Cute and Colorful Spring Fashion from 1965

I love the POP! of jelly-bean colors in these great spring fashion items from 1965. Check out these cute coats and chin-strap roller hats while you think of spring. Yummy fashion!

Spring just begs for the addition of bright colors like these!

1960s Mother - Daughter Mod Hats

Here in Seattle, we are celebrating the 50th anniversary of the Beatles first performance in our city. What fun!! Special exhibits, performances by cover bands that specialize in the Beatles' music, and the like are going on all week.

So in honor of the Fab Four, and the Mod fashions that spread as fast as their music (aka the "British Invasion"), here are two hat patterns that I recently posted in my shop, one for girls and the other for ladies. Looking like Mother-Daughter patterns, they date from 1965 and typify the Mod style of that day. Totally groovy!
