We can finally turn the page on this long, cold winter. As we reminisce on the conclusion of wintry months, it’s hard not to drift our memory cache towards a time where it seems it was always springtime: The 70s. 

With bright patterns, floral headbands, short shorts, and a baby oil tan, the 70s spring vibes are unmatched. Cropped t-shirts, muscle cars, and a fresh Coke from the bottle to start an era of long afternoons and excellent radio songs. Your hair was always blonde from Sun-In and messy from the wind of that borrowed convertible, but the longer your locks, the cooler your aura. 

So as we channel those good vibes from the 1970s, unlocking a nostalgic memory of good times and absolute freedom, contemplate why we can’t have a similar story 5-decades later. Perhaps the flower power of the 70s is kept under lock and key, guarded by the dual-sentinels named Sonny and Cher, and heralded through the ages as the funkiest, chillest, and coolest era there ever was (or will ever be).
