Take for example this picture of her coming out of (what looks like) a hotel.

Katy Perry in 80’s inspired fashion

It’s like she came from another era and time traveled all the way to the present. Mind you, she looks really authentic in her colorful 80’s get up and high-cut sneakers. She may look like she doesn’t belong in the picture, but she definitely stands out. And the beauty of it is that she can carry the whole thing without looking funny.

To copy Katy Perry’s 80’s get-up,  make sure you have a pair of worn out acid washed jeans such as this pair from Joe’s Jeans (see pic below).

As for the high-cut sneakers, here are a couple of really cute options:

Diesel Memory W-10

Nike Dunk High 6.0
