Reaganbusters Tee

Cool 80's T-shirt, Mens size Medium.

Some of my Earrings

Some of them are vintage, some merely vintage-esque. The homemade felt and terry cloth lady portrait is definitely vintage, though. It had a companion one but I only bought this one at the Alemany flea market in San Francisco, and always regret passing the other half by.

80's Sandals, Again

Color-blocked 80's sandals are awesome. These are for sale on etsy too.

Colorful 80's Sandals

Someone is selling these now, if you're interested.

80's Comic Print Shirt

I remember wearing stuff like this as a kid...actually, the pointy collar and tapered cut makes it seem more like a 70's shirt.

70's/80's Vintage T-Shirts

So 80's Boombox

Okay, it's not fashion, per se, but it is certainly fashionable.

Late 80's/ Early 90's Contempo Sweater

Kid's Strawberry Windbreaker

80's Jumper Dress

80's/90's Red Snakeskin Oxfords

I have these shoes, but mine are all black, and these were unfortunately not my size.

80's Bondage Top

I sold this on eBay recently...pretty awesome!

Insane Walrus-Print Kid's Bathing Suit

Truly frightening! On ebay now.

80's Jaws T-shirt

The image on the cover of Jaws used to terrify me sooo much as a child (huge bodies of water have always freaked me out.) I wanted this t-shirt! But it was kid-sized.

80's Boot(ie)s

These are all from this etsy store, though only the last ones are still for sale. The store is generally rather overpriced/trendy, but all these booties are awesome! I seem to be posting a lot of these types of 80's shoes; I think it has something to do with my feelings for Prince. But what doesn't???

Late 70's/80's Earrings

I should have bought these! So John Waters!

80's Versace Boots

These are sooo incredible! So gorgeously, perfectly tacky and lux- everything vintage Gianni Versace should be, right? If these were made today they would have stuck a huge platform on the front, so I think they are vintage.

Late 80's/Early 90's Bandage Dress

I hate the fashion of the mid 90's, but lately I have realized I love some of the early 90's fashion- the tight, stretchy fits and bondage-y details of these trashy bandage dresses truly are the best. I like the boldness, the obsession with bright colors and the huge gold jewelery. Check out Rhythm Nation-era Janet Jackson- so bold, so militant, so butch! Really the last gasp of 80's excess before everyone embraced saggy oatmeal sweaters, clunky loafers, and faded floral prints.

PS: Ohmygod, look at this thugged out photo of Janet here! This very 90's look deserves a post of its own. It reminds me of the coordinated photos girls would take at Sears in the 90's with tons of lipliner on. Anyway, I'll do some research on this 4 sure. If anyone has any photos like that, I want copies.

80's Booties

Worthy of Appolonia herself.
