Britpop gals aren’t always found on the dance floor or record shopping. Sometimes we find ourselves in formal situations like weddings, professional award ceremonies, anniversary celebrations, and such. This doesn’t mean we have to wear generic attire – it’s possible to pull off a chic mod look on elegant evenings. Choose this sophisticated navy and […]
Britpop Style File: Lounging Around
Some days call for comfort, like a rainy weekend in after a night of living it up, or a mental health day home from work. Lounge around the house in style with this tongue-in-cheek loose-fitting shirt that is something of an ode to Oasis arrangements 😉 Songwriters Assistant Top in Long Sleeve from ModCloth – […]
Mod Monday: Yellow A-line Skirt
I love this curry-colored skirt with buttons down the front, especially paired with a schoolgirl blouse. Paired with over-the-knee socks and loafers, this is a cute combination of bookish charm meets subtle sexiness.

Mod Monday: Pan Am Style
Now defunct Pan American Airlines has a rich history in the international airline industry and its own small place in the annals of retro fashion. The smart stewardess uniforms with infamous hats have become cultural icons for the time. Rather than recreate a costume that would look silly today, pay homage to this stylish look […]
Mod Monday: Coral Shift Dress
I love the coral, rose, and beige colors in this dress. It just says Springtime to me. The white mesh panels on the bodice is an unexpected and charming detail. You can of course match this with beige or coral heels, but try an unexpected color if you’re feeling daring, and tie it together with […]
Mod Monday: Darling Daisies
Here’s a cute vintage-inspired dress with a darling daisy print and retro silver buttons. I love the satin collar and tie-sash that gives you some shape. Paired with strappy sandals, a wide headband, and retro daisy earrings, this look will be perfect for a spring day. Mod for Each Other Dress from ModCloth from: ModCloth […]
Britpop Style File: Kula Shaker – Hush Edition
Crispian Mills of Kula Shaker has evolved his look over the years, going from casual early 70s psychedelia-inspired to more fancy early 70s psychedelia-inspired. In this 1997 video for Hush, he encapsulates a 90s twist on hippie chic with flared jeans, a tight t-shirt, and shaggy hair. Recreate this down-to-earth look without looking dated by swapping […]

Perfect for warm sunny days, this casual look has subtle embellishments that give a nod to classic nautical style without being too costume-y. This would look so cute paired with a wide brim sunhat.

Mod Monday: Minty Fresh
Here’s a casual look for breezy spring days. Pastel mint trousers and a prettily-detailed blouse are accented by cute mint-colored retro accessories. Save the look from being too monochromatic with a pop of color in the shoe. I chose these dusty rose t-strap ballet flats to continue the pastel softness. Charming Companion Top from ModCloth […]
Mod Monday: Silky Shift Dress
Here’s a comfy, cute dress perfect for those Springtime days that can go either way: cool with a brisk breeze or warmed up by sunshine. Forego the tights and swap out the heels for flats on hot days that call for bare legs. I’m just a sucker for the blue and yellow color combo, aren’t […]
