You know that you are a "certain" age when you see the full cycle of fashion. When that style comes around again, you are definitely going into your fourth or fifth decade. In the 80's we thought it was rather cool to do the 60's retro thing -  Ray Bans were huge and then there were the B 52s. Ah, Rock Lobster ... The retro 60's are back, again. My 11 year old daughter has new glasses which would make Georgie Girl spin and my son watches Mad Men as if it's education! This DesperateAngloHousewife also watches Mad Men, but that's simply because she is perving at Don Draper! He really is the ultimate 60's retro hunk...where was he in the 80's during the last "60s re-visit?" Food also goes round in fashion. The cup cake, in all its pastel coloured glory, has received a huge welcome back and now, in France, the 60s Tropezienne cake is starting to edge itself back into our palate's favour with new modern flavours, etc. Flicking through...
