Happy Wednesday everyone!!! <\/strong><\/p>\n

I had to break up this post into two so that I wouldn’t overwhelm you with ’70s fashion<\/a> facts & fun! Monday’s part 1 of ’70s celebrity fashion icons<\/a> reviewed Diana Ross, Liza Minnelli, Debbie “Blondie” Harry, Jaclyn Smith, Bianca Jagger and Pam Grier.<\/p>\n

This post reviews even more ’70s sensations, including Barbra Streisand, “Ace” Frehley, Twiggy, Joan Baez, Jane Birkin & David Cassidy. I took today’s post ONE step further by comparing the described fashion icon to a present-day star.<\/p>\n

As I dig deeper into the influences of past famed individuals, I’m seeing just how their style and their sense of self has both directly and subconsciously inspired that of today’s most talented in film, music, TV and modeling.<\/p>\n

How many times have you channeled your inner “Tyra” or tried to take your style up a futuristic notch, thanks to inspiration from a new Lady Gaga video or performance?<\/p>\n

The beauty of this world is that creative inspiration rests within when we open our eyes and hearts to it.\u00a0Even when walking the streets of a dilapidated neighborhood, I try to see beauty in its graffiti and boarded up windows. When stuck on a stalled subway train, I admire what people are wearing around me to think “beyond the box” of my own fashion default.<\/p>\n

Looking to celebrities of the past is a great way to turn that autopilot fashion switch OFF and turn ON style spontaneity.\u00a0Keep reading after the jump for tidbits on the who, what and how of ’70s fashion icons, and let me know in the comments who [or what!] your latest fashion muse is!<\/p>\n

I’ll be posting all of the pictures below in an album on the Facebook fan page<\/a> so that we can vote for what we like most: the “vintage” or the “modern” celebrity in these compare & contrast shots! Check out the album now<\/a> to join in on the voting and get the conversation going.<\/p>\n

As always, thanks for reading Sammy Davis Vintage and see ya’ll tomorrow! ;-) <\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n
