Retro Play of the Week: "Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)" by the Eurythmics

Heard this song while driving the other day. Essential to any 80s mix I think! Interesting music video though... You just never know what you're gonna get in anything that comes from this sweet strange decade.

And now, everytime I hear "Sweet Dreams", I naturally think of this amazing video... AND Jay Leno was so impressed with the couple's impromptu karaoke performance that he invited them onto the show! The lesson here? Any time you are given the chance to karaoke, you sing your heart out! Because you never know who could be watching ;)

Recent Vintage Finds!!!!

So I went vintage clothes shopping a few days ago and here's what I found...

Fab Find #1: Loose mid-thigh length blue and white pinstripe shorts. Cute, right?!

Here's a good example of how shorts like this should be styled to capture that retro look.

And just to show you that I'm not making this stuff up, here's a pattern from the 80s featuring shorts like the ones I found. Similar, no?










Fab Find #2: Navy blue/red/white patterned scarf

Personally, I love to wear scarves as headbands, but a thin, brightly colored one like this would also look great with a blouse or if the scarf in long enough, you can even use it as a sash around your waist. 

Here's the first look that came to mind when I saw this scarf while shopping. For this vintage hairstyle and more, check out this web page!

This is probably my favorite way of wearing a scarf with a blouse.
