I need to look like I'm from the 80's on Friday.

Please give me fashion advice (if we can call 80's wear "fashion") in the comments.

Ahhhh...

Some ideas:
-- an oversized shirt with large numbers all over it a-la Boy George on the Colour By Numbers album jacket
-- skinny ties and narrow lapels on pastel coloured suit jackets OR alternately HUGE lapels on double brested suit jackets
-- a perm. BIG HAIR. This is not optional
-- tights and jelly shoes
-- tights and slouch socks
-- off the shoulder shirt a-la Flashdance
-- fedoras
-- high waisted pants, acid washed jeans
-- black rubber bracelets
-- two different earrings
-- asymmetrical hairdos. Must be big. See third thing in list. Not optional.
-- black nylons and white shoes

I seem to recall leg warmers (can be made of a cut up old sweater, bandanas, black tights with big long sweaters over them, headbands, big puffy hair of course, dangly earrings, lots of lipgloss. striped tops. Good luck and please post pictures.

Loads of bright eyeshadow, heavy on the blush, big hair with a full bottle of hairspray, rubber bracelets, fingerless lace gloves, press-on nails.
Too-big shirt with leggings,leg warmers (Yes, they are easy to make with arms from a thrifted sweater) and high heels. Preferably pink.
