Flare jeans trendy this season, bow-tie blouses, polka-dot dresses, kitty glasses are automatically associated with a retro style.

To correctly create retro images with these and other things, but at the same time stay in trend, you need to follow simple rules. Here are some practical tips to keep you safe from fashion failure.

Focus on details

Retro style things are dangerous, first of all, because they can add years to you. Minimize the risk. Make a completely modern look and complement it with retro-style accessories.
