I had an espirit outfit I loved beyond the telling. It was the only bits of name brand clothing I owned, which reinforced the love. The outfit was white capri pants with neon paint brush strokes at random places with a matching short sleeve shirt/jacket (with velcro) and a tank top. Which I wore with jelly shoes.
I tell you I have this theory. It goes where, you're the one who's not my sister. Cuz mom adopted you from a shoe box full of baby howler monkeys, and never told you cuz it could hurt your delicate baby feelings.

Aimée, what are you doing for shoes? because neon Converse-style hightops would be perfect too! (We never actually wore the Converse-brand ones. We got the $7 versions from Woolworth's. The bobos hightops as it were)

Shit's all sorts of different now.
I was thinking of these: [link] since I already own them.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Those aren't very 80s, at least I don't remember them then. Ankle grannies, yeah. But what I remember most is the high-top sneakers in pastels, and flats or heels to show off the leggings.
Also very 80s would be a square-shouldered, ass-length jacket over leggings, with no shirt under the jacket. A shoulder-duster earring in only one ear.

I had totally forgotten but at my middle school for awhile it was all the rage to wear blue lip gloss made from mixing clear lip goss with blue eye shadow. I have no idea how it got started but all the cool girls had blue lips.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Also very 80s would be a square-shouldered, ass-length jacket over leggings, with no shirt under the jacket.
Also with the sleeves rolled up.
