Pollyana Shoulder Bag by Lulu Guinness

Lulu guinness

Lulu Guinness has a great eye for accessories and always applies just the right amount of kitsch. This Pollyana Shoulder Bag has a fifties pin-up vibe as its inspiration, but remains subtle and versatile enough to wear with everything.

This red patent leather provides that 50s kitschy sex appeal along with the bubbly shape. The contrasting black clip frame adds some old fashioned magic too. It's also lined with a striking printed fabric.

It's available online from My Wardrobe for £275.

Fred Perry Bateau Neck Dress

Bateau dress

Fred Perry's designs have gone far beyond the classic tennis wear and polo shirts we all know so well, especially with their latest womens collections. With a strong retro feel to each piece, this Bateau Neck Dress is a perfect example of the flair seen throughout.

This dress takes a whimsical sixties vibe and applies it to a casual jersey dress. The detachable contrast coloured neck and red buttons add a mid sixties vibe that's irresistably mod inspired, while a classic A-line mini dress provides the perfect canvas.

Deep V Long Dress by Adam

Deep v

Smock style dresses have recently become something of a swear word and even a seventies cliché. That shouldn't stop those dresses who do the style well being covetable though, like this Deep V Long Dress by New York brand Adam.

The maxi version of a classic smock shape is made in silk, allowing it to create shape rather than swamping the body. In a great Ossie Clark style print, it ties in a late sixties and early seventies chic with a showing of flesh with 3/4 length sleeves and a deep v neck.

Lights Coat by French Connection

Lights coat

Statement colours in outerwear are often something shied away from, but when the shade is a gorgeous vintage yellow it's hard to resist. This Lights Coat by French Connection is given an air of sixties style thanks to the shade and the shape.

The oversized structure of the coat gives a unique look, taking a classic mens overcoat style and feminising it in an ode to the mid sixties. Three quarter length sleeves and a thigh skimming hemline save this from swamping the body, while retaining that boyish retro chic.

Get it new in at French Connection UK for £175.

Morgan mini dress by Julie Brown

Minidress

Combining all your favourite element of any 60s fashion in one outfit can be something of a minefield in modern fashion, but this Morgan Dress by Julie Brown does a great job of tying together some of the best.

Starting with a plain, yet daringly short mini dress, the long sleeves, high neckline and chic A-line shape counterbalance the high hemline perfectly. A bold print is used throughout, but kept from being costumey by the use of another mid sixties favourite, monochrome colouring. The elements combine perfectly to make an easy to wear and stylish retro ode.

Get yours online from Bluefly for $185 or $166.50 if you buy today.
