with Jah

The rockabilly hair

Miss Rockabilly Ruby does the BEST vintage hairstyles. The tutorials are easy to follow and always give an authentic rockabilly hairstyle. This New Year’s look is fun and screams party. Check out the tutorial below.

#2. Have Fun

When you’re getting down for New Year’s, make sure it’s doing something you want to do. It doesn’t matter whether you head to a party with over 100 guests, go to an underground rockabilly rager, or spend the night with just you and your best friend. Just make sure it’s something you actually want to do, not something you feel like you should be doing. Play games, watch movies, binge Netflix, or go to a concert. Just have fun!

#3. Be Safe

By the end of the year, people are usually intent on celebrating. No matter what do you to end the year, be sure you do it safely. For example, champagne bottles should be opened carefully at a 45-degree angle with your hand on the cork.

  • Avoid text and drive.
  • Don’t play Pokémon Go and Drive!
  • Don’t do or say anything you wouldn’t do if you were sober.
  • Make sure you have a designated driver or safe ride home for the evening. Otherwise, make sure you have somewhere safe to crash!
  • Leave fireworks to the experts. Yeah, they’re fun and festive, but they can be dangerous too.
  • Bring Advil.

Another little tidbit? If possible, don’t bring a purse. Reduce your risk of getting anything stolen or drunkenly leaving your belongings somewhere. Instead of a purse, carry your belongings in your bra. Sounds sleazy, but it works!

There you have it, our 3 rockabilly rules for New Year’s Eve. Have fun, be safe, and look hot to ring in 2017.

This makes custom controllers are a great gift for any guy in your life. Xbox launched a Design Lab to customize your own controller, but be sure to put your order in soon since it’s usually waitlisted.

Boyfriend Gift GuideAccessories
If your guy likes to accessories then we have just the gift for you. Outfit him with some stocking stuffers of patches, motorcycle gloves, or rockabilly men’s wallets.

PS: Candy, baked goods, or chocolates are *always* welcome gifts, male or female.

Jewelry
Hey, what girl ever turned down a silver bracelet or diamond necklace? No one, that’s who. Find a local jewelry store that’s running a sale and you can pick your girlfriend up a beautiful piece of jewelry for $100 or less. Remember, you can’t go wrong with tasteful hearts or classic diamond earrings. Dont’ have the big bucks for diamonds? Go casual with fun and flirty costume jewelry, like our rockabilly earrings.

Makeup
Makeup, anyone? No rockabilly or pin up girl can be complete with a thick helping of mascara! Your local makeup store (think Sephora or Ulta) is going to be your new best friend when shopping for your girlfriend. If you don’t know specifically what type of makeup she uses, stay away from foundations and concealers. Instead stick to sexy hot red lipstick, black eyeliners, face masks, and holiday bundles. These are safe bets that are sure to get you a kiss of approval!

Rockabilly Bag

Every girl is going to love getting a cute new purse to carry around. Check out our rockabilly bowling bag complete with leopard print detailing around the zipper, rockabilly illustrations, and leather quilting up
the sides!

Rockabilly hairstyles might look like a long and complicated journey, but we promise even the laziest girl can style some luscious pinup locks in less than 10 minutes.

Common hairstyles from the 1920’s-60’s include short bobs, finger curls, and plenty of victory rolls. These hairstyles were all about flirtatious body, bold bangs, and gorgeous curls. Did we mention these looks can be accomplished in just a couple minutes?

This look is perfect for girls who want to add volume, texture, and rockabilly sex appeal to their short hair. Literally, all this style requires is a round brush, hairspray, hair gel, and a hair dryer. Hair, hair, everywhere!

For those rocking some Betty bangs, this hair tutorial shows off three different ways of styling your hair to show off your beautiful bangs. Products used in these looks include bobby pins, a teasing comb, round brush, curling wand, and hairspray! Looks can be completed in 10 minutes or less. How easy was that?

Twists, curls, teasing, and more! These are six fast and easy rockabilly hairstyles that can be done lightning fast! Remembering, pin curls don’t require heat, making them a great way to style over-processed hair without further damaging hair.
