Great, wearable 70s look too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-era-challenge-bonus-edition-wididntw-70s-and-80s#post-1472993 Sun, 12 Apr 2015 01:47:05 +0000 rabbit 1472993@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh good to know, your easter outfit is great. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-era-challenge-bonus-edition-wididntw-70s-and-80s#post-1472969 Sat, 11 Apr 2015 23:38:17 +0000 rachylou 1472969@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Omg. Side pony is the best! How could we all have missed that one?! And I'm *totally* impressed you fit into your clothes from the '80s... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-era-challenge-bonus-edition-wididntw-70s-and-80s#post-1472908 Sat, 11 Apr 2015 21:38:49 +0000 Diana 1472908@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rabbit, I have actually worn the skirt in an Easter outfit a couple of years ago.&nbsp; I should wear it more often.&nbsp; I actually quite like it.&nbsp; </p> <p>The side ponytail would have been better (and higher!) if I still had any scrunchies.&nbsp; A regular hair elastic just doesn't give you that 80s lift!&nbsp; I remember sometimes I used to use TWO scrunchies to make it really high.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-era-challenge-bonus-edition-wididntw-70s-and-80s#post-1472903 Sat, 11 Apr 2015 21:32:20 +0000 Angie 1472903@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You looked very happy and comfortable in the '20s rendition. No wonder it had a high happiness factor.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-era-challenge-bonus-edition-wididntw-70s-and-80s#post-1472902 Sat, 11 Apr 2015 21:29:22 +0000 Diana 1472902@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ha, I knew you'd like the Ra Ra skirt, Angie.&nbsp; I think my 20s outfit was my favorite of the week.&nbsp; It was so much fun to wear!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-era-challenge-bonus-edition-wididntw-70s-and-80s#post-1472901 Sat, 11 Apr 2015 21:29:08 +0000 rabbit 1472901@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh thanks for sharing.</p> <p>The 70's blouse is quite nice on you -- very awesomely period with the belt, but I think you are right, you should try wearing it now with some updates.</p> <p>You are too cute in the 80's power suit -- although I'm really glad that whole era of corporate dress is pretty much over. &nbsp; The silk dress is a great color on you.</p> <p>The frilly skirt! &nbsp;(the side ponytail -- flashback to Napoleon Dynamite, lol). &nbsp;Actually with a casual&nbsp;white top and sandals would that be too out of your style-lane to wear in the summer today? &nbsp;The print is pretty cool.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-era-challenge-bonus-edition-wididntw-70s-and-80s#post-1472896 Sat, 11 Apr 2015 21:19:46 +0000 Angie 1472896@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>WOOOOOHOOOOO.</p> <p>More '80s FABNESS.&nbsp;</p> <p>Side ponytail and Ra Ra skirt. <i>DEEEEEEEELicioulsy,</i> '80s. #3 is&nbsp;especially Killer because of the pointy toe pumps and bright pink tank. More authentically '80s.&nbsp;<b>LOVE.&nbsp;</b></p> <p><b><br /> </b></p> <p><b></b>And your boho look in #1 is elegant. You should WEAR that outfit for&nbsp;sure, Diana. Another amazing&nbsp;rendition.&nbsp;</p> <p>THANK YOU for entertaining me this week. You ROCKED the challenge and <i>all of them</i> were excellent. I have a soft spot for your '20s and '90s renditions, which were my faves. How about you?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-era-challenge-bonus-edition-wididntw-70s-and-80s#post-1472887 Sat, 11 Apr 2015 21:03:48 +0000 Diana 1472887@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thought it would be fun to show you some of my unworn Fashion Era outfits, featuring some actual vintage pieces, including some 80s for Angie. =)</p> <p>1: 70's boho outfit.&nbsp; The colorful woven fabric belt is actual vintage from the 70's, gifted to me by MIL a while ago.&nbsp; This Liberty for Target blouse is one of the few actual boho style blouses I still own - I was actually considering purging it because the ruffle is awkward but I kind of like it belted and it is back on trend now, so I think I'll keep it for now.&nbsp; Paired with my bootcuts and platform sandals; sorry it's not PPL, Angie!&nbsp; My darker bootcuts are longer but also less boho looking.&nbsp; I would actually wear this outfit when it's warm enough for sandals with a few tweaks - a less ALGO belt and better PPL.</p> <p>2: 80's power suit.&nbsp; The silk dress is from the 80s.&nbsp; The fit is kind of weird and it wrinkles like crazy so I rarely wear it.&nbsp; The color is awesome though!&nbsp; My fuchsia blazer is modern but it does have puffy, strong shoulders.&nbsp; Imagine my shoes are 3 inches higher!</p> <p>3:&nbsp; 80's frilly skirt!&nbsp; I have actually owned this skirt since the 80s.&nbsp; (Thanks to Rachy and her prom dress for reminding me of it!)&nbsp; I have absolutely no idea how I can still fit into it - my mom must have done some alteration magic to it at some point.&nbsp; I do not have a bustier style top to wear with this, so some camisoles are going to have to play the "underwear as outerwear" part.&nbsp; ;)&nbsp; Bonus 80s half-up side ponytail! </p>
