Flower Power and the Summer of Love

So recently, I have become obsessed with flower children, a.k.a. hippies.  I love the concepts of  peace, love, the whole non-violence ideology.  Maybe the hippies were a tad unrealistic, but their aims were good.  They transformed not only protests and politics, but also....surprise!!!!!! FASHION!!!

They wore flowery tunics, long flowy dresses, big round tortoiseshell sunglasses, peace signs and flowers up the wazoo, headbands, Afros, Bermuda shorts, bell-bottoms, bright patch-worked jackets, miniskirts, and tie dye.

Get ready to go back to 1967- the Summer of Love
