Hi google it and you get loads if ideas, I would say bright colours, square sharp patterns! Good luck xx ImageUploadedBySalonGeek1394527786.763573.jpg
 
You can look at 80s fashion (particularly Cyndi Lauper and Madonna haha) and try and replicate some patterns you see on their clothes and accessories. Or you can look up old magazine ads for cosmetics from that decade for color scheme ideas.

Do you have the new Irresistible Neon nail shadows? I reckon they'd be perfect for 1980's! xx

Oh how we loved our neon back in the 80's! I think you can't go wrong using the neon shadows as has been said, especially if they going early/mid 80's ala Madonna in her Holiday period. I had neon everything, from sloppy one shoulder jumpers and leg warmers to long beads and fishnet finger less gloves.
 
Oh not forgetting neon plastic earrings 😱xx
 
Anything neon, bright bright red or goth black lol the 80's were fab but god help us if the fashion returns!!!
 
i think leg warmers should make a comeback.

Thank you for your suggestions im off to have a play x

MoYou do a Timetraveller range of stamping plates, and they have a couple of 80s themed plates. I have one, and the images look great over neon's.
