In case your mom threw away her teenage fashion choices, here’s what you’re looking for. Delicate creamy colors, light blue denim, loose long sleeves, lace and ruffles. Prints? Florals, obviously. Find a one shoulder chiffon dress or a girly ruffled playsuit. Put on high-waisted denim distressed cut-offs and match them with a long sleeve sheer blouse or a crochet top. Top it up with loads of accessories from feather necklaces to floppy hats. To avoid looking like you’ve been playing with a time machine add fresh looking platform shoes. Oh, and don’t forget about big sunglasses.
