Retro in Purple and Green

Who here loved the movie and musical Hairspray? That film was a classic and a reminder of how colorful and fabulous the fashion of ’60s was! Big hair, bright colors, and perfect coordination… it was amazing! I channeled the latter in this look with a wide shouldered kelly green cardigan over a purple and green gingham crop top. Nothing is more retro than a mini skirt, but I made this look a bit more modern by wearing a vinyl skirt. What are your thoughts on vinyl? When I first saw it, I thought the trend would fade quickly but it seems to be getting bigger and dare I say, better? I even picked up a red vinyl skirt and am eyeing a pair of vinyl pants that’s how much I’ve warmed up to it. Topping off this look is a pair of white sunglasses. I think it matched the era I was channeling quite well. Let me know what you think in the comments below!
