Going Through the Era's // Fashionable Friday {1960s}

What I'm Wearing: Vintage Modern Jr. Gale & Gale Cocktail Dress {'66 - '69?} hand-me-down // Earrings LC Lauren Conrad for Kohls // Sunglasses Kohls // Black Pumps Famous Footwear

I love this dress. I just need a cocktail party, 1960s themed party, or a costume party to attended so I can wear this dress. *grin* 

Since this dress is a juniors dress, and judging by the shorter length {though it could just because of my height} Gaby and I think this dress is from around 1966 to 1969. Does anyone have any ideas if this sounds right at all?

For this outfit I tried doing a '60s poof in my hair. But it didn't really turn out right with just using a curling iron, teasing, and hairspray. As my hair needs more lift on top {which could be achieved with some velcro rollers}.

  4. I love this look! How cool that you own a vintage dress. My mom and I were given a 1950's party dress, but none of us have found a place to wear it to.

  10. Oh.my.gracious. Ashley Nicole, that dress is beautiful with a capital B!!! I LOVE it. (And you look so lovely too!) Would you know that just this week a dress that I bought on Etsy came in the mail, and it fits right in with yours! Abiah wants to take a picture of me in it, so I can send it to you. Together we look like we belong at a 60s cocktail party. *grin* Maybe we need to host a 60's-ish party one day as a good excuse to wear our awesome dresses. *smile*
    Oh, and I love your hair too. I think early next week I'll try a style similar to that.
    Fabulous darling!
    lots of love~ Kay xox

  11. @Achaia Aw, thanks dearie! Eeep! I can't wait to see your dress, Kay! You must send pictures, as I want to see your dress. We should host a 60's-ish party one day. As that would be absolutely marvelous!

    If you do try this style on your hair, and it turns out, I want to see pictures.

    love,
