I was SOOOO entertained.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-era-challenge---alexis-secret-half-sister-escapes-the-80s#post-1473577 Mon, 13 Apr 2015 13:10:38 +0000 Suz 1473577@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow -- stunning! You make everything look great. And yes, you could indeed wear it. I think that modern hair, footwear, and a bag can go a long way to making almost anything look current. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-era-challenge---alexis-secret-half-sister-escapes-the-80s#post-1473549 Mon, 13 Apr 2015 12:00:20 +0000 Anonymous 1473549@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree that this looks wearable and not too extreme 80s. Especially like the shape of the jacket! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-era-challenge---alexis-secret-half-sister-escapes-the-80s#post-1473520 Mon, 13 Apr 2015 11:26:13 +0000 approprio 1473520@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's a beautiful suit!&nbsp;If I were lucky enough to find something that gorgeous, I'd have done the same and bought both pieces. </p> <p>You could definitely wear it now if you wanted.&nbsp;You could save the suit for special occasions and wear both pieces separately with other outfits. &nbsp;I'm quite sure there's something you could do with that jacket to make it wearable now. Maybe a pair of boyfriend jeans or those lovely Ann D pants you posted a while back?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-era-challenge---alexis-secret-half-sister-escapes-the-80s#post-1473448 Mon, 13 Apr 2015 04:27:54 +0000 Caro in Oz 1473448@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are lovely.&nbsp;Thank you </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-era-challenge---alexis-secret-half-sister-escapes-the-80s#post-1473431 Mon, 13 Apr 2015 03:45:16 +0000 anne 1473431@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can remember this look from the 80's. It is not so extreme as some of the looks we have seen- more&nbsp;the sort of thing I might have seen a mum wearing picking her child up from school after work. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-era-challenge---alexis-secret-half-sister-escapes-the-80s#post-1473425 Mon, 13 Apr 2015 03:30:32 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1473425@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like this outfit on you! It doesn't look like an 80s costume to me; I'd wear it now, for an evening concert or something suitably arty. I love the juxtaposition of the v-neck tee with the feminine shaping of the suit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-era-challenge---alexis-secret-half-sister-escapes-the-80s#post-1473406 Mon, 13 Apr 2015 02:12:56 +0000 Jaime 1473406@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks everyone! I must say I am a bit shocked with the suggestion that I might wear this today. I will mull that one over later.<br />Keturah, this was indeed a thrift store find. It was the pants that really interested me - I did think they might be wearable. But I couldn't just leave the matching jacket there all by itself.<br />Caro you have an open invitation!<br />Diane I don't remember watching Dynasty but the image of those catfights is firmly implanted in my head. How this is&nbsp;possible in the time before youtube I don't know.&nbsp;<br />Angie I should have thought of the big white sneakers! This challenge has been so much fun, thank you again! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-era-challenge---alexis-secret-half-sister-escapes-the-80s#post-1473338 Sun, 12 Apr 2015 23:50:10 +0000 catgirl 1473338@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You need to wear this all the time!&nbsp; It's so fantastic! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-era-challenge---alexis-secret-half-sister-escapes-the-80s#post-1473329 Sun, 12 Apr 2015 23:05:26 +0000 Sal 1473329@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Excellent rendition, and so current.<br />I was at school in the 80s but I had gold metallic pumps and also electric blue flats.....with a pointy toe. &nbsp;100% vinyl and very uncomfortable </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-era-challenge---alexis-secret-half-sister-escapes-the-80s#post-1473328 Sun, 12 Apr 2015 23:04:40 +0000 Keturah 1473328@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Okay... Oh my dear friend!! Please wear this every day! You look marvelous and chic, not one bit dated 80s. That suit was made for you. </p> <p>Great style era styling too!</p> <p>Was it a thrift store find? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-era-challenge---alexis-secret-half-sister-escapes-the-80s#post-1473325 Sun, 12 Apr 2015 22:55:31 +0000 Style Fan 1473325@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great look on you!&nbsp; Very 80s. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-era-challenge---alexis-secret-half-sister-escapes-the-80s#post-1473319 Sun, 12 Apr 2015 22:40:44 +0000 jackiec 1473319@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>SO fun!!!

And that jacket has some amazing detailing. Fantastic look! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-era-challenge---alexis-secret-half-sister-escapes-the-80s#post-1473261 Sun, 12 Apr 2015 20:30:06 +0000 Sharon 1473261@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, great look. Although this actually looks really current to my eye-the pants are just the right length to look very modern. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-era-challenge---alexis-secret-half-sister-escapes-the-80s#post-1473182 Sun, 12 Apr 2015 16:45:19 +0000 rachylou 1473182@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Alexis, look out! :D</p> <p>(You know, I think I'm ready for football shoulders again... ) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-era-challenge---alexis-secret-half-sister-escapes-the-80s#post-1473141 Sun, 12 Apr 2015 15:37:18 +0000 Angie 1473141@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>WOOOOOHOOOOOO. Go Team Dynasty. You are <i>gorgeous.&nbsp;</i></p> <p><b>LOVE.</b></p> <p>You nailed the '80s in the most wearable 2015 way, Jaime. WELL DONE.&nbsp;(Pointy toe pumps were worn with power suits in the '80s -&nbsp;or big white sneakers for the commute).</p> <p>Thanks for being a wonderful sport. I soooo enjoyed your era outfits.&nbsp;</p> <p>*happy sigh*&nbsp; </p> <p>(And don't think I didn't pad up my shoulders (to look like #1 below)&nbsp;over the weekend when I was out of my school uniform).&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-era-challenge---alexis-secret-half-sister-escapes-the-80s#post-1473104 Sun, 12 Apr 2015 12:32:08 +0000 Anonymous 1473104@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, so cool! You could wear this in 2015 too!</p> <p>Re-Dynasty..I used to love it when Alexis and Krystle had cat fights..trying to tear out hair etc. Super fun! Their make up always stayed perfect throughout!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-era-challenge---alexis-secret-half-sister-escapes-the-80s#post-1473101 Sun, 12 Apr 2015 12:11:39 +0000 Anonymous 1473101@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fabulous! I like the booties with the suit. In the 80's with a power suit they would probably wear pumps. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-era-challenge---alexis-secret-half-sister-escapes-the-80s#post-1473098 Sun, 12 Apr 2015 12:03:25 +0000 Sheila 1473098@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you look smashing in this ! Absolutely ! I would wear it everyday. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-era-challenge---alexis-secret-half-sister-escapes-the-80s#post-1473083 Sun, 12 Apr 2015 11:05:11 +0000 Jaime 1473083@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Especially for Angie, I put on this vintage 80s Miss V Valentino suit. Second picture is lightened so you can see the appliqued velvet leaves and shiny faceted buttons a bit better. Shoes are probably all wrong - what was worn with power suits?&nbsp;Anyway, I threw on the biggest jewelry I could find, puffed up my hair and away we go to wreak revenge on the Carringtons! </p>
