<p>Beatniks were about pushing against the conformity of the 1950s
and 1960s, and illuminating their lives with literature, music and
experiences. </p>
<p>Black was in. A black turtleneck sweater or boatneck shirt is
perfect for a beatnik ensemble. If you’re feeling daring, don a
black leotard with black tights -- you’ll radiate beatnik with a
straight black skirt. If turtlenecks and leotards aren’t for you,
try a black-and-white striped sweater. </p>
<p>Leggings or “cigarette” pants (think skinny black jeans) will
compliment the rest of the beatnik look. If dressing up “in the
cards”, pair a fitted black pencil skirt with black tights and
you'll be ready for a jazz club.</p>
<p>Beatniks weren’t concerned with posh jewelry or flashy bohemian
statement pieces. A black beret or simple pair of tarnished silver
earrings is ideal. No jewelry at all is okay too -- just carry a
book
of poetry as your accessory. Beatnik hair and makeup was
understated;
a simple black cat-eye or thin line of kohl liner is enough. </p>
