60s Mod Chic

Hey my dolls!  I wore this little number to work yesterday.  I picked up this frock for $15 at H&M while I was in FL and it screamed 60s mod to me.  So when I stumbled upon this vintage scarf in the same drawer as the shirt I found at my grandmother's (post here), I died because I knew I would wear it as a headband with the dress.  I wanted to temper the look a little bit to make it a tad more work friendly, so rather than heels (or my Michael Kors wedges, seen here)  I opted for my black Steve Madden oxfords.  I layered up three (!) Jewelmint necklaces, the Lovers' Locket, the Astoria necklace (short one) and the Pin Up necklace (ginormous safety pin).  I opted to forego earrings and stacked on a little arm party, featuring beauties from Target, Jewelmint, and my grandma.  As always, where would I be without my Nixon watch.  Sigh.  I really really need a nice Michael Kors watch.  Anyone want to donate one to a worthy cause? ;)



What do you think of this look?  I seriously love it.  It's my take on 60s mod, and I think I'll continue to wear this into the fall, layered over leggings with some boots.  And let's be real for a second, how amazing is the scarf?!

  1. I love the look too. That dress is so versatile. And the scarf is a perfect match. Wish we had H&M nearby. Or maybe not, because I would go broke.

  2. It's cute, but it's really not appropriate for work.

  4. Thanks guys!! It was on clearance, so I grabbed it! I love how well the scarf went with the colors and the vibe of the dress. Anon, I absolutely agree if it is a professional work environment. I work in a casual work environment, where we are allowed to wear shorts, etc (men too!). I try to maintain a nice put together vibe while letting my personality shine through! Thanks for taking the time to comment, it's very much appreciated :)

  6. Such a cute look! I love the mod look and you did a great job. Scarves are one of my favorite accessories to add to an outfit.

    I can definitely see this dress being remixed several ways :)
