Love the 80s pic... I so wanted to have a haircut like that, but my hair was too short. All my friends had it.

Because that looks exactly like the 80s style I remember.

Rachylou, I did feel good in those outfits, they did seem to have positive energy.  Columbine, I loved the big hair of the '80's! rachylou on "An 80's inspired outfit and a few WIW's" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/an-80s-inspired-outfit-and-a-few-wiws#post-1477227 Mon, 20 Apr 2015 00:04:33 +0000 rachylou 1477227@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ The outfits have real energy.

After work last Friday night, I threw on my Gap slim straights and 80's style oversized blazer and deemed it JEE (Just Eighties Enough). For some reason this reminded me of Michael Jackson, so the soundtrack is my favorite MJ song, Man in the Mirror. And just for kicks and giggles, pic 2 is me circa 1988 in skinny jeans and an oversized denim jacket. You can't see my socks in this pic, but they are two different colors (pale pink and pale green, if I remember correctly). Pic 1: Oversized blazer - Bar III, Macy's, jeans - Gap Resolution Slim Straights, top - Zara. Jeans and top are navy, blazer is black tweed Pic 3: Super matchy! Scarf - Zara, sweater - Loft, purse - Macy's, capri's - J Crew Pic 4: Jeans - Gap flares, blazer - J Crew, top - J Crew Factory
