Cute Girl Band

We first came across The Like – an American 60s-inspired girl band – a while back in 2010

Since then they’ve been popping up in all the right places and we were suddenly compelled to pay homage to their super cute retro style when we found out that they’ll soon be touring here, there and everywhere!

Headed up by Elizabeth ‘Z’ Berg (vocals and guitar), Tennessee Thomas (drums), Laena Geronimo (bass), and Annie Monroe (organ), it looks like 2011 is the year for these girls. And the best bit? Their latest album is just as cool as their standout 60s look!

From early February, they’re heading out on tour so check out where they are and when, and go check out their style and vocals!

If you want to follow suit and fancy a dose of retro style, we have just the trend for you - get in the 60s vibe with Demi Couture!

If you like this please follow me and I'll follow you back :) Thank you.

Gucci's Women’s Autumn Winter 2011-2012 Collection

Floating clouds of colorful fur, elusive transparency, masculine accents, glimpses of patent leather for a lady of mystery and irony. The stylish provocation of a daring colour palette. Eyes hidden by a wide-brimmed hat, with feathers, recalling an eccentric muse. For the Autumn Winter 2011-2012 season, the Gucci woman dresses with a cinematic allure and a strong seductive power. Entrancing like a performance by Florence Welch from Florence and the Machine. Intriguing like archive images of Anjelica Huston photographed by Bob Richardson. As a film noir in color.

“This is a contemporary female dandy who fuses glamour and seduction using the iconic codes of the House. She is a polished woman with a decisive personality, who is attentive to detail and willing to dare," commented Frida Giannini.

Silhouette
Sartorial details and dramatized Seventies proportions. Influenced by a vision of the Forties. The line drops down to the knee and flares. Stoles emphasize shoulders, tight on small masculine jacket with striking lapels and on coat with military detailing and a synched waist. Subtle feminine belts are accentuated with leather trims. Flowing, ethereal dresses give way to see-through effects and tie at the neck with long scarves. The masculine side returns with extra-wide pants, in lightweight nabuk or in exclusive British mélange fabrics. And the pant-skirt becomes a signature, paired with a caban and over-the-knee boots. Worn with black and white graphic prints. Polka dots, geometric prints, light pied de poule. For an incognito get away.
