Last night I was invited by
Lady Carolyn to dress in one of my favorite decades of fashion, the 1960s, to appear with a couple other gals as a visual aid in one of Lady C's presentations on vintage fashion. I teased my hair, drew on my giant winged eyeliner, and donned the dress of a Modern.

Thank you, England, for Twiggy and the 60s mod look. <3 |
I have never dressed in Mod fashion before. My flavor of '60s leans towards Dior and Jackie O, but I have an appreciation for the broad array of styles and subcultures of this decade. Each of them had their best looks, and their worst.

Another dancing Monkee |
Despite it not really being my bag, baby, I *loved* wearing this vintage go-go dress, made of stretchy polyester, and cut surprisingly modestly. The boots are reproductions and were a trip to wear, being all plastic and tight and non-breathable, but they really made the outfit iconic.
