Here's a selection of pictures both from the 80s and from my friends' annual Hate the 80s night:

There might be some useful ideas in there. I have a kind of scarily big collection of 80s themed clothing now because my band has played the hate the 80s night 3 times now. My favorite look was LL Cool Lisa.
White shirt, collar turned up, vest, a tie, preferably narrow, maybe in leather, black pants, eye-liner, perhaps smoky purple eyeshadow.
Add the freaky upstanding bangs and it won't matter what you wear.
Here's some more 80s night pics. There's so many styles to choose from!

I want a Tab shirt!
Oooh, Teppy. Headband (stretchy cloth kind) worn as a sweatband, or an actual sweatband, for that matter.
drive-by to say hi to the Bitches, and thanks for the trip~ma from yesterday. We have returned, we survived, despite one near-death experience, and Mallory didn't start howling until we were almost home.
But then howl he did, so I'm off to take some aspirin and eat something.
I want a Tab shirt!
An even more impressive one:

Without blinking I replied, "Oh, yeah. It was Fetish Friday at Manray." Her look was priceless...like, "How did you know that? What has happened to my daughter?"
Bwahahahahahaha!!! Thank you, vw, that story made my day.
I wanna go home and ignore the world.
I need heavy duty finding~ma. Seriously.
Much finding~ma to you, askye!
So that's where Thunder Bay is! (Everything comes back to due South eventually.)
Yep! Well, one of them Due South probably meant Thunder Bay, Ontario, which is bigger and on Lake Superior. [link] But whenever DS referenced it, I liked to think about Fraser and Dief wandering the streets of Alpena.
