Last week’s gala episode of MY STYLE ROCKS was all about the 1980s. I love this era as it was all about bold, loud, and unapologetic fashion! Think big everything—from oversized shoulder pads to voluminous hair. Neon colors, metallics, and animal prints dominated wardrobes, while leg warmers and spandex became gym-to-street staples. Preppy looks with popped collars and designer logos contrasted with edgy punk styles, featuring ripped jeans and studded leather. Accessories were just as over-the-top, with chunky jewelry, gloves, and fanny packs stealing the spotlight. Whether inspired by Madonna, Michael Jackson, Dynasty or Wall Street’s power suits, the 80s were a decade where more was definitely more!
My look: Double-breasted wool-blend blazer with oversized shoulders, and matching green mini skirt, both by Balenciaga, black tulle gloves with GG motif
by Gucci, Mitza ring by Dior Fine Jewellery, wide chain bracelet by CHANEL, ivory oyster enamel mother of pearl brooch by Burberry, hoop-drop clip earrings
, classic Paris D’Orsay pumps with bow, metallic-trimmed leather clutch, black chiffon bow choker necklace, and wide-brimmed rabbit and cotton-blend felt fedora, all by Saint Laurent.
LoL, Sandra
