I don’t have to tell you for you to know that the 80’s are making a comeback. Years ago, I told my mom that the 80’s was the ugliest decade, and I had to call her yesterday to apologize and admit my wrongdoing. Looking at these 80’s icons now, I want to be all six of them at the same time. Luckily for us, we can! Here are eight 80’s looks that you can totally recreate now.
