Copy this hip 1950s look from Brigitte Bardot with a few fashion pieces available online.

High-Low Striped Knit Top - Forever 21

Mossimo Women's Ankle Pants in Lollipop Red - Target

$27.99

Kelly & Katie Limbo Flat - DSW

Sweater Chain from ModCloth

Behold Together Pin - ModCloth

$19.99

I really wish sweater chains would make a comeback. Cardigans are still worn by many and what a great way to dress them up while also preventing the cardigan from riding down.

I love this one from ModCloth and I hope they'll make more available!

Nautical Dress from Lord & Taylor

Striped Jersey Cowlneck Dress - Lord & Taylor

$144.00

I saw this dress the other day at Lord & Taylor and fell in love with it. It's lined and if you have the figure it's very flattering. A great 1940s nautical look. However, it didn't work for my body type so I had to pass it up for another dress. I was really sad and I kept dreaming about all the amazing accessories that I could have worn with it. Drat.

Everything at Lord & Taylor is 25% off until April 26th. That's a great deal! Online use promo code FRIENDS to apply the discount. At the store it's discounted for you at the cash wrap.

I love hosiery with the classic back seam. Here are a few options available to purchase online. The ModCloth seam fish nets look just live the ones in the picture above!
