60's/70's Themed Party

[Tilly2]

I'm going to a party on Saturday and it's themed as above.
I have a cheesecloth dress, sandals, beads etc but I don't know what to do with my hair which is a longish, bob. Any ideas? I have also forgotten what kind of make up I wore forty years ago. Any help there?

[Infomaniac]

How about wearing a thin bandanna around your forehead?
Heavy eye makeup, false lashes, and pale lips.

[EcclesCake]

Pigtails if long enough, or wear flowers in your hair....I'm sure there was a song about that....

Cheese cloth and beads wouldn't suit a Farah Fawcett big curl style.

[tonyav]

hippy chick !.

[murraymints]

Blue eyeshadow, white frosted lips, big eyelashes...

[murraymints]

Bunches or pigtails...

[Tilly2]

Thanks everyone, so far.
Bandanna, blue eye-shadow, white lipstick, flowers. This will cost a fortune. Can you still get blue eye-shadow?

[factor-fiction]

How many letters please and do you have any placed?

I picture you as a Dusty Springfield type- is your hair too short for these? I assume you don't want a wig

[EcclesCake]

Google some 60's/70's sitcoms, Man about the house, Robin's Nest, Good Life etc......I'm too young to remember any others ;-)

Hiya till. I think pink,heart-shaped sunglasses would look fab.

[Bella28]

Very witty factor fiction

[Tilly2]

Good idea, eccles. I'll have a look.

Yes, factor, my hair is too short for bunches. I only look a bit like Dusty.

[tonyav]

. I only look a bit like Dusty.


Which bit Yilly ?.

[Tilly2]

Oh yes, I forgot about the sunglasses, svejk. I was going to wear my John Lennon owl glasses.

[factor-fiction]

I forgot the images of Dusty

Or what about cutting it shorter into a Twiggy style

How did this get in Crosswords? Factor, was that you?

[mallyh]

thick cleopatra eye liner pink lippy. backcombed hair

[factor-fiction]

It must have been you Tilly. If I had the facility to move posts into Crosswords I'd start with all those posters that still choose to post them in Quizzes rather than those posters who perhaps just have fat fingers

[Tilly2]

I don't have fat fingers!
Mallyh, thank you but I am not backcombing my hair. I was hoping to be a bit more Mary Hopkins than Dusty Springfield.
I may buy a wig.
I hope it doesn't rain.

[Svejk]

Don't forget this;
