Okay, seriously - How much fun was it dressing up like I was from the '80s today??? I had long forgotten what a hoot it was to tease your hair, put on layers of jewelry and a shitload of makeup. When I walked downstairs, Amy said, "Oh my God, you should dress like this every day!" Not like I would....Been there, done that.
We even had a contest at work & holy shit, wouldn't you know it - I won. If someone were to look at me 22 years ago and tell me that the I would be wearing the same thing in the future for Halloween, and win as 'best costume', I would have laughed.
The blazer that I'm wearing? I bought that when I was 17 - I had to work every evening after school for 2 weeks to pay for it. Hey, it cost a lot back then to look that tacky.
My coworker, Amanda & I.
Amy & I at her work - she was in '80s mode too - is even wearing my jewelry.

Oh honey, you are ROCKIN' IT!
Love the frosted make-up. Why did we think frosting ourselves like pastries was a good idea?
When I saw you today, I wanted to go to Frankie and Johnny's. Remember that place? lol. "T & A everyday!" woo hoo
You looked great, btw.
Those of you who didn't know Darlene... she truly looked like that every day in the 80's.
Why,didn't I save my leopard jeans?
oh, and you can't see her electric blue eyeliner in the pics.
Mahvelous, Dahling!
I found my black eyeshadows and did my eyes up. My mom commented, "oh, gawd. You're not going goth again are you?!?"
Happy Halloween!
Cris~
Ah, the 80's! You brought back some great memories. I suddenly felt like breaking into song...Like a Virgin...touched for the very first time... I bet people that owned stock in hair spray, made a ton of bucks back then.
This is further evidence that I should keep that dress that I bought my freshman year in college.
You can fit into something you wore in high school?!!
Thanks, guys - too much fun!
