Taylor
Pixie
Swift
Lott
Taylor Swift is reknown for it’s girliness and innocence but she is constantly referencing the sixties by wearing mini shift dresses a lot!
Pixie’s style is experimental, but the one look that she always relys on is a mini dress.
Alexa
Chung
Michelle
Williams
Alexa’s style is the perfect harmony of chic classic and eccentricity. She isn’t afraid to trial new textures and styles, yet always looks confident in her style choices. Mary Jane shoes and a mini dress are her go-to outfit.
Michelle’s style is chic and classic but with retro twists and turns along the way. Her slick bob and patent boots are another nod towards the swinging sixties.

If there’s anything that fashion’s revived yen for all things seventies has taught us, it’s that a little of the decade’s laidback sartorial spirit goes a long way where good vibes are concerned. Case in point: a devil-may-care array of patches to add personality to your standard blue jean jacket. While you could trawl the stands at your nearest flea market for deadstock finds, we’d humbly suggest looking no further than your Instagram feed. Far from the patch’s novelty origins, a new generation of creators are whipping up designs that are works of art in their own right. Need further convincing of the trend’s 21st-century relevance? These pieces are right in step with the catwalks’ eclectic mood: At Gucci, maestro of mishmash Alessandro Michele kitted out one of Resort’s corduroy jackets with various bees and badges, and in Loewe’s latest menswear offering, Jonathan Anderson and co. stitched rocket ships to shirts, bags, and trousers. Most opulently, Hedi Slimane riffed on the DIY ethos of patches with a men’s bomber, fairly encrusted with dozens upon dozens of them.

Since Vivienne Westwood’s iconic God Save The Queen top we have been in love with the slogan tee. In terms of fashion, there’s little we find more satisfying than wearing a white cotton T-shirt with bold black typography on it. Essentially, it’s lazy dressing. OK, so you’ve put a t-shirt on but instead of adding a chunky necklace as you would with a plain tee, there’s no need as the words are the accessories. See, there’s already much less effort required. Not only that, the words can help us feel better on a bad day, and let people know our frame of mind without us having to open our mouths, which, as we’re sure you’ll agree, can be pretty useful sometimes.
