Blondie’s 1983 video for “Rapture”, in which Debra Harry fancies herself a rap lyricist, could be considered corny by today’s standards. Her outfit, however, would look just as good now as it did over 20 years ago. Considering fashion is now deep in an 80’s revival, the look can be easily pulled off and would make for a rather stylish ensemble. The black tube top bejeweled with chunky gems is an obvious compliment to high-waisted dark shorts. Throw in a flimsy lace shawl, stringy, layered necklaces and understated heels, you get a look that is both simple and bold.

Watch: Rapture

I’m all for the 80’s comeback if you leave the shoulder pads at home, but this edit is so 80’s inspired I had to think twice before titling this post “Vintage Spread-Um”. There’s a grainy tonal quality to these photos that leads me to believe they have been sitting under someone’s bed gathering dust for the last 25 years. Perfectly vintage inspired or super dated? Check the gallery on cult to decide.
