Try this and google these names and look at their pictures it might help.
1980s Icons When choosing 1980s style makeup, look for icons of the 80s. Stars like Madonna, Brook Shields, Olivia Newton-John, and Joan Collins are excellent icons. Television shows such as Dallas , and Designing Women are fantastically fun to watch and reminisce. The 1980 were fun and exciting in a bold manner. The makeup is meant to enjoy. |

Big hoops in the ears, and blue or green on the eyelids. The WHOLE eyelids. Big chunky jewellery.
I can't believe that style is coming back. Ew ew ew. -------------------- The richest people don't have the best of everything, they make the best of everything.

ITA. I like the big hooped earrings and chunky jewelry though, I'm glad that came back. The eye shadow thing could have stayed in the past. -------------------- ~*Karen*~

I saw a ton of places this past weekend that have chunky bracelets. For cheap ones, though, I'd check out Walmart or Target. ETA: You can also go with just thin metal bracelets but lots of them. This post has been edited by coasterqueen on Apr 25 2007, 05:55 AM -------------------- ~*Karen*~

Just go to Claire's and you will be stepping into a time warp! I just had an 80's party and wore white hoops and a white beaded bracelet. I also wore purple eyeshadow and frosted lipgloss in a hot pink color. Lots of blush.

Oh I forgot that I also bought a big white belt from Walmart...in their sale section! I think I actually got the jewelry there too. Buy makeup from the dollar store. I bought my outfit from the thrift store. I found a big oversized hot pink sweatshirt and cut the top so it fell off my shoulder. That wrapped the belt around the middle since it was long. Then wore with leggings and a leopard print skirt. Wore spiky heels.

Just think Madonna in "Desperately Seeking Susan". That's the 80's look to me. Ugh.

we didn't wear socks in the 80s lol. we all wore those pointy black flats or jelly shoes or byway white canvas sneakers with no socks.. not even in winter
and you are forgetting one big part of the make up.. heavy black eyeliner. and you could add the colored mascara, bright red lipstick and white powdered face. how did we think we looked good?? -------------------- mama to Jacob, James, Jade, Kaleigh and Riley!!

Although you are probably already headed that way. My make-up was less about blue eyeshadow and more about blue eyeliner and blue mascara with some nice pink lips
