Hi everyone!
I have to admit I am writing this really early into the week because I have an extra busy week so I am getting a head start.
I was also super excited to write this post! My mum went down to London last weekend to meet up with her friends from University. After telling me about her weekend, all weepy eyed about leaving them again, she showed me some of the photos they shared with each other. This gave me inspiration for a Sunday Post! They went to Newcastle Polytechnic in 1985 to study Fashion and Marketing.
The pictures were so beautiful and very retro and I thought it would be lovely to share them with you all!

It's amazing to see some proper retro photos! Not only does it also make you feel like you wanted to be back in those "good old days" but the fashions back then can really inspire how you dress now! I have looked at ways in which anyone, in nowadays, could "get their style." Check out my vintage-style outfit inspirations below!

| Look like Sarah and let your outfit pop with neon coloured leggings! |
 |
| Strut it like Madonna in a velvet power suit and chunky jewellery like Debbie is doing here. |
 |
| Or stand out from the crowd like my Mum in her suspenders...? |
 |
| I have added some little extras in case you were still in the mood for inspiration! |
I hope these pictures and some outfit ideas have helped inspire you! They have certainly inspired me! Just by looking at these photos I have learnt a lot about fashion in the 80s and lots of ways in which I can apply them to my own fashion now!
