Cyndi Lauper who came out and sang a couple of her hits, including "True Colors" and "Girls Just Want To Have Fun."

Wow look at the split I want to be like her when I grow up haha.

Dear Betsey Johnson, You are an inspiration, you really know how to party and know what girls love. You make us feel girly with all your designs, clothing and accessory options. I want to come back as Betsey Johnson in my next life!

Happy Birthday, Betsey!!

Marc Jacobs

As you guys know I Love 60's fashion and I was dazzled to see that Marc Jacobs had a strong 60's-influenced in his Spring 2013 ready to wear collection.

This collection is bold, the colours and geometric patters gives this collection an unconventional look. The models' hair and makeup also rock!

Oscar De La Renta.

There was a definite 60's feel to this collection, the full skirts

and three-quarter-length sleeves on jackets, sweaters, and cardigans. It seems to me this collection is inspired by Barbie Dolls. It's youthful and colorful with his established elegance through his evening wear.

This gown got to my attention
