Blast from the Past: The Top 3 Must-Have Retro Pieces

Somethings should stay in the past: Pepsi Clear, Vanilla Ice and lower-back tattoos are all prominent examples. But style, our dear friends, should not.

In fact, we love retro pieces so much, we’ve curated our top three, must-have pieces for any wardrobe.

80s: The Boxy Blazer

The 80s brought us some of the most dynamic fashions. From teased bangs to neon makeup, of all the memorable styles from the time, we’d say the padded blazer reigns supreme. Adding a bulky, padded appearance to your shoulders, the blazer was worn by businesswoman and men alike. For a more modern look, try the style sans sleeves and with minimal padding

Classic colors: contrasting two tones.

70s: The Wrap Dress

Channel the feminine feel of the 70s in a garment that matches the decade’s polished side. The wrap dress is one of the most iconic pieces to make it out of 70s and into your wardrobe. Style it with modern favorites like a pair of pumps or a classic trench for an updated look. For a modern alternative, slip into an oversized, wrap shirt dress in crisp white or business blue.

Classic colors: Orange, green or yellow.

60s: The Graphic Mini

If your style is boxy and boyish in the best of ways, your go-to decade is none other than the 60s. Give a nod to mod and opt for a boxy mini in a graphic print. Play up geometrics and look for a dress with large scale squares and circles. For a modern take, try the silhouette with sexy cutouts at the hip of waist.

Classic colors: Black and white with pops of color.

Welcome back these blasts from the past with open arms (closets) and let the blazer, wrap dress and mini be your favorite retro pieces.
