The fashion of the 60's was considered as bipolar:
In the beginning it was very conservative like the 50's and in the end it was the complete opposite. Bright colors, tie-dye t-shirts, long hair and beards and women showing more skin than ever before!
Among so many changes in all the years of that decade, some characteristics were so marked that we still admire them today. That's why we created this post, to show you several incredible tips for you to improve your look with a magical touch of the 60's!

Po
I could doubt that you don't own any clothes with polka dots or know someone who doesn't! O dot it's a trend from the 60s that is very present in current fashion as well. And no wonder, these balls are really a charm!
Stripes
As stripes are very common nowadays too, since they are very basic and many people like to use them following the rule that horizontal lines make you fat and vertical lines lengthen the silhouette (although I think that each one should use what he likes without worrying about any rule).
Checkered
Both checkered when the geometric shapes were very visible in the 60s and nowadays they give a very elegant touch to the look!
Flared skirt
A flared skirt it's really cool when creating a vintage look, it's worth experimenting with other accessories and trends from the 60's! Try vibrant colors, white or black, floral prints and even the ones mentioned above (polka dots, stripes and squares).
