ALL IN THE DETAILS: Repeat the Past

Fashion has always been something that is constantly changing. One year, fringe is everywhere! Then another year, people are starting to put feathers in their hair. Year after year, decade to decade, fashion can be seen as progressing, changing, and adapting to the new standings of society. With the constant ebb and flow of trends and what is considered cool in the style world, how is anyone supposed to keep up? Well, don’t overthink it because you do not always have to be wearing the current trends. It is perfectly okay and even encouraged to look back to the past for fun styles that may not be taking over the fashion industry at the moment.

This Fashionista pulls off this idea effortlessly by incorporating trends from the past into her outfit. The decade her outfit pulls from is the 1970s, but this look is truly timeless. It is simple details like the neutral colored tie dye T-shirt, dark wash flared jeans, and pointed toe boots that create a simplistic, hip version of a classic ’70s-inspired look. This look is tied together with the cool, dark colors and a clean finish which connects to the theme of pulling from past trends.

It is so interesting to look back in time to see what styles used to be all the rage, and how to make them your own and work in today’s fashion world. Thrift stores are a super fun and affordable way to shop for vintage pieces. This Fashionista even scored her T-shirt from searching through the racks while thrifting. Keeping this style tip in mind: shake up your style norms and connect yourself to retro fashion.
