Obsessions of the Week

Most people obsess over maybe one or two items on average a week, but it's hard for me to choose seventeen items I can't like without. And no, that's not my introduction at shopaholic's a anonymous meeting. Anyhow, this week is all about retro-chic for me. Cat eye classes, hair ribbons, pointy-toed flats, geometric patterns -- it's almost like a flashback to the mid 1900s, and I can't get enough. Maybe I should add a timeline onto the list too, huh? It's not just me, people and brands everywhere are very keyed into the past. Much like history, fashion also repeats itself so prepare for the style of the fifties and sixties to return. Yippee, I love those eras of culture. Retro style mixed with modern decor and accessories is a "happy medium" that's becoming very chic. Having pieces from multiple eras in fashion will not only make you look great, but you'll be a well-rounded fashionista.

Of course clothing is important, but it's every aspect of the outfit that ties it together. One piece may reflect fashion of the past and another may be off of a runway from last fall's fashion week, but it's how it's worn. Not what is worn. Create your own obsessions of the week made up of clothes, shoes, accessories, interior decorations and makeup. Start with categories, narrow them down to actual items and then pair them together for perfection. You're all capable if you take my advice!

Go back in time with fashion.
