Reflecting on recent retro style
Well, it’s been a minute!
This year we’re keeping our “Thanksgiving table” simple with a fall picnic and fresh food.
A post on learning to run the race, even if you’re still figuring it all out…
Today’s post is about pasta. And unpredictability.
This ’80s/’90s Chillout playlist overlaps a little bit with Mirror80’s ’80s Sophistipop playlist, especially with selections like Swingout Sister’s “Twilight World”. If you’re a fan of all things New Order, you may recognize the photos in this post as a nod to cover art from Bernard Sumner’s side project with Neil Tennant and Johnny Marr: Electronic.
The holidays are almost here, we’re getting ready to feast…it’s just a decadent time of the year, am I right?! So I thought this was the perfect time to share another music video playlist. This one is PACKED WITH DECADENCE, from the golden set of Simple Minds’ “Glittering Prize” to the food-heaped table of INXS’ “The One Thing”.
It’s been awhile since I’ve shared a playlist, so today it’s all about retro summer fun! In some cases, the summer playlist vibe comes more from the videos than the songs, so get ready for some ’80s beachy style…
So Valentine’s Day is kind of a crazy holiday, right?! If you’re in love, awesome! If something’s off, not so awesome. Here’s a solution: dance it out. That’s why I created this Valentine’s Day playlist!
Today we’re taking it to the streets! The ’80s city streets at night, that is. I’ve put together a music video playlist featuring after-dark city settings, so get ready to roam with Pat Benatar, hop on a motorcycle with INXS, and decorate a mannequin-filled store window with Quarterflash.
Get ready for some smooth tunes! Today I’m sharing an ’80s/’90s Sophisti-pop playlist. The genre originated in the UK in the mid-1980s, combining elements of jazz, pop and soul. Yet some use the term “Sophisti-pop” to encompass a range of musical selections with a sleek, polished feel…
The holidays are coming, the holidays are coming! Maybe you’re reveling in the process of hosting your first Thanksgiving. Or maybe you’re counting down the days until a sparkling New Year’s Eve. As the weather gets colder and we hunker down for the holidays, here’s a little party playlist to lighten everything up…
Tomorrow is October 31st! What has everyone been up to this weekend? I’ve put together a YouTube Halloween playlist filled with spooky ’80s songs. When possible, I included music videos, so enjoy the retro visuals, or just let the tracks play in the background while you work or visit with friends. Wishing you and yours a righteous Halloween!
