How do I do my hair like the 50s?
How do you get 50s curls?
How do you do 50s short hairstyles?
How do you dress like jeans in the 50s?
Here’s how to create a casual look with rolled up jeans:
- Cuffed skinny jeans.
- White t-shirt – either a ribbed tank top or a soft cotton short sleeve.
- Cotton or flannel plaid shirt worn open over the tee.
- Slip on loafers or “boat shoes”
- Accessorize with 50s-inspired aviator sunglasses and a trendy “man-bag” such as a duffel.
