Are you sick and tired of clean eating Do you miss the days when exercise was less mindful and more fun And do you agree we could all do with a little more Lycra in our lives
The antidote to the modern malaise of serious health and fitness is a return to simpler times. In the 1980s, getting fit meant getting dressed to the nines in sparkling, skin-tight workout wear, teasing your hair or combing your moustache to its full glory, and shaking what your mama gave you to the top tunes of the day. It was fabulous, and it was fun.
This hilarious, pocket-sized book offers an earnestly 80s introduction to getting fit and fabulous. From diet and exercise trends and top fashion tips, to the places to be and things to be seen doing to flaunt what youve got, this collection of vintage photos and caustic captions will help you to become your most excellent self, 80s style.
At the age of 13, Ashley fashioned her first pair of leg warmers out of her dads socks, and spent the 1980s indulging in some of the most atrocious fashions of the period, from crispy yellow perms and blue eyeshadow to dangerously tanned skin and flashes of neon. She has since come to realise there are other ways to get attention.
