The "Get It Right 'Vintage 80s Guide
Well it is official, the eighties are back with a vengeance! Love it or hate it, we guarantee you succumb at least one eighties trend at the end of the year!
Sure you can pick up some eighties-inspired fashion from a high street chain or designer label but why not pull out all the authentic (and save a packet) but buying original vintage?
With a range of vintage to choose from, from the sublime to the ridiculous and everything in between, how can you ensure that you are very good? In this guide we explore the eighties trends to follow and how to wear their best …
Acid Wash Denim
Very Agness Deyn, acid wash denim is back and punchy as ever. We have seen some glorious mini dresses, skirts, shorts and ripped jeans, all can be found in original vintage form. And if you're handy with a singer, you can find some vintage acid wash jeans and create your own hot pants or mini for the summer. Not to mention jackets, keep them trimmed and fitted blazer or shape for a look that slap on the trend.
Batwing
Available in both long and short sleeves, the Batwing made a few appearances in recent years, so if you're lucky you may already own. This time it's all about the color, pattern and detail. Stripes, dots, and nudes Material can certainly shines inch thick and knitted fine and silky. The ever-flattering batwing can also be used in multi-layer look, perfectly versatile.
Fat Color
Neons are fab and oh so hot, but while it is clear, block and restrained in any way, you're right where to go. These trends are bound momentum as the summer approaches to build, buy now. Colliding is encouraged so creative. We talk orange dress, heels cerise and lime accessories – but if you're brave enough to perform this operation not to mention the St. Tropez!
Sequins
We have had enough of the doom and gloom, so glamor is lit us all feel extra special! Sequins make an appearance on many different looks – jumpsuits, blazers and one shoulder dresses. Find many sequins eighties vintage gems, or just buy something and get change!
Zips
Not for wimps, zippers are mega mega eighties and trashy! Best in black, look for tops, dresses, jackets and dresses with oversized, contrast color zipper detail. This is a trend that should be kept in isolation, do not mix multiple zipped apart if you want your chic factor account.
Dot
Think Grease, Fame and Barbie. Dots are fun and easy to find prints that can be mixed, matched and worn in any color combo. The best preserved of dresses and skirts, but on some spicy little blouses, polka is more tongue in cheek than the first time. For extra punch, try oversized dots and sleek tailoring summer go for small ditsy print.
A shoulder
The one shoulder dress will you in the blast outside fashion stratosphere and beyond. Given the recent red carpets, this look has just the right balance of sex appeal, glamor and class. For great holiday try to wear a micro mini dress one shoulder or a printed shoulder pack to play. To highlight of the evening wear chic, go all out for a simple floor length dress in shiny fabric.
Jumpsuits
Never to be confused with the (very naff) catsuit, you must be big and blousey jumpsuit. Shoulder pads or overworked shoulders are good, buttons are big and drawstrings and sequins add glamor and grace. Make sure your jumpsuit to be learned in the waist and hold trousers wide, not tapered. For summer, go for a sweet and sexy short playsuit (many beautiful prints available) This trend can be portable right through to 2010, so invest wisely. Or just buy enough to feed you to set all year! No decent vintage boutique or Web site will be without this all-in-one so precious looking to get … NOW!
Blazers
If you do not already own one then you need to shop it! The perfect item for your outfit or friend that size rim. A male form is preferred, tartans and checks are sharper and the big buttons are a must! Dark colors will be more versatile, but do not be afraid to bright white, blues or try ruby red!
So there we have it, our guide to wearing different eighties trends correctly. That rebirth can go horribly wrong, but with a little guidance they can work in your favor. And remember, the best thing about buying vintage is the reassurance that your the only girl wearing that outfit. And we all know how great that feels ….

What is your favorite make-up and frequent watch?
What are the cosmetics used to look to achieve this look? Well, I love the Dollie & barbie but not the exaggerated type. Normally I use Coral & peachy colors for eye shadow. Pink blushers and nude lip gloss.
I think this is a tough question to answer, but your answer to my question so thanks and I'll try to answer yours. I think it really depends on who you are and how you look. Girls dark eyes and dark hair look really great with mascara and eyeliner as it really blends well with their characteristics. girls who are blond or light hair and co loured blue or green eyes would find it harder to look the same get when it comes to mascara and dark eyeliner (I have blond hair and blue eyes and I find it hard to look good with darker colors). I think the colors and shades that you describe are more and more girls decision to look more natural, use nowdays. I use very little foundation-one that matches my skin color, peach and light brown shimmer eye shadow and nude lip gloss like yourself. it illuminates the face and Brong out good qualities of the face, while the natural look hope that helped
