When Big Beauty was Beautiful…

The 1980′s is one of my favourite fashion eras…I’ve said it once, but just for you I’ll I say it twice-gold and black, black and gold, oversized gold  hardware and cocktail rings-the 8th wonder of the world. In terms of beauty, loud, brash and big is definitely better. Ding! when you think your turkey is done, simply brown for another 10. I can’t think of a make-up brand that best encapsulates my beauty ethos more than Revlon. The golden age of the household American supermodel.. Cindy huge hair, glossy talons and eyeliner that would make your cat jealous. ‘Natural’ beauty is for flower gardens, and Charlie Dimmock (don’t get me started on women who don’t wear bras). If God wanted us to be plain, why would he have invented foundation, mascara and blusher?
