Back to 70s

Salam and hi!

Mini skirts, caftan, tank tops, disco fashion, checkers, polka-dots, and many more. So many things I can relate to 70s fashion. I'll try to mix and match for 'Majlis Sireh Pulang ke Gagang' organised by Kelab UMNO Lancaster, Lancaster University Malaysian Society and HELWA Lancaster. Sometimes, I realised one frequently worn style was my mom dress with a high lace trimmed neck and floral print design skirt. Typical short pants and mini skirt and a maxi dress. I wonder  how can I translate my wardrobe into 70s to fit with the farewell dinner theme. Aiyayayayaya. Blank!

70s aren't my favourite fashion decades though until I googled few information about be retro chic with 70s style! The lively, disco-infused with mainstream fashion, platform wedges, glitter and anything to do with polyester made the 70s apparel so much funky! So many styles for 70s fashion such as punk, disco, hippies, flower child and this style is too extreme to be worn on the everyday. 

Got a wardrobe crammed full of clothes but I still have nothing to wear. I chunk the lot out and I feel a lot better - I thought I would never have gorgeous tops and skirts huhuhu. But finally, I decided to mix and match; flared skirt, polka-dots blouse and a belt! I have been doing research about 70s fashion for a couple weeks but a couple hours before the dinner, after having tried on every item of clothing I owned, I managed to go back to basics. Simple polka-dots top and a plain skirt by Syomir Izwa. 


I wore:
Top : H&M
Skirt : Syomir Izwa
Clutch : Miss Selfridge
Glasses : Rayban
Necklace : Dorothy Perkins







Lancaster was sunny but strong winds!
