Spring Summer Fashion Formula #8: A Modern Take on 1960s Style
May 21st, 2009
The 1960s were famous for bold graphic prints and bright colors. And while the optimistic mood of the 1960s isn’t necessarily present today, you can still derive inspiration from these more innocent times. Here’s how to modernize the graphic look of the 1960s:
1. Juxtapose bright color and a statement making pattern: a bright royal blue tank and a black and white skirt with a bold polka dot pattern.
2. Add another layer of graphic pattern with a short sleeved jacket in an oversized buffalo plaid.
3. Finish off the look with complementary accessories: a sunny yellow pair of heels (to complement the blue tank) and a grey zipper-adorned handbag (that works with the black and white patterned pieces).

That is a great outfit! I don’t think I would’ve thought to wear that jacket and skirt together, but it looks cute. I don’t wear a lot of large graphic prints, but this makes me want to try.

Glad you guys liked the outfit! I know that jacket looks like it can be difficult to wear at first, but it’s much more versatile than you’d think
