Put on your drop waist dresses, a string of pearls, and your dancing shoes, and head down to your local Speakeasy (password: Style) for a good time! This season Flapper-inspired fashions have paved the way for many cute pieces for spring. One of the most elegant and prolific designers of our time, the Miss Coco Chanel, epitomized 1920’s style, and changed the way society viewed fashion.

The neutral tones of navy, cream, and beige and the simple shapes that didn’t have elaborate definition or detail, have been re-invented in 2008, taken to a whole new level of sophistication. A mixture of masculine inspired pieces and sultry feminine accessories give this look a very natural and easy feel.

These looks can be worn during the day while out shopping, picnicking, or just enjoying the spring atmosphere, and then can be taken straight to evening for a night of dinner, dancing, and maybe even some romancing! Prohibition won’t keep you away from these flirty, fabulous, and fun favs that are going to be a staple in your closet. Check them out!
