The spread in the WSJ magazine today was full of fun inspiration, all pieces shown are more luxurious than what was actually being worn. These price tags turn the 70’s into an event for the one percenters; no one else need show up. The 70’s weren’t snobby or elitist–it was essentially the launch of ‘street style.’ None of us paid big to be cool . . .
Great story, and it jogged my memory of red bags, which I carried all through the 70’s and into the early 80’s.
The Loafers.
Paula, your comment is spot on!
