I think 60's on the tops and maybe early 70's on the vest.

I love those beaded shell tops! I remember my mom wearing them for really special nights out. I couldn't wait til I was old enough to go places where I could wear those~
 
Mid to late '60s, usually made in Hong Kong (or as your label euphemistically puts it "Made in the British Commonwealth").

They're usually quite squarish, so if you've clipped them back for the photos, I encourage you to let them swing free to show their true shape. Otherwise you might get a disappointed buyer complaining because they don't hug the figure....of course, if yours do, I apologise :)

This ebay listing shows one similar to your last one. It's nicely photographed too.

Agree with 60s on the tops and 70s on the vest. Very cute, all of them! The first is very "go-go" looking, which at one point was popular on eBay; I sold several pairs of go-go boots at nice prices.
