In fact, a lot of us women are known to be spending hours of trying to match our retro getup and shoes. However, it’ll be easier if we try to picture what the retro glam really looks like. For instance, think about accessories, like the bigger our sunglasses are, then the better it is when it comes to retro glam, and when it comes to shoes, classic peep toes pumps with loud designs and bold colors such as fire red are always in. Like the Draven Bettie Page “Fabulous Pump”. Being a peep toe style pump, it adds a touch of sexiness while the polka dots oozes with that retro vibe. Extra confidence, sophistication and playfulness could easily be displayed with the help of this shoe, thanks to its 3 1/4″ candy-wrapped heel.
