The resurgence of 80s fashion makes me think we may be just as apt to regret 2010’s adaptations as we did bulging shoulder pads, stirrup pants and socks with pumps a la Borderline. Unless you’re an LES hipster, proceed with caution.

But I enjoy a little flamboyant 80s fashion in small, flashy doses and these recent finds fit the bill. I have yet to wear the sparkly round earrings—but I’m working up the courage. The bangle I was obsessed with, and when it sold, I was a bit crushed.  And the geometric earrings? How hot would those look with your hair in a high, slicked-back Robert-Palmer-girl bun?

It all takes me back a bit to childhood—waiting for my mom at the tanning salon or aerobics class (take your pick), with Pet Shop Boys on the speakers and a Barbie coloring book on my lap. *Sigh*
