Can you ever have enough minidresses? They’re a wardrobe classic I constantly return to and it looks as though I’ll be pining over yet another since I spotted this Crepe Dress from French Connection.
The perfect minidress shape, this lets the high neck and long sleeves take care of the demure edge while you show off plenty of leg. This one’s perfect for teaming with some white tights while the weather’s still chilly.
Perfect for dressing up or down, this one’s £70 from FCUK.
Okay, so it’s still January, but since when did that ever stop any stylish girl from donning a pair of oversized shades?
As iconic a part of any 60s wardrobe as Mary Quant and miniskirts, oversized sunglasses in every colour are simply irresistable. This pair from Dita Sunglasses are as close to perfection as they come, with a tortoiseshell frame and gradient lenses.
You can get them online from Shopbop for a decidedly designer price tag of $225, and check out many more styles from Dita.
Looking for a new hairstyle? Inspiration is at hand in the form of the History of Rock ‘n’ Roll Hair t-shirt.
Yes, everyone who was anyone (with hair) is here – from the Beatles to Bowie and the Ramones to Robert Smith, not to mention countless others you can enjoy picking out. Not enough big perms for my liking, but you can’t have everything.
Available on Etsy on a 100 per cent cotton t-shirt, it can be yours for $17.99 (around £9).

We could probably devote a whole section to products relating to the Beatles, there is so much of it out there. Sergeant Pepper merchandise is particularly over-exposed and we’ve all probably seen enough of it. But the t-shirt website Mr Cloud has breathed new life into it with their The Beatles Opie T-Shirt.
The Fab Four are pictured in the pop art style favoured by British artist Julian Opie, who is best known for his artwork for Blur’s Best Of album. The t-shirt is available in a range of sizes children’s and adult sizes and a wide selection of colours.
Priced £15.99, it can be bought online at Mr Cloud.
Straight out of a 1950s American diner comes this bubblegum pink Drive-In Dress from Stop Staring. Providing something a little off the beaten track from the many retro styles around, this is the perfect day dress for lovers of vintage inspiration.
The flower buttons and perfect pink shades make this dress look great down to the last detail. Perfect for teaming up with some big hair and an even bigger Cadillac.
Available from Mod Cloth, this one’s now in the sale at $110.99.
There are very few internet shopping sites I’m willing to bank on, but Oli.co.uk is one that’s never failed me in reliable service and a huge selection of clothes.
It’s not often a purveyor of vintage inspired fashions, but this Wool Miniskirt would make a fantastic addition to any retrospective wardrobe. Available in this great mustard, or a more versatile black with cream buttons, it’s available in their clearance sale from a bargain £20. I’ve just bought one, and I can assure you it’s worth double.
