FLARES
As homage to my love of all things seventies. (A tad obsessed) Today I'm sharing how I style Retro Flares. Do you fancy adding a little dab of flared funk to your Christmas celebration this year? If so read on sista or brotha (I'm a berk) and grab a glass of festive fizz!
Flares are an all time favourite of mine. The extreme wide bell shaped leg instantly create a visual statement and mood. Typically worn in the 1970's with a strong chelsea boot or high heel inbetween the hippy era by a particular type of woman.
I've teamed my flares with my big collar puffy sleeved 'colour of the season' Red shirt.
I've also added a double knit red vintage jumper to add a bit of layering and warmth to this look.
The bag is navy and quite structured in design. I like how the gold chain add's a bit of glam and sparkle too.
The flares are wool navy, each button keeps the trousers really fitted and slim line around the waist.
I've spoken before how I like the roughness and masculinity of this coat. I call it my Del Boy coat! (Please tell me you grew up watching Del and Rodney Only Fools and Horses) It just never fail's at making me feel pretty fabulous.

I love the 70s look and music, I love the 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s and 90s and of course grew up watching only fools and horses and still do on channel gold!. I like that you love and have an appreciation for all things vintage. Very well styled. p.s. loving the Del Boy coat "cushty"
