Popular Eighties Costumes

A 1987 Popular Girl: Do you remember these girls? They were the ones that got all of the attention everywhere they went. So, to emulate that look, all you need to do is find a long sleeved shiny metallic shirt that has small buttons on the shirt tail. This shirt should be long enough to hang over your hips and should have a brocade print. You can also wear this shirt with or without a big belt that will hang off.

Next, you have to find a long straight skirt that has a slit up to at least half way its length at the back. You will also require 3 different colors of knee high socks that coordinate. You can tie the outfit off with ankle high granny boots; wear various metallic bracelets, and a variety of lengths of necklaces. You are also going to need to have long hair that you can pull off with a wig that also has short sides and bangs. These bangs are going to need to be teased into a waterfall style and styled with colored mousse.
