Why I Love The Sixties...

6/9/2012

2 Comments

 
I've always loved 60s music. I grew up listening to the Beatles, Bob Dylan and Joan Baez. The reason I got my guitar was so I could learn to play Leonard Cohen's 'Suzanne'.

More recently I've fallen in love with all things Sixties: The Homeware - Pyrex, J&G Meakin Studioware, G Plan; The Patterns - flower power, paisley and tie-dye, and The Fashions - mod, minis and bell bottoms.

Now I don't think I could pick a favourite era, but 60s style is close to my heart. It's inspired me to create my first Etsy treasury. I want that clock, and those shoes, and... well, everything!

I really like a lot of the fashion but you have found a lot of other items that I admire.

Thanks! I tried to include a broad range. I love home ware, but like you the fashion really appeals to me too.
