Think back to Ginger and Mary Ann.

This list goes on. (And on.)
How can you not remember the absolutely hot 60s-style A-line shift dress?
It’s a little vintage, ever so slightly mod, but classically gorgeous – and it’s back!
A great example of a now-take on this retro look is the Milly Fabulous Obelisk A Line Shift Dress. It’s a very “uptown” look, and would look great with gold jewelry and upswept hair,  my fave part is the buckled self-belt at empire waist and slant pockets at hip.
Another reason I love this style: ANYONE can wear it! Whether you are 25 or 55, …read more

The last few days, I’ve been engaging in a voyeuristic form of retail therapy in order to feel better about my recently stress-tastic life.

Looks pretty cool! Must point out… the price …read more

I told you a few weeks ago that fall fashion for 2008 was going to be based on the sixties. With some of the items it was a stretch to see the connection, but not so with this jacket. It is sooooo sixties. Here’s another jacket that says it all.

I can just see Jean Shrimpton AND Twiggy sporty something like this as they wandered down Carnaby …read more

Now if this doesn’t say England in the Sixties… nothing will. At the moment, I’m not sure that I’m ready to return to that era (fashion wise) but it probably is because I still remember that time. I think that I was in my early teens when this was very popular and everyone wanted something that was coming out of Carnaby Street.
