I recently got a big stack of vintage Teen magazines from 1970-1976 and as you’d expect they’re a wealth of style inspiration and style warnings. Some of the most interesting fashion tips are in regard to how to do your hair, so without further ado here are some hair styles from the 1970s! Which is your favorite?
There are many things to love about Marianne Faithfull’s style. In the first part of her life in the limelight she wore fashion-forward, ultra femme clothing. As time went by she added more masculine touches to her outfits and now at 66 years old she rocks black blazers and plunging necklines like no one else. Here are some of my favorite Marianne Faithfull outfits:

Recently, I saw a genius DIY on Rookie Mag about how to make your own glitter frames without lenses. I love the idea but as someone who needs prescription lenses I figured it would be worth a try to modify the tutorial for sunglasses with lenses. Here’s how I did it!
Step 1: cover the lenses with painter’s tape or masking tape to protect them. I did this by tearing the tape up into tiny pieces and covering the lenses from where they meet the frames inward toward the middle.
Step 2: apply the glitter nail polish. I put on two coats, waiting for the first coat to fully dry before I applied the second.
There you go! Easy DIY glitter sunglasses to brighten your day! If you end up trying this project please show me a picture, I’d love to know how it works out for you.
