70's Retro




Hat, TK Max
Jumper, Asos
Dress, Asda
Boots, River Island
Bag, Topshop

 
When I saw the Milan S/S 2011 D&G show I instantly loved it, the innocent, carefree, young collection had a hint of the 70’s and pretty floral prints.
I particularly loved the romantic floral maxi dresses with their light and floaty fabrics.
 Here I’m trying my best to create that similar look, although I’ve had to adapt my outfit for the weather, as it is definitely not summer yet!
I got this maxi from..... Asda, shocking I know. I loved the print and the colours (lilac/purple tones are a new trend) and for £16 you can’t really go wrong.  I’ve worn it with my floppy hat,( taking style tips from the Marc Jacobs show) which was a bargain find at TK Max.  
The disco ball necklace I’m wearing is my Nan’s from the 70’s, I’m loving her jewellery collection at the moment.
