More Retro Looks!

Yesterday's seventies post was so much fun; I have some additions!

At left, dreamy boho chic meets Balinese relaxation with this retro print Pucci top and shorts; Dolce & Gabbana sandals.

Couture Carrie is a big advocate of unique white frocks for summer, like this frilly number, made all the more alluring by the lounging pose, by D&G.

















Though shown in rather an unflattering combination (cropped pants and socks; chunky mismatched necklace), this throwback-check Marni dress could really be stunning if worn with bare, tanned legs and strappy metallic sandals. (Would that CC could afford to purchase this piece and take it from runway to real way!).

Badgley Mischka's khaki wave-print halter union suit is the ultimate in seventies sophistication. The banded waist and billowing chiffon make this look a bit more wearable than some of the other "jumpsuits" out there. Would you wear a romper or union suit?


Hello, Studio 54! This Tibi metallic top and high waist trouser combo just screams disco!
That seventies boho vibe is really captured in this sketch by Patrizia Pepe. Peasant top, patterned head wrap, printed a-line frock over slim pants, etc. Loving both looks!
