It's the height of Summer, so instead of getting distracted by the transition pieces hitting stores right now for Autumn/Winter, focus on this beautiful weather we've been having in the UK. Keep your look light, fun, and flirty! For just another six weeks, you'll be able to embrace resortwear as daywear and strut around the country, city, or beach in sandals and sundresses. Here are a few of my favourite fashion and beauty items for August!
Fearne Cotton looks adorable walking around London with her cropped blond bob and a tartan cape; however, what I most love about her style is the way she's wearing a chic pair of 50s style sunglasses. The colour and shape complement her hair and bone structure and somehow look more modern than retro. I've also spotted January Jones in a pair of sheer topaz glasses and think they look equally stylish on her. Browse these '50s-style sunnies below, and let me know if you're into this trend.
The 1950s were an enormously influential decade for American style. Post-WWII, the US was rebuilding its economy and moving (haltingly and often painfully) towards social change. The dynamism and simultaneous retreat to more conservative times are both apparent in the era's styles, which veer wildly from rockabilly hair to pixie cuts and primly waved bobs. It was a time of great change and style to match, so check out some of the decade's most prominent highlights.
