#ThrowbackThursday: Solange Slays the 60's

Solange is a personal style inspiration for me. I've written about her before, using her as an example of proper pattern mixing. Fearless in her choices, bold in her ensembles, yet Classic in her methods, Solange embodies the style aesthetic that I personally work toward achieving. 

Solange draws upon past decades for her own style inspiration. She selects vintage and combines it with contemporary to create simultaneously fresh, classic, and always unique style. 

Let me show you what I mean:

'60s Style Beauty

A pretty lip and major liner epitomizes 60's mod beauty.

Yellow and White Floral

Mellow yellow gets a sophisticated boost with this lady like dress. 

Dots and Stripes

Pattern mixing isn't a new trend by any means, but has been conquered with modern style in this look. 

High Waist Shorts

Waist deep never looked so good with the simplicity of the black shorts combined with the vibrancy of the top. 

The Mini Dress

This mini dress look could pass as vintage, but gets a modern upgrade with animal print. 

High Waist Bikini

A classic swimsuit gets today's treatment  with trippy colors and box braids.

Stripes

Simple stripes get a punched up look when tailored into a great dress. 

The Maxi Dress

Lovely patterns on long dresses? Groovy baby.

Polka Dots

Polka dotted to perfection in this large dot printed mini dress. 

See what I'm saying!

With a few modern tweaks and vintage flair, Solange simply slays the '60s. 

The great thing about all of these looks is that you can find similar pieces to create your own modern 60's flair. Be fearless and have fun with your fashion. You never know what inspiring looks you will create.
