i have been so obsessed with the sixties lately

alternate title: mini dresses mini dresses mini dresses

here are some pics from my harddrive to make up for the wall of text i just posted:






the girl who was selling this pattern on etsy talked about how, during the sixties, she had a dress just like the blue one in the middle. when she wore it to the school dance, the hem-to-knee length was measured to make sure the dress wasn't too short; it turns out that the ruffle on the bottom had a zipper on it, and she unzipped it when she got onto the dance floor! pretty rad.


im strangely attracted to the kitschy leg-o-mutton sleeves on these dresses, but how to wear them without looking "renaissance faire," hmm...





sharon tate in "the fearless vampire killers." she's not mini dress related but i just had to include this since she looks so lovely here with her red hair and all. she was as beautiful as her murder was gruesome. as interesting as they are, i elected not to post the crime scene photos so please google them if you are so inclined. you're probably thinking "you sick freak why would you even consider posting them in the first place?" idk just thought it would liven this place up a little (i know that's ironic)
