Fred Perry trainers sixties style

April 17, 2016Written by: Johanna Payton No Comments

I was chatting to one of the guys from the Scorpion Shoes team last week, and it struck me that I’ve never styled trainers on the blog. Now, you might not think trainers are a natural fit with 60s styling, but I’ve been craving white pumps for the summer…and what better heritage brand for a …

Topshop monochrome flower print 60s style dress

May 22, 2015Written by: Johanna Payton No Comments

Now here’s a sixties style dress to get the bank holiday weekend cracking if ever I saw one. It’s brand new in at Topshop and it’s just £55. I love a monochrome mini and with white sandals and a white head scarf, it’s vintage-inspired spring perfection.   Image: Topshop

Early 60s summer dress by Topshop

April 8, 2015Written by: Johanna Payton No Comments

Here’s a cutie, now the weather’s getting warmer. The trick to this dress, if you want to hit an early 1960s vibe, is how you style it. White accessories (shoes, hair band across a beehive, clutch bag and cropped cardi) turn it into a mod must-have if you’re a 60s fashion fanatic, but the peep …

Topshop blue sporty dress

February 27, 2015Written by: Johanna Payton No Comments

Now, this may be described as a “sporty” dress, but I caught sight of it in-store at Topshop yesterday and it is perfect if you’re into a natty little 60s look with a fun Twiggy vibe. I almost, almost parted with £45 to own it – and may still succumb – but you can beat …

Channelling Cilla Black fashion: 60s knit in olive green

October 12, 2014Written by: Johanna Payton No Comments

If I will go catching up on shows set in the sixties about Liverpudlian fashion icons like Cilla Black, it will cost me money… Straight after teaching my fashion journalism students on Friday, I swung by Topshop Oxford Circus to rummage through the Peekaboo Vintage concession: I was in hot pursuit of a 60s knit. …

Biker boots by Chloe Jade Green

September 25, 2014Written by: Johanna Payton No Comments

    As an old school Made In Chelsea fan, I’m never going to be able to think about Chloe Jade Green withough remembering the time she made Ollie Locke cry to the point where his foundation was streaking right down his cheeks. Tragic. Since leaving the show, “Topshop heiress” Chloe has been busy designing …

Five autumn 2014-friendly Topshop tops

August 27, 2014Written by: Johanna Payton No Comments

Well, the pissy weather has forced us all to think about autumn a tad prematurely. But don’t feel downhearted about it ladies: picture all those lush colours and prints you can rock with skinny jeans and chunky boots. And this is the year of the parka, I promise you. To get the party started, I’m …

Topshop contrast print top and skirt

April 25, 2014Written by: Johanna Payton No Comments

I want that one and that one – Topshop at its best. Instead, however, I need to go out and choose bathroom tiles…

Topshop folk print shirt – and something fab for a boy

April 7, 2014Written by: Johanna Payton No Comments

I was in Leeds at the weekend and – amazingly – managed to resist all vintage purchases opting for this multicoloured folk print shirt instead. I wasn’t the only one purchasing retro style tops either – my fella needed little persuasion to splash out on this Magical Mystery Tour inspired tee from Liam Gallagher’s latest …

Topshop grey and red midi skirt

March 12, 2014Written by: Johanna Payton 1 Comment

Can anyone think of a single good reason why I shouldn’t use some birthday loolah to buy this charming, very retro, floral print midi skirt tomorrow? Just imagine it with my red Office Mary Jane shoes… I even have time to kill in the afternoon between uni and meeting a lovely friend for dinner; time …
