Suits Are Back!

|
Nothing screams 'Child of the 70s' like mirrored balls, boogie fever, and disco suits.
For research purposes we googled images for "1970s style." Yikes! Did we REALLY wear that stuff? Been there, done that!
So what do we make of the 70s trend that's gripped fashion of late? We say, steal from the boys and go for suits, trenches, and tweeds.
