Come and Knock on Our Door - Edinburgh Castle 1964 - San Francisco

Man pretends to be gay to live in a low rent apartment with a ditzy blonde and a feisty brunette. That's the premise. Simple misunderstandings and double-entendres ensue for 8 seasons. If you grew up during the late seventies through the eighties like I did, you know what I'm talking about. It's funny how a guy living with two girls was a huge deal during that time period, and considering how much things have changed, fashion remains cyclical, and certain looks eventually crop up again. This era spawned so much, and all the popular american apparel booty shorts/tube socks business that is now becoming marketed to the masses, is merely a derivative of the feathered hair era. With all the 80's revival of bright colours and tight pants for this 00's decade, it seems like it may finally be winding down, and high waisted jeans are coming back with a fury. We just keep going further back in time...

This SFstylist could have stepped off the set of Jaws 2...
or Charlie's Angels (Fawcett not Diaz.)

She just radiates confident and wholesome and sexy, all at once, which was thought to be impossible. The golden timepiece and ebullient waves of hair really pull everything together. She stuck with the theme so well it borders on being a period costume, and that's a good thing. Personally, I can't get enough blasts from the pasts. (Which is not to say that I don't appreciate contemporary and futurist concepts.)

P.S. This is also a good example of, "What you wear is not as important as HOW you wear it."
