Summer of Love: Beaded, Tie-Dyed Accessories Shine On

By Roxanne Fequiere

Four decades after the fact, hippies are once again having their moment in the sun. From street style to fashion glossies, it seems tastemakers can't get enough of the whimsical, devil-may-care approach to fashion that once flooded the Haight and Greenwich Village. With temperatures on the upswing, it seems as good a time as any to finally break out your inner bohemian, and with this in mind, we've compiled a short list of accessories that fit the bill. While our picks are definitively more stylish than the home-spun, dip-dyed tees of the Woodstock kind, feel free to pair these with a caftan, bell bottoms, or nothing at all—and don't be afraid to stick that flower in your hair.

Above, clockwise from left: Foley and Corinna Tie Dye Mid-City Convertible Tote, $444, available at Neiman Marcus; Seed Bead Purse Pendant by Topshop, $40, available at Topshop; Reed Evins
Purple Tie-Dye Suede Ballet Flat, $289, available at Oak; Reed Evins Green Tie-Dye Suede Sandal, $292, available at Oak; Thomas Wyled Tie Dye Vest Top, $380, available at Net- a-Porter.
