That 70's Style

{ Via }

Today is the 50th Anniversary of Woodstock. How groovy is that? I am probably giving away my age, but I so wanted to be there. Though I was a bit too young to drive across country, I was feeling the hippie chic vibes. It was a time of political unrest and self exploration, not to mention fashion that went against the norm. I wore flowers my hair, headbands across the forehead, and fabulous fringe. This post celebrates that 70's style, and features fashion looks that are still on trend today.

Embroidered Maxi
"The fitted empire waist and deep V-neckline of this caftan-inspired maxi dress are beautifully enhanced by ornate embroidery." This maxi has an ethereal feel about it, not to mention the fab flower power of the seventies.

Cleobella Tote
Remember macrame? It's back along with all things crocheted. The lovely lavender is also a trend for Fall. This bag plays pretty with the dress above, and is perfect for warm September days.

Summer Trend: Off The Shoulder

Tuesday Trend: The New Bohemian

Some are calling this Summer, "The Summer Of Love." Designers have channeled the seventies again, and were in a Bohemian mood when designing this season's romantic styles.  They have a free spirit with lots of movement, pretty prints, feminine florals, peek a boo shoulders, flared or wide legs and uneven hems.  I found a few things that I love. What about you?

Concert Chic: 15 Fab Festival Finds

Chicago is bracing for Lollapalooza, which celebrates its 10th year in Chicago's Grant Park from August 1st - 3rd. It's one of the country's largest festivals with Outcast, Lorde, and The Kings Of Leon heading the line up. It's not only a chance to listen to some good pop, hip-hop and Indie music, it has become a place to see and be seen.  Why not look your best?  Almost anything goes - except stilettos and maybe a Lilly Pulitzer palm print.   Rocker or Boho chic is really the way to go. It's so much fun to assemble. Just think fringe, flowers and fab fedoras.
