Get Mod: ’60s Style

’60s Casual

It may seem like everyone was showing off their legs 24/7 during the ’60s, but pants were popular, too. Women started wearing more casual separates during this time — stuff that was actually comfortable. That didn’t mean all elegant touches were lost. Boxy-cut jackets were a favorite of the ’60s (made famous by Jackie O.), and bright florals were one of the most popular prints.

Get the ’60s casual vibe by wearing a boxy-cut blazer with a multi-colored floral blouse and skinny jeans. Or if you want to keep the rest of your outfit completely current, a pair of sunglasses in the right shape will give you an instant ’60s appeal. Choose either cat eye or circle frames, and go for either white or tortoise shell — two popular styles of sunglasses during the decade.
