I had no idea 'leopard and green' was such a great combo.

I also love the fashion silhouettes from this era, very feminine dresses in flattering shapes. The retro and sophisticated style from this show can positively influence your home decor and fashion style. We had fun taking this shot, a bit of silliness pretending to be a 60s housewife with an unplugged iron! A few retro pieces will give you that great 60s vibe while still being modern and relevant. Try a retro 60s style chair, sofa, artwork, or lamp. Betty, Joan and Peggy from Mad Men Joan is my favorite female character in the show. She knows everything, is the go to problem solver in the office and always looks flawless.

It can create a fantastic visual impact that is bold, dynamic and fun for your outfits and home interiors. With the teal as the primary colour and adding complementary accessories in pink and yellow, it really makes the outfit pop. Was quite happy to find this similar interior colour block image with the vibrant teal walls and the pink touches. So how do you choose the colours? This doesn�t simply mean that you put two or three bold colours together, they must be complementary. Here is a great guide from style prompt on how to technically figure out which colour combinations work best together. As we�ve done with this outfit, you can also try colour blocking with homeware accessories such as cushions, vases or throws.
