I have noticed here lately that a lot of things from the late 50's early 60's is coming back into style. While x-mas shopping I have seen a lot of retro items being sold (x-mas paper, cookie jars, etc...). Even women are dressing retro 60's (pearls, bows, fur coats etc...). Wonder if the ladies will get extreme and get the helmet flip hair do's sprayed down with Aqua Net # 5 ? I'm a big fan of the late 50's and early 60's and I'm all for this retro kick. What's your opinion ?

Well, I was born in 72 so I'm in to alot of the 50-60's stuff as well except for alot of the clothing. I detested the bellbottom pants and I still hate them and in fact, I wouldn't be buried in them. I also can't stand these hip hugger jeans or I guess most of these clothes now days so it is difficult for me to find clothes that are for me anymore. I guess when it comes to clothes from the 60's and 70's, I didn't care for them. I liked the 50's clothing pretty well but I think the 80's clothing suited me much better. But other stuff from those era's I find fascinating! I'm a huge fan when it comes to 50's diners and cars! Those neon lights were so awesome! I'll welcome the 50's trends back anytime!

Another item from the 60's coming back in to vogue are the cars. Have you seen the new Mustangs? The style is taken I believe from the 67's.

No, I haven't noticed the new Mustangs. The 67 Mustang was an impressive car. I'll keep a look out for them.

Yeah, those new Mustangs are great! I've heard that the new Mustang is supposed to look like a '68. Check out the link below.
