But thought it would bring a smile to your faces, especially if you remember wearing stuff like that too! I have lots of pics of myself wearing classic 80's fashion...LOL! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-is-this-vintage-80s-sweater-tunic-finally-back-in-style#post-412769 Mon, 29 Aug 2011 18:03:56 +0000 rachylou 412769@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ok, well, I'm in Northern California - so if you're not, you may want to just toss my opinion out - but I love it and I say keep it and wear it. You'd be rocking here. </p> <p>I do think it's calling for something at the neck - like a black tissue-thin turtle neck. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-is-this-vintage-80s-sweater-tunic-finally-back-in-style#post-412761 Mon, 29 Aug 2011 17:55:21 +0000 Freckles 412761@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sentimental from me too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-is-this-vintage-80s-sweater-tunic-finally-back-in-style#post-412753 Mon, 29 Aug 2011 17:47:09 +0000 Anonymous 412753@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Awww, little baby Natalie ice skating!</p> <p>I would give it a hug and toss. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-is-this-vintage-80s-sweater-tunic-finally-back-in-style#post-412740 Mon, 29 Aug 2011 17:30:22 +0000 Queen Mum 412740@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's not working for me either. I think I'd toss. I ditto what April says. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-is-this-vintage-80s-sweater-tunic-finally-back-in-style#post-412723 Mon, 29 Aug 2011 17:05:00 +0000 April 412723@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>GP, I think the general consensus is that although things come back around, they never look quite the same the second time. The fabrics are slightly different and the cuts are slightly newer. For that reason, I never hold onto things "in case they come back." It's just not worth the closet real estate they require. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-is-this-vintage-80s-sweater-tunic-finally-back-in-style#post-412716 Mon, 29 Aug 2011 17:01:30 +0000 catgirl 412716@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'd get some advice from Anna - I think anything this off-beat could be made to look cutting-edge if you really want to wear it, but you'd need a lot of chutzpah! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-is-this-vintage-80s-sweater-tunic-finally-back-in-style#post-412695 Mon, 29 Aug 2011 16:26:20 +0000 rute 412695@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>oh.. sorry.. it's not working for me... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-is-this-vintage-80s-sweater-tunic-finally-back-in-style#post-412692 Mon, 29 Aug 2011 16:24:04 +0000 Lisa 412692@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fun top, but I'd keep it as a sentimental piece. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-is-this-vintage-80s-sweater-tunic-finally-back-in-style#post-412632 Mon, 29 Aug 2011 15:10:37 +0000 modgrl 412632@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Take off the belt and wear a pendant necklace. That would help.... maybe best left in the sentimental corner of your closet... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-is-this-vintage-80s-sweater-tunic-finally-back-in-style#post-412627 Mon, 29 Aug 2011 15:07:38 +0000 goldenpig 412627@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kafe's post about styles going in and out of fashion made me wonder. I thought it was funny flipping through all the fashion magazines that were touting super bright colors as being in style this fall because it reminded me of all the neon bright clothes we used to wear in the 80's. And plus I just bought a pair of black skinny jeans. So is it finally the perfect time for this vintage 80's genuine acrylic/nylon purple and green handprint sweater tunic (that I saved as a memento because it makes me laugh) to make a reappearance in my closet? </p> <p>Here is the only picture I could find of me wearing the actual sweater, not styled that well--but I also have another one of me rocking a different sweater tunic with black skinnies and a RATE black belt. Sorry it's in black &amp; white so you can't see all the bright colors in their glory! And just for fun, me wearing the sweater now! Does it meet with YLF approval? Vote yay if I should actually wear this! LOL!!! (Insert tongue in cheek smiley!) </p>
