80's POP STAR
Perfect look that is as fun as it is fashionable right now.  The 80's are back!!  Channel you inner Cyndi Lauper with this tubular and fabulous dress from TWIRL!!  Add some big hair, lace fingerless gloves like these that I found on Etsy and some fantastically radical make-up like the one in this YouTube video.  Bonus this dress is perfect for a fun night out with the girls, a formal or just for fun.  Wear it with a biker jacket and boots or a cardigan and heels for a delicate way to bring the 80's style back without being an 80's pop star.
