Disco Back from the Dead

With stars like Madonna sporting the Farrah Flip
hairdo and off the shoulder tunics coming back in
style, it appears that disco has made a revival.

This comes as no surprise…after all the 80’s look has
been around again for nearly five years. Seems as
though stylists and fashionistas are hanging up their
day-glo brights and getting their groove on in gold,
platforms and furs.

Not ready to make a full-on disco expression?
Incorporate a few pieces at a time, and don’t
overload. African-American girls should go au natural
because ‘fro’s are hot again, if worn in the right
context.

Even if you can’t afford to buy a few trendy disco
inspired pieces, take a look at your wardrobe—you may
already have some key items. Look for:

Gold hoop earrings (large)
Bell bottoms
Platform espadrilles
Platform dress shoes
Gold Accessories
Fur-lined jackets
Tunics
Handkerchief tops


Tip: Dust off your curling iron and make like Madonna
for some hot flippy layers around your face for a new
look this winter.
