I Dressed Like It Was 1987

  • I styled 3 outfits inspired by the popular fashions of thirty years ago! From the hair metal rockers and groupies, to blazer-clad working ladies and teen pop idols decked out in acid wash jeans, I had a great time pretending it was 1987 and exploring fashion history through one of the most iconic decades - the 80s. Let me know what you think of my ~lookbook~ and if you want to see more of these!
    A huge thanks to Kayley Melissa for rocking out this 80s hair! You can check out her channel here: / letsmakeitup1

      @ICanChangeItLater 6 년 전 +89

      my parents were teens at the time, and bright colors and neons were HUGE trends in high schoolers and college aged people, but people underestimate the influence hair metal had on fashion. also, most people wore similar clothes to today’s; jeans and graphic t-shirts. My mother and I were talking about this earlier; trends cost money, which most people either weren’t willing to spend or did have. most people didn’t and don’t follow trends to the extreme (though all clothes are influenced by trends, like how the color and cut of jeans changes every few years) for price or insecurity reasons, so casual graphic and button up T-shirts with jeans were very common.
      neons usually came in through jewelry and accessories, again for money reasons. it’s a lot cheaper and cost effective to get a pair of neon pink earrings you can wear with most anything than a full outfit in neon

      Today could be your last day on earth. Have you repented and asked God to forgive you for your sins? Have you accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior? Heaven and hell are real. If you've never asked God to forgive you and if you never accepted Jesus as your Lord and Savior, then you'll die in your sins and be condemned to hell. If you repent and accept Jesus, then you'll go to heaven. Jesus doesn't care what you've done in life, everyone is a sinner in need of a Savior, which is Jesus Christ. Only Jesus can save you from the torments of hell. Jesus paid the debt for our sins when he sacrificed his life for us on the cross. We are cleansed and saved by his blood. We get to heaven by having faith in Jesus and his finished work on the cross. If you wanna be saved, then read the sinners prayer or anything that speaks from the heart. Be sincere. God is listening to you. He'll forgive you for anything you've done and accept you and give you eternal life in heaven because he LOVES you and always will 😊 Today is the day for salvation 😊 Jesus is waiting for you to accept his FREE GIFT OF SALVATION 😊 He'll accept anyone. No matter how bad you are 😊💖 Jesus is loving 😊💖 Turn to Jesus while you still have breath in your lungs because it'll be too late after you take your last breath. Your fate will be sealed. Its all your choice where you'll spend eternity. Either in heaven or in hell. The soul never dies. CHOOSE JESUS TODAY AS YOUR SAVIOR! 😊 He shed his blood for your sins 😊 We are saved by his blood and go to heaven by having FAITH 😊 Faith is trusting in him and his promise when he said: For God so loved the world, that he gave his one and only begotten Son (Jesus Christ), that whosoever believes in him (Jesus) shall not perish (go to hell) but have everlasting life (eternal life in heaven) john 3:16. Accept Jesus, repent and never lose faith 😊 God bless you 😊 Jesus is the ONLY way to heaven. Theres no other way. Jesus is God in the FLESH 😊💖 Praise the Lord

      Mismatched earrings were huge in the metal scene, which is what she was going for, often because multiple ear piercings that were more common in the metal scene too.

    The 1980s are my favorite decade fashion-wise (at least) because of how diverse and unique the non-work outfits were. Neon, pastel, tracksuits, acid-wash denim, huge earrings, high ponytails, big hair, mullets, jelly shoes, bucket hats, Converse, Keds, leggings, stirrup pants, leg warmers, slouch socks, chunky plastic necklaces, multi-color eyeshadow, etc.
    And all in various combinations, matched or mismatched! It's like the 'dress like your fantasy' Hippie style of the 1960s, only Up to Eleven! Totally tubular! :D

    I was born in '87 and a lot of these trends still trickled into the early 90s. Acid wash denim separates, crimped hair, denim jackets, shoulder pads, big scrunchies, high top shoes (I know some of those weren't mentioned, yet iconic nonetheless)... As kids we didn't get perms but we begged our moms to use the crimping iron on our hair once in a blue moon so we could have a fun 'do for a few days.

Though I've also tried a modern toned-down prom dress which looked pretty authentic. I feel the new-80s trend that came with Stranger Things passed too soon, now it's 90s-00s fashion again and I'm still too traumatized about having to wear it in my teens to enjoy the ride with genZ girls 😆Why couldn't they wait until their big sis or moms forgot how it was to wear massive shoes, veryyy low waistline on jeans, and belly-button revealing crop tops, before making it come back lol
