70s Revival with Yours Clothing.

Black Kimono, Tassel Bag and Tile Print Tunic: all c/o Yours Clothing. Hair Chain: New Look. Shoes: Matalan.

I'm sure you've all seen the massive 70s revival that is circulating at the moment and I'm so happy that some plus size companies have taken it on board and have given the trend option to girls like me as well! One of my favourites being Yours Clothing who were lovely enough to offer me the chance to style up some of their pieces. This trend is something I'd normally lust from afar as the 70s isn't really an era I take inspiration from for my day to day wear as I'm a 1950s girl at heart but I'm so happy I have for this as I'm loving it! 

I've accidentally gone a little gothy for these photos but I quite like it! I picked up this hair chain up a few weeks ago as I've been dying to try one but I just wasn't sure I'd be able to pull one off (and I'm still a little undecided!) however I do feel it works really well with the rest of the look, maybe I'm just far to used to my full fringe! I felt with this I didn't need any other accessories such as jewellery but the lovely tassel bag was the perfect finishing touch! I adore these garments and I didn't think I really suited kimono's but this one I've fallen head over heels for and can't wait to wear it over other dresses come the summer. The dress is also extremely comfortable and is a subtle nod to the 70s trend without being overly in your face like hardcore flares would be! For reference I sized up in the tunic to a UK22 as I do with all things this shape just to give a looser look so it doesn't cling to my tummy. For the Kimono I'm wearing a dual size 20/22 and feel this is true to size and would fit either really well!

Five Decades of Fashion.

Leave a Comment

This is Simply Be's Five Decades of Fashion showing you what was leading fashion in the nineteen sixties and what is in our wardrobes now and even what we could be wearing in the future! It shows the clothing crazes people (primarily my mum) would like to be forgotten and definitive styles that changed our wardrobes and lives forever!

I have to admit being an avid vintage girl myself I utterly love this and find it so interesting.Though considering I wasn't born until the end of this step back through time (1993 in case you were wondering) I can't say I regret any of the styles as I wore whatever my mum shoved me in. I think the only trend the majority of people should regret is the dreaded shell suit and I know my mum was a fan in the eighties! You can check out the full piece here I had a lovely code so it would come up on my site but it won't work, sorry!
