Nick from my LOYAL Class recently hosted an 80s party at his house. What you don't know is that Nick works for Ford A/V and owns a DJ company so I knew this was not going to be your ordinary "house party". Several of us girls got dressed up and did our hair before gracing the party with our presence. The night was a blast - full of dancing to many of the fabulous artists mentioned above.

This is the group that met at Kristen's house before heading to the party.
We had so much fun doing our hair and makeup!

A couple of the more "conservative" chics from the 80s.

Another group of fabulous women from the 80s.

Me and Kristen. Her shirt said, "I love Zack Morris".

Oh, Emily. I applaud her commitment to the 80s.
She put egg whites in her hair to get it to stick up like this. I gagged.
