- 1). Grow in the bangs. Today's version of the 70's bangs is straighter and less full than the original, and no longer makes the sweeping side curtain, but long, eyelash-tickling bangs are coming back into style.
- 2). Wear more dresses. The 60's and 70's rushed in the mini skirts and the flowing maxi dresses. Bold dresses that focus on fun prints, accessories such as wide belts and sashes, and enticing hemlines bring retro back to the forefront.
- 3). Have fun with color. Retro fashion is all about bright colors and dazzling prints. Yellow, fuscia, lime and tangerine were all used heavily in the 60's and 70's, often off-set by brilliant white or jet black.
- 4). Wear big jewelry. Retro fashion embraces thick bangles in a variety of colors, long necklaces and large hoop earrings. Don't be afraid to wear them in combination with each other.
- 5). Pull your knee-high boots out of the back of the closet - they're back in again. Soft suede boots with a thick, chunky heel are a perfect accompaniment to a short, straight mini dress.
