Vintage Dame is Desperate!

Desperate for the 1985 movie "Desperately Seeking Susan," that is! This iconic film starring Madonna & Rosanna Arquette, is a feast for style hungry eyes. There are so many amazing looks, but for today's post we shall focus on this one fab image of Madonna in neon and her girlfriend in a combo neon/vintage outfit. Let's get inspired by these two lovelies!

Neon tights by American Apparel, $14
note: you must have long-ish, slim-ish legs to pull off neon tights or leggings. For those of us with short Corgi legs, it is not a good look. And remember a little neon goes a long way!

Studded Boots by Pour La Victoire, $380 at Nordstrom. Perfect with black leggings and a black mini dress or tunic.

This insane necklace looks like something Madonna's friend would have worn in the movie. By Tarina Tarantino, $740.


Best Quote from the film: "Susan! My God, we thought you were dead!" "No, just in New Jersey!"
