Default Need Ideas...

Got invited to a birthday party and they are doing it with an 80's theme. Basically gotta go dressed like it was the 80's. I know the usual "MADONNA Like a Virgin" look, but I am looking for something a little different. Also need ideas for a guy.

Thanks!

Ass tight jeans with leg warmers and HUGE hair.

If I was a guy going to an eighties party, black patent leather pants, white shirt and flower pot on my head. DEVO look.

Hot pink t-shirt, pastel suit with rolled up sleeves and upturned collar, and woven loafers - no socks.

members only jacket for the guy. You probably work with someone who owns one you can borrow. I see one every now and again...

Oh, and if by chance you were in high school during the 80's, carry along a trapper keeper to the party if you can find one.

Don't forget to turn your collar up. I think some people used to wear two "alligator" shirts (one pink and one white or something ghey) and turn both collars up.

When was Acid wash in? I remember pin stripe jeans were neat at some point (i was too poor to have any though).

how about the "flock of seaguls" type hairstyle? Make sure to douse yourself in some of that shitty green "polo" cologne too.....

Maybe you could rent or borrow someones chevette or K-car?

"used to" my ass. I see this now way more than I'd like to. The 80s are creeping back and I hope someone stops it.
