many celebs have been spotted showing off their fabulous 60's style going out-fits whether the dress is a newer rendition of 60s inspired looks, or a real vintage dress from some outrageously overpriced parisian boutique specialty store. whatever the case, they look amazingly hip and retro.

have a feisty day

i'm sorry for not updating in a while. i've been busy with school (i'm graduating!!) and am in transition from a house with 8 people living in it, to a cute little apartment, which i'm very excited about because i'll be taking many pictures of the progression and tips you can try to improve your home! plus i'm just excited to see how cute everything turns out! anyways, retrofix magazine will be postponed until further notice (basically, i will need to wait a while more so i can get more people to subscribe), but check out this amazing singer, feist, while you wait.. and stay tuned for more amazing retro and eclectic finds!
