Are you game for vintage style? Try a full 50’s inspired skirt [HINT: It’s all over Cannes]

I have rule around here about never wearing vintage too literally when it's a style that YOU wore in its first fashion outing as it seriously dates you... in other words, makes you look o-l-d. So if you watched I Love Lucy in anything other than a rerun, skip this look. But for the rest of us, why not try a midi-length, flippy & full 50's inspired skirt for some summer dash?   It looks great as an airy summer dress or for a big night out. And you know I've been loving this look for awhile.-- S.H. Jasmine Trinca in Miu Miu (left) and Naomi Watts in Dolce & Gabbana (right) Cannes Do Chic: After seasons of body-con &
