Psychedelic memories.....

It was a gorgeous Sunday afternoon in Perth, just perfect for strolling and shopping. I like to think that even though by some standards Perth might be considered a small city  at the back of beyond, that we do have a our fair share of stylish young people as per example above. I'm very sure I had a similar psychedelic dress back in the  70's.....Ah! good times..!!

  11. I"m thinking Annie Hall for some reason. On this young girl, the outrageous outfit seems to suit her. Lovely.

  12. I admit that my eye was caught for a moment a bit lower than the young lady's dress, but the overall image is gorgeous and full of life!

  14. It does look very retro. What goes around comes around. Wasn't the 70s look a variation of the look from the 20s?
