oh the 60s... you look nice

i've been a bit into looking at pictures of Jane Birkin lately. sort of the ultimate cool euro fashion chic of the 1960's. i definitely factor a little bit of her into my daily "who am i today?" routine... it's always been in me, but lately a deeper fascination is creeping in and i find myself scouring the interwebs a bit more...

i am also styling the groom at my dear lovely friend's wedding. and bless his little socks if he is not TOTALLY into (and fully capable of, i might add) rocking the 60's mod suit. how much do i love this? a lot.

nothing personal against the rockers of today. but to be perfectly honest - does anything beat the way the Beatles looked in their suits? i mean COME ON - perfection. (don't get me wrong - i'm also way into the later John Lennon look - but that's another story for another day). it's put together, it looks slick, and for those of you gents who don't care to think much about dressing - it really is kind of a no-brainer.

perhaps it's part nostalgia. times appear as if they were much more simple then. modern life is so freakin complicated. but hey, since we're here, i guess looking good can make the complication feel a bit less harsh...
