Of course we would all love to have wardrobe's time warped from the 1920s, but it just isn't possible.

So opt for the simple (and cheap) ways to incorporate Gatsby into your summer style!

Retro outfits

Lace shorts & transparent pumps - Forever 21, Layered white top - Zara, Dress - H&M, Ankle strap pumps - Steve Madden

CLOTHES

Sure we would love to wear drop-waist dresses, The things to remember about dressing in Gatsby style are the DETAILS.

Anything that looks one-of-a-kind, vintage, or just has marvelous features, snatch it up or create your own version.

MAKE UP & HAIR

The Gatsby aura is all about clear, pale skin with a rosy glow and smoky eyes, accented lips., so stick to black eyeliner(winged a bit if you like) and pink or red lipstick and as for hair, a straight or curly bob is spot-on.

JEWELERY

If you want to incorporate flapper style into your jewelry, make sure it is high quality, sparkly, and classy. Any baubles that dangle are perfect. You can also pair your outfit with long strands of pearls and matching earrings, and voila! It seems as if you should be dancing the Charleston!

Tip: A quick way to sneak in some Roaring 20s is by adding ribbons or flowers to your clothes/purse/hair

It's all about the mix!
