Grotty 80s fashion

**Trudes** · 21st August 2009, 09:20

Hey ladies,
I'm attending a hen's night in a few weeks and the dopey buggers have made it an 80s dress up thing. Anyway, I'm looking for a neon pink belt to complete my outfit (have some stuff already, but as it is at the moment I look like I could dress like that all the time... if I was a little fucked in the head, as opposed to "this is fancy dress"), does anyone have one tucked away in a "80s reject box" that I could borrow, or have seen one on their shopping travels? Thanks you sexy things.

I wouldn't be at all surprised if "House of G" (Glassons) or that skody teenybopper place Supre has them. Isn't 80's styles back in these days?

Don't forget to get some of these T

hehe, THAT is exactly what I need! I just went into some scodey store called "The Dollar Store" I think it is in J'ville and found me a really hideous neon pink top that is perfect! But I think a pair of neon pink mesh fingerless gloves would complete the ensemble!! Choice bro!!

You really are from Gizzy, that was the norm in the mid 80's at the age of 8yrs wasn't it?!

Me and my cousin used to go around and drink all the dregs in the bottles of DB Brown. And yes a few ciggie stubs made their presence felt

LOL yes, must have blue eyeshadow!!

Crimped Hair! I still have my hair crimper from the 80s, my girls use it now. Hmm and your outfit would look yummy with Stirrup pants!!!

Also for effect you could have a walkman as an accessory or a boombox!

we almost need to have our own KB 80s party, sounds like you guys are prepared!! I wanted to go punk, but it's too hard to spike my hair, but because it's long I can get the whole Farrah Fawcett thing going pretty easy, or tease the shit out of it.. maybe I'll go for a ride, that always makes it good and knotty!

Thats a good idea trudes I would be in for a 80s party! I would go for the Madonna look, lace gloves, slouchy t-shirt - Like a virgin!
