So I was going to dress up as an owl but time got the best of me and I wasn’t able to make my costume. Then at work some of us decided WEDNESDAY (two days notice, mind you) that we should all come to work as female singers from the 1980’s.
Guess who I picked?
Your only hint: Think short hair.
Emulating
The Real Thing
I probably didn’t need to practice her dance moves. But of course I did.
Pictures forthcoming.
Here you go! We’ve got a Debbie Gibson, a Madonna, a Cyndi Lauper* and an Olivia Newton-John.
*Cyndia Lauper totally called in sick. That beyotch.
Sizzle Says 
Awesome. Can’t wait to see a pic of all of you together. Great idea!
Cyndi Lauper?
Great idea and you totally look like her!
Love! You look fabulous!
We are young! Heartache to heartache we stand! No promises, no demands!
(You even have the pout. Totally awesome.)
Awesome! You really rocked it. Well done!
AWESOME!
That. Is. Awesome.
You rocked the 80’s makeup. Did you already have that fabulous shirt in the closet? And are you wearing leggings?
You look AWESOME. Seriously.
You look like someone just told you you had to eat a bug.
Just so y’all know it took me 50 tries to get that photo of me because it felt so unnatural to not smile. AND if you worked in my office you would be subjected to my Love is a Battlefield dance repeatedly.
Nice work! Too bad you guys don’t have a karaoke stage at work – you could do battle of the bands.
Wicked.
I read this in Google Reader. And before I scrolled down to see the ral person, I guessed Pat Benetar. You channel her well. Could you include some video of those dance moves, please?!?
Yaaaaaay! Yay. Yahooooo!
Niiiice!
Hit Me With Your Best Shot!
Why Don’t You Hit Me With Your Best Shot!
Hit Me With Your Best Shot!
Fire Away!
Ahem. Sorry. I get carried away sometimes.
😛
Haha I LOVE it!! 🙂
Awesome! And I knew who you were before I even saw the second picture. Is a video post of this coming up in the future???? I’d love to see!
Amazing to say the least. You’re so pretty!
Love! Love! Love!!!
Fantastic idea and marvelous execution!
If the other girls look 1/2 as good as you do . . wow!
I love it! Can’t wait to see photos of all of you!
This is like, wayyyyy more awesome than the owl. 🙂
I miss dressing up for work. 😦 One of the little perks of non-profit!
FIRE AWAY! You hit the nail on the head! Can’t wait to see your officemates.
Can you please post a video of you doing the Love is a Battlefield dance number?! Because that would be super…
omg, that top is AMAZING. the sleeves? LOVE!
oh you ladies look fierce, love it!
Love that shirt is kind of reminiscent of Hit Me with your Best shot.
That stripey shirt that is making my boobs look entirely too shiny and ginormous? Is actually a leotard. OH YEAH.
Love it! It’s funny, the outfits don’t look too ridiculous since the 80s are coming back.
Oh god do I wish I worked with your crew.
But Olivia is a bitch wearing that get up with her cute little “Let’s get physical” figure.
Just saying.
Very cool.
Next year I say you go as a Go-Go’s era Belinda Carlisle, green hair and all.
You look awesome!!
Steph
Aw, if only Tiffany had been there.
You make a great Pat. xoxo
I totally would have been Tiffany.
Great costumes!
Wow, I would never have recognized you. Nice look.
This? Is tremendous. Words cannot convey my adoration for Pat Benatar. Love is indeed a battlefield, Pat. Well said.
