“NEW” TRUE VINTAGE SUMMER SUNDRESS FROM THE 1960’S!
TRUE VINTAGE 1960’S TWO-TONE OXFORDS BY JOHANSEN – THEY’RE “IN” AGAIN . . . . .
ORIGINAL 1970’s DR. SCHOLL’S EXERCISE SANDALS – IN RED!
TRUE VINTAGE MID-SIXTIES MOD GRAPHIC CLASSIC DESIGN SLEEVELESS DRESS
Simple, slightly-fitted day-dress – casual or business-ready. You choose. Any style this classic and well-made can stand on its own in a variety of settings.
I have seen a lot of this color combo from the mid-1960’s and it always looks smashing with brown or black leather accessories. Bone will do nicely, too.
Jackie-O or classic Ray-Ban shades and a chunky coordinated necklace or scarf and there you go. Too cliche’? Cinch the waist and go Fifties, wear it with thigh-high boots and a biker jacket or, if you must, throw it over a pair of black leggings. Looks nicer on Madge, but she wasn’t with me when I took the photo.
When it comes to fashion, I tend to be a purist but when it comes to disguise . . . . . . . . . .

A FUN SOUVENIR SWEATER FROM LAS VEGAS – 1960’S – 1970’S.
A FUN TRUE VINTAGE SOUVENIR SWEATER FROM 1960’S LAS VEGAS
Someone was tempted to remember their mid-century trip-of-a-lifetime to Las Vegas with a splashy embroidered sweater, before the time of T-shirts being worn every day and taking over as souvenirs of our vacations. Same idea, different era. What happened in Vegas didn’t always stay there.
The most fun fashions have usually fallen somewhere along the spectrum of bad taste, and this one is no exception – how could you not love it?! Like almost all souvenir items, it’s not of exceptional quality – but it still has lasted 50 years in good condition. You won’t find anything exactly like it now.
Knit of acrylic yarn, for purely casual wear – our adventurous gambler maybe wore it to her weekly card games or just to advertise her trip to an “exotic” destination. Going to Vegas used to be a much bigger deal than it is today. After all, it was Mafia territory, full of high rollers and shady ladies. Some things never change . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
