So there's an 80s night at A14!

As you lovely ladies know I'm heading to A14 next week, next week! Bloody hell where did that time go? Anyhoo I've got an outfit lined up for the rock night, you know boots T-shirt....gormless expression *G*

But it's the 80s I'm having problems with, now considering I'm actually a child of that time you'd think it would be easy! but nope the well of inspiration has run dry, although I did dimly recall a lot of neon back in the day. With that in mind I rummaged about, and found a fairly eye watering orange T-shirt.

P1010412

God bless those jeans, they could come in handy for two nights, now all I need is some fingerless gloves and brightly coloured bangles and things. So then ladies what are you wearing?

That would work. I've got a pink tutu and leg warmers combo.

It even scares me ...

Ooooh that sounds like fun! Where did you find them? and do think that you could wear them with leggings? Hell I could even add pink ribbons to my boots!

On second thoughts I wouldn't want to traumatize people.

I actually had a long skirt that exact shade of orange in the 80's!!
And I loved my black lacy fingerless gloves and my leg warmers!!

Ahh happy memories! I wore some horrendous combinations back in the day, I've never been the most fashionable person. To prove a point I've developed a fondness for 1950's style dresses, my mum brought me an early birthday pressie.

So you can understand why I'm a bit bemused by the 80s night *G*

That dress is gorgeous, it's not a style I'd ever wear myself but I think it's lovely, very feminine and fun too!

I'm going to dig out some old photos of my 80's fashion disasters and I might even share them for a laugh!

I never thought I'd wear stuff like this, but it's great fun to wear to work. They have no idea how to deal with it, I'll have to see if there are any photos of some of my fashion disasters still exist.

Good for you! A colleague I used to work with wore 50's style and would get authentic items from various London markets, she always looked so cool! She was also married to Woody from Madness so was even more cool! (that's my only claim to fame - he's a lovely guy!)
