Back to the Future


Love it or hate it, fashion's ongoing love affair with all things '80s is hard to avoid. While your personal flashbacks from that era may involve big hair and too much makeup, the current take on the trend is much more subtle.

To pull it off with style, think small, and incorporate touches like these into your Spring wardrobe:

* Gently faded to perfection, Merona's denim jacket adds a bit of rebel cool to everything from a close-fitting little-black-dress to a pair of relaxed weekend chinos ($24.99 at Target.com).

* A little bit Blade Runner, a little bit David Bowie, these sleek black Mossimo "Valera" peep-toe pumps combine an '80s-retro silhouette with futuristic pleather (on sale for $20.98 at Target.com).

* Nothing says "Material Girl" like oversize shades, and this pink-tinted pair from Mossimo (shown) offer a rosy outlook even on overcast days ($17 at Target stores).
