Inspiration Friday, Jamaica Blue 1975

I came across these amazing images from British Vogue at Clever Nettle, then found more of them here. I must say when it comes to looking for inspiration I always go to the 1940's and 1950's. I tend to forget about the 70's... Which is a terrible shame. After all the 70's did have a bit of a 40's and 50's thing going on! These pictures might have rekindled my passion for the 1970's. Oh yes, I think they have.


I'm in love with the dress on the left!



I hope you all have a wonderful weekend! My birthday is Sunday, so I'm looking forward to that! xo

    I am the same tend to stay clear of the 70s, but love the stripey bikini.

    I love these! The photo with the aqua and white stripes is amazing - I think that is how I want to look this summer. What I would do for a pair of striped sunglasses!

    I know what you mean about the 70s – they really do have that lovely vintage-y look to them :)

    It is Sunday here in Australia, so: Happy Birthday lovely lady! Have a WONDERFUL day :D xxx
