Mustardsatchel

For an instant shot of sixties looks, a well chosen colour palette can often be key. This Mustard Contrast Satchel from Topshop uses a great pairing of vintage shades in a leather look bag that has plenty of retro appeal.

The tapered, sloping sides add a sixties look to the classic satchel, creating a shape that has all the sharp and angular appeal of the decade's aesthetic. The use of mustard and rich brown faux leather together adds to the impact of a design that's instantly recognisable as a nod to timeless vintage looks.

It's available now from Topshop for £32.

Thankfully we now have modern retro choices like this Ginger Slinky Cape Dress from Topshop Maternity to keep you looking chic at all times.

The cape style dress has the draped glamour of a seventies frock with the practicality of late maternity clothing built right in.

With the trend for nude shades across the catwalks in Summer 2010, the use of these neutral shades is still easy to find on the high street. That's ideal for those looking for a 60s retro aesthetic, with camel shades providing an equally mod alternative to monochrome colour schemes.

This Flannel Button A-Line Skirt from Topshop takes advantage of mid-sixties inpiration well, using a simple a-line shape and high waisted cut. The tab and button details provide some military influence, while the neutral shade of both allows for the subtle femininity to stay intact.

Baseball

While many of the womenswear trends inspired by 1950s America are ultra-feminine – from housewife demure to pin-up girl vamp – there's much great style to be plumbed in the menswear of the time. This Baseball Jacket from Topshop takes a great frat boy look and gives it to the girls.

The jacket is a classic piece of Americana, with banded collar and cuffs serving as a contrast to the soft jersey jacket. Adding the boyfriend-jacket element of the 1950s high school style, this simple piece of outerwear is ideal for a great variety of fifties looks from preppy girl to biker girlfriend.

We've featured plenty of little black dresses with a decidedly fifties and sixties bent on Retro To Go, but many often opt for a vampy fitted cut. For a more youthful, mid sixties choice this Ponti 60s Shift Dress from Topshop is a worthy contender.

With a simple and effective A-line cut, the silhouette is both feminine and classic. Bell sleeves and a short mini-style hemline add some unmistakably sixties details, while a plain black colour makes this a truly versatile retro choice.
