Typical 80's Fashion

Here is a great example of typical 80's style. First we have the bi-level, which was hot then, and is nothing more than big hair on top and long locks in the back. The sides are cut above the ears and the strands are directed upward with lots of strong hold hair spray ( the kind that does not allow your hair to move at all ) and then height is achieved with a curling iron and more shellac-like spray. Evidence of mall bangs can be seen with the first layer laying downward with the second brushed up and back. This hairstyle is shoulder length and of course was better for fine hair to make it look thicker. Big dangly earrings were in vogue then.
You can't beat those sexy stripped jeans that taper down the leg and tuck into the white scrunch boots complete with side buckle. Black and white stripes add boldness that was essential for the true 1980s in-style look.
The pink sweater is covered in white bunny rabbits. A white cowl neck shirt is worn under the outerwear.
What a sight! I think yuck when I look at this picture, but these fashions seem to keep cycling around, so watch out.
