Sheer shirts rock...again!! Yes, the 80s 90s trend is coming back big time.  If you're not 20 something, you can wear a tank/cami underneath for more coverage.  I've been picking them up by the handful at my local thrifting haunts but you can do a search on eBay for them as well.

All these eighties pieces are making me think of Nagel posters, so much so I'm considering bidding on one.

Though much more 70s than 80s, Marc Jacobs Spring 2011 runway model's make-up was Nagel inspired.

Must Have eBay St/deal

In my conversations with people about where I get 75% of my wardrobe (eBay) I hear many people say to me that they "have no luck" on eBay.  I think "How can this be?!?" So starting today, I'll be listing some of my favorite cheapie eBay finds and how I would style them.

Here are two dresses from Retro Gal Vintage.  They have a similar boho prairie flavor.  Some key words to type when looking for dresses like these are:

Hippie

Boho

Liberty print

Floral

Prairie

70s

80s

Gunne Sax

These dresses have a very similar feel to what D&G, Anna Sui and Alberta Ferretti showed for Spring 2011.

To bid on this dress click here.  I would wear this with some cute 80's pointy oxfords and cross body bag, my hair in a messy side pony.

Option # 2 from the same seller is this super cute maxi dress which incorporates Spring's white and floral trend.

 I would wear this with a 30's vintage necklace, beat up Frye boots  and crocheted beret, my hair in a loose braid and carry a cute vintage bucket bag.
