FALL TRENDS: THE 80'S

The 80's:

With more color and style explosions than any decade to date, the eighties look still delivers playful styles - and where better to get the wild style than with authentic thrift pieces?
They didn't just have great music but also underwent more style explosions than any decade to date and Savers is your one stop shop to get the look. Authentic vintage dresses work perfect with modern accent pieces. Dress up ordinary flats with a retro vibe by adding jeweled accents. Give an old-school jumper a modern day edge with easy alterations. Shorten the hem line, pair with cropped tights and accent with playful costume jewelry. Add embellishments to a simple skirt – cut bows from another pattern and affix with fabric glue to glam up garb. Color block your look by pairing together a few bright vintage finds – or DIY with fabric dye to inexpensively transform any piece into an eighties homage.
