It might be time to look in your mom or dad’s closet for something to wear. Many styles from twenty or thirty years ago, which went "out of fashion" for a while, are now back in style. The surge in popularity of items with an " old school" feeling includes clothing, accessories, and much more. From "bell-bottom" jeans from the 1960s to sunglasses from the 1980s, everything old is new again!
【B1】______In the beginning, a trend is usually red hot. Then, it gets warm, cool, and then cold for fifteen to twenty years. That’s how long it takes for a new generation—who never went through the fad—to grow up. They "rediscover" old fashions. At the same time, starting in their thirties, people often get nostalgic. They may visit "vintage style" shops or websites to relive feelings from their past.
【B2】______The first is buying actual vintage items. Stores, e-tailers, and auction sites sell just about everything you can think of. Need a pair of cowboy boots from the 1950s? No problem. A pair of sunglasses from the 1960s? Also easy. However, be prepared for some sticker shock. High-demand items like vintage leather jackets and Levi’s jeans can be very expensive.
【B3】______For example, a retro style clock may be made to look like your grandfather’s. Yet, on the inside, it will contain 21st century technology. Other companies blend retro and modern styles. This has been done with great success by car companies like Volkswagen—the Beetle, and BMW—the Mini Cooper.
【B4】______ For example, an old polo shirt might go great with a new jacket. Accessories like vintage handbags and watches can also help you stand out. However, experts warn against overdoing it, such as wearing an entire outfit from the 1970s. It may make you stand out more than you want to!
【B5】______The last fifty years have seen an explosion of new trends and styles. So, if you’re feeling bored with your look, check out an old clothing catalogue for inspiration. Or, to liven up your home or office, consider looking to the past for some great ideas.
