Happy Easter Weekend

April 18, 2014 by Kate Leave a Comment

Hi Everyone! Just wanted to wish you a wonderful Easter weekend. If you’re having people over or assembling some delicious goodies and treats to share, the pastel-infused images above should help you celebrate. Remember, you can’t go wrong with candy colors…and candy sprinkles!

A Pastel Party–with Donuts!

March 26, 2014 by Kate Leave a Comment

For our spring Retro Foodie shoot, we present a Pastel Party featuring coffee, donuts, confetti, sprinkles and loads of geometry! While this ’80s-style party concept would be ideal for a weekend brunch, we enjoyed the goodies as an afternoon snack. Nothing like beating the mid-day slump with a little caffeine and sugar. Read on for all the sweet details…

New Pastel Decor with an ’80s Design Twist

March 4, 2014 by Kate 4 Comments

Have you noticed the recent pastel, geo and marble trends? Yes, they’re everywhere. But before you dismiss them as passing fads, we need to celebrate one key fact: all of these trends have brought ’80s interior design to the forefront. This is a BIG DEAL! When I first started Mirror80, 1980s fashion was huge. But 1980s interior design was nowhere to be found. Except if you could afford the really high-end stuff. Now that ’80s motifs and colors have hit the mainstream, we can all enjoy them in a new way!

Happy Friday, Everyone! Did you have a nice Christmas? Today I wanted to share one of my favorite holiday gifts. Actually, it’s a gift my hubby and I purchased for our cat–the Kitty City Jungle Gym! We actually spotted this fabulous find on a trip to Target well before the holidays, and we instantly knew this was “the gift” for our little pride and joy. True selling points: the cozy cubes, the pastel motifs, the black netting, and the general feel that this feline playground was confiscated from the set of Saved by the Bell. You know, if the main characters had been cats…

Mirror80 is a blog that celebrates the intersection of modern design and retro style. I'm Kate, and I enjoy exploring the look and feel of the "recent retro", with a focus on the late '70s through the early '90s. Welcome to Mirror80. Read More…
