Take a Step Back in Time into these Flower Power Fashion Comic Books

11871615793_44c65b2682_o

Today I went in search of mindless distractions from reality. Perhaps you did the same. I went to my happy place and took a deep dive into the archives and photo pools of Flickr. There, I found these 1960s hippie-mod fashion pages from various romance comic books of the 60s and 70s. Some of them have empowering messages for women, some are still stuck in a “Mad Men” world, but mostly I just enjoyed them for their outrageous outfits that brightened up my day a little. I hope they do the same for you…
