Still at a loss on what to be this Halloween? Let's go back in time and visit the styles of the Roaring 20s! The 1920s marked the arrival of a new independent woman called the flapper. Found at speakeasies and jazz clubs, their look showcased bare arms, short hemlines, heavy makeup, and sleek short hair (think of
Velma and
Roxie from the musical
"Chicago"). Designers today have taken inspiration from the 20s and you too can find clothes and accessories that will have people saying you're "the bee's knees." Take a look at this
color-block flapper inspired dress with a rhinestone encrusted neckline or
these shoes with a unique wishbone style strap that will have you dancing all night long. For more, check out my SLIDESHOW for items that will put a swing in your step!
