Alright ladies... I have a newsboy cap that I LOVE! Other than the typical boyish charms outfits you can wear with the cap, what are some great looks that can go with it? Perferably vintage or retro... but I dig modern looks too. :) Thanks!

Honestly Lolita, I had a friend of mine that wore hers with EVERYTHING. Skirts, jeans, modern or not and she looked adorable in it.

I have a black one that I'm planning on wearing with wide leg denim trousers,a black turtleneck,and red platforms.They look great with clean lines ala' 1960s beatnik.I tried it on with a cream boatneck sweater,black pencil skirt,and riding boots.Thought it turned out well.

My friend Mary-Marie, from England, used to wear a newsie cap with everything also. All through 1984, I'm not sure why. Anyway, I have a fun old pattern for knickers and jodhpurs you could borrow. They are high-waist, zip front 25" waist. Also a couple versions of side-button (open at pockets), baggy zoot-ish slacks, one 26 ¬? waist, the other also 25"
