I'm really into sixties garb suddenly. It all started when I saw this lovely picture of Zooey Deschanel. Now don't get me wrong, I think she's adorable, but I usually don't find her personal style all that inspiring. Too twee and too all the way cute: nothing casual or scruffy about it. And I like my girly girls scruffy! But in this particular picture, she looked like a The Like bandmember <3
A strong sixties look, and yet this is a simple, comfortable outfit made of pieces most girls have in their closet: a striped top, some basic short shorts, black tights and a pair of cute flats. Seeing this picture ALMOST made me go and get my bangs cut on a whim, but bangs just aren't my thing :(
The sixties were basically the era when more casual wear became fashionable for women, which instantly upped their badass-appeal. You can't go picketing for peace in a corset, pencilskirt, garters and stilettos, now can ya? Short hemlines, loose cut silhouettes and flat shoes however: the perfect attire for girls and women about to rock the foundations of their nations (guess I'm totally into rhyme today). And I am that woman, so I love the sixties.
The Like breaking up makes me so sad :( I wish I was in an all girl rockband SO BAD but I can't play any instruments and my singing is only so so. Poo. But go check out their songs! Everything Mark Ronson touches turns into gold.
Nice shorts! Adorable!

the like are so darn cute! I have to admit their style was what convinced me to listen to their stuff - and then it was worth it. didn't know they broke up though.
ReplyDeleteThe 60s are soooo inspiring! Now I miss my bangs too..!
ReplyDeleteBy seeing these pics I want to wear some overknee socks again asap!
Just bought a very pretty striped jumper in sales so I'm definitely gonna try out that look of yours :)
PS: for one very sec I thought I saw Santa there... :D
Oh I love these 60s looks :D and your take on ZD's look is adorable :)
ReplyDeleteLovin' the outfit A! I think it looks even better than Zoeey's.
ReplyDeleteI've never heard of The Like, will have to check them out! :)
You look adorable! I really love the way you styled those sequined shorts. This is a perfect way to make them more casual. I'm loving the leopard flats you paired with everything too.
ReplyDeleteAhh super leuk! Staat je echt geweldig :D
ReplyDeletenaar mijn idee worden de 50's/60's nog redelijk goed vertegenwoordigd in de spring collecties, dus je kan je hart ophalen ;)
You're outfit is super hot! I love the sequined shorts with that tee. And it's comes from great inspiration :) Now are you sure you don't want to cut bangs? I think you'd look cute with them.
ReplyDeletehot stuff! Ge ziet er keigoed uit :) en I <3 de sixties style, echt prachtig!
ReplyDeleteah but you're a recent bangs convert, you're biased! :-D My face is just so TINY with bangs since I have loads of hair, and it really defines your look while a bang-less do is more... versatile?
ReplyDeleteAhh so bloody cute! And I love The Like photos too, I had no idea they'd broken up! Oops...Better get my ear to the ground more! x
ReplyDelete60's fashion era rocks! you look super lovely. brenton top goes so well with the beige beret. lush times

ReplyDeleteadorbs! you have gorgeous gams and should definitely rock the short shorts with the tights more often!
ReplyDeleteOh no, I didn't realize The Like broke up, I'm way behind on pop culture news. Their music and style is so amazing, I want to wear all of the outfits pictured! I like how you stepped outside your comfort zone with this outfit but still look smashing.

ReplyDeleteFavorite outfit of you!! I absolutely love this! And Zooey is amazing. Really like New Girl :)
ReplyDeleteYour loafers are amazing. And I love the Like, I didn't know they're breaking up?? Their music is so girly badass, damn it. The blonde member her short pixie hair is so lovely, I wish I could pull that off.
ReplyDeleteOooh such an amazing outfit! I love the sequuin shiorts! And there are these fab leo shoes again! Lovely! I like Zooey Deschanel too, she's so cute and has a great style!

Wauw, die derde foto! Very Parisienne... En Zooey Deschanel; now that's what I call a lady! Ze ziet er altijd goed uit, zonder een topmodel te zijn. I like!
