Today's look is inspired by the fashion trends of the 1980's, think The Breakfast Club, Pretty in Pink, Sixteen Candles. This is also a super easy outfit to throw together if you are unsure of what to wear and have a ton of graphic or band tees in your closet. I found this gem of a tee featuring the late and great Muhammad Ali for $5.00 at Five Below. If you don't have a Five Below in your town, it's essentially a dollar store where everything in the store costs five dollars or below. This is actually a men's vintage style tee, but I wanted to dress it up to make it appear as more than a simple t shirt. For this reason, I styled it with these high waisted, black and white plaid pants from Oldnavy. I LOVE these pants so much! They are super comfy, have a good amount of stretch and can be styled in so many different ways. I choose to dress the pants down with a basic graphic tee, but look forward to styling the pants with blazers, faux furs and underneath a tuxedo dress. The best part about these pants is that they were only $1.97 at Oldnavy. Oldnavy has tons of items marked up to 90% off on their clearance racks, I advise you to check your local store! To accent the look, I added a black bandana neck scarf. In June, I showed how to tie a bandana into a neck scarf on The Mod Little Melanin. You can find neck scarves at Walmart for $1.00. I also added silver hoop earrings. The most important element of the look was the velvet fedora from Forever 21. It fully provided the 1980's inspired look. My shoes are one of the pairs of shoes I highlighted in my Spring Shoe Trends post in March on The Mod Little Melanin. I found these flats on Ego.co.uk for only $6.00 and was able to score free shipping. The website now has shoes up to 80% off in their sale folder. Expect to see these pants again on The Mod Little Melanin, as we make the transition to Autumn.
