Style from LIFE
I know my posts have been a little McRandom this week, but if you, like me, find tremendous inspiration in images from the past, then you’ll be thrilled to hear LIFE Magazine has digitized its image archive, all of which is available now through Google image search. You can search for your favorite movie stars, images of your city, and fascinatingly mundane photos of everyday life. A selection of my favorites proves that headbands are hot, mixing by hand can be glamorous, black and white clothes always looks chic, and cool girls have always knit.
