We love to watch Back to the Future and fantasize about where we go and what we would want to see in our time-traveling DeLorean. Here are five reasons why we are dying to travel backwards instead of forward:
How amazing would it be to spend a night in this kitschy motel? It would be fantastic to
spend a night at this place during it's 60's prime!

We are suckers for vintage advertising and if we lived during that era we would love
to surround ourselves with mid-century media!

Doesn't it seem like drinking from one of these bottles would be so much more refreshing?
Could someone pretty please invent a time machine already?? *Sigh* Oh, if only...

my mother will only drink coca cola from a glass bottle.
ReplyDeleteshe believes that its the only way for it to taste good! :P
i would have loved to own a car like that.. swoon.
If you have room in the backseat can I come too!? All of that would be perfect, throw in a trip to somewhere tropical so I can rock a retro bathing suit and straw beach bag while perusing fashion magazines of the moment and I'll be all set! :)
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing to think that cars so beautiful were an everyday sight! Great post.
ReplyDeleteI always think "Oh, I would love to live in the 60's. The amazing style, I could be a hippie, I could party with Edie Sedgwick & Andy Warhol in New York..."
ReplyDeleteBut it wouldn't really be that great, if you think about it. There was still a lot of sexism and racism. Being women, we wouldn't get to do as much fun stuff as we do now. We'd be sooo radical compared to 60's women.
The technology & medicine wasn't as advanced. I wouldn't want to get sick or injured in the 60's! I wouldn't even want to try to cook. There certainly wouldn't be very many vegan options for me!
I'm not trying to be a downer, though. I love the photos you shared and I love 60's style as much as you. I guess I'm just kind of a geek and I think about what it would realy be like if we could do stuff like time travel.
Not to mention- no blogging in the 60's! ;)
I am with you.. let me hitch a ride with you guys. xo hugs
ReplyDeletelove all the photos! i wonder if generations from now they will think the same of our culture?!
ReplyDeleteMan I love all those things. I find it interesting how I never lived in those times and still find an incredible connection to them. I'm actually jealous of older people who lived in those wonderful and beautiful decades.
