I fell in love with this dress when I saw it, and even more when I tried it on! Something about it just screamed out a '70s vibe to me! '70s style takes hints of '60s mod graphic prints, mixes it in with the hippie revolution, and takes it to the next level with oversized silhouettes, cropped hemlines, and solid accessories to anchor it all down!

Here is some '70s style inspiration, followed by some '70s-inspired outfits to get you all looking like you're grooving to a Supertramp album on a vinyl couch in your cork-walled basement. ;)

{purse / jeans / blouse / platforms / earrings / bracelet}

Few things say '70s more to me than flared jeans, platforms, and bold prints! Put it all over the edge with a fringed statement bag, and you have basically entered a style time machine!

{sunglasses / purse / dress / platforms / ring}

Half-Twiggy, half-Mary-Kate Olsen, the over-the top mustard yellow dress, ditsy floral platforms, and funky accessories exude '70s style!

{jacket / blouse / necklace / hat / shorts / huaraches}

I think this interpretation of '70s style is extremely wearable! Easy cutoffs, comfy huaraches, and a drapey blouse and jacket are super relaxed and super easy, but have just the right about of vintage flair to really make your style pop!

What do you think - will you try rocking your own updated version of '70s style?
