Retro Style!

Retro fashion is a clothing style which consists in wearing clothes commonly used in the past. This way of clothing often includes garments and accessories that are characteristic of such times, and many people use them in an exaggerated way and in combination with current clothing. 

Examples are: leather handbags from the 50s, "bell-bottom jeans", big sunglasses,fedorasfunky jackets and shoes, small neckties, chiffon scarves, sport equipment, skinny jeans etc. Makeup may also play a part in feminine retro fashions, with focal points being heavily-lined eyes and bright red lipstick; hairstyles such as pompadours, ponytails, and ducktails may be adopted, as well as styles that model film stars of the 1940s and '50s.

I found this retro look which I find very elegant yet stylish and is suitable for Spring/Summer season.

Hope you like these 2 looks I have picked, I will create similar looks and post them soon!
