The fabulous sounds of the sixties and seventies

 The fabulous sounds of the sixties and seventies,was also the revolution of denim!

Mainly the revolution was music,fashion and new found freedoms,cutting class barriers,and a social revolution.Today these barriers appear stronger than ever.Freedoms are eroding.

Most revolutions dont usually replace the establishment with anything better!Governments these days have gained more control over  the last few decades,lockdowns and The covid virus brought that about.Todays youth seem somewhat resigned to their fate,at least those Ive spoken to.

But we are here to choose music and fashion of the sixties and seventies,and fashions we like or may wear.I dont see anything other than a sort of conformity and a sameness on our streets.

Fashion 2023 is choosing some retro ideas,dictating baggy jeans,hipsters,shoulder pads,fringing,Cut outs on clothes and midriffs,floral dresses, nicknamed ‘Flower Power’.With so much violence on our news, midriffs arent a practical idea.The ‘new colors for summer are…cobalt blue,and black.

I will wear as little black as possible and opt for pale blue,denim and peacock blue/ green.

Im sticking for plainer,with the sleeves cut out of my jean jackets,with inside pockets.All my clothes are recycled,as practically everything in my house.Ive noticed Thrift stores and second hand stores are becoming pricey and short of good offers these days.Many closed after the CV virus.

Rarely do I see a ‘must have’ in upmarket clothes shops.Also Antique shops are sadly closing down.Young couples are moving into small boxlike apartments with no outdoor space and choosing plain modern cheap furniture.Im still into restoration for furniture,it better value.I love the oudoors,and small yard and small garden,essential to living to be outdoors as much as possible.

Post great music,memes,gifs,fashion pics,the type of clothes that you wear or choose.

Remember politics and religion are a NO NO.Respect all commemters.
