Hippy Hippie
The Hippie Look is Back in Style
As crazy as it sounds, the hippie or flower child look is finding its way back into fashion conscious peoples wardrobes all over the world now. The truth of the matter, is that there really is a creative gold mine in the hippie era that has yet to be tapped properly by fashion designers and this means that there is a lot that you can do yourself.
In fact, allot of the design styles that flourished during the hippie era of the 1960s was do-it-yourself stuff that looks great. “Hippie beads” are a mainstay of that era and how you string them is really up to you. The sky is the limit as to what was strung on a good set of hippie beads but some common items that went on along with the standard assortment of beads were of course peace signs and small brass bells.
There is no mistaking the small round “hippie” sunglasses that were worn during that era and the most “hippie” colors were red and purple or blue. They tended to be round or oval and had wire rims. A great place to see examples of them is to go online and look at old pics of the Beatles and the Jefferson Airplane.
The hippie or flower child look uses a lot of tapestry as a fabric of choice in items such as purses and also macreme knotting was used to create belts and bags. After you have finished decorating yourself with the hippie look then you may want to consider doing some hippie decorating inside of your home with lava lamps, Hendrix posters and hanging bead door ways. Also, don’t forget to pick up a nice big brass incense burner and a good supply of incense in a wide mix of exotic flavors.
