For a look that screams "Simply Irresistable" for a fun, retro {80s} costume, put together an easy, DIY look based on the girls from Robert Palmer's classic videos for "Simply Irresistable" and "Addicted to Love." Great as a solo costume, with a suit-wearing male companion, or a bunch of female friends in matching costumes, this is a versatile look that's "simple" to put together. Things You'll Need * Hair gel * Red lipstick * Grey eyeshadow * Bronzer and large powder brush (for contouring) * Pale foundation makeup * Black scoopneck or tank dress * Red Belt * Black sheer pantyhose * Black pumps * OPTIONAL White guitar toy Putting together your Robert Palmer Girl costume Step 1: Pick up either a sleeveless black tank dress or a long-sleeved scoopneck black mini dress. These looks were represented in both videos an can be easy to find in a women's department. Chances are, you probably have a little black dress that already fits this description! Step 2: Put on a thick red belt around the waist of your dress. Step 3: Pull on a pair of sheer black pantyhose for a continued long, lean line and slip on a pair of plain black heels. Step 4: Grab some hair gel and slick your hair back into a tight bun. Step 5: Apply a layer of pale foundation to your face and neck, blending it well. Step 6: To acheive the "contoured" makeup look that was so popular in the 80s and worn by the beautiful models in Palmer's videos, dip your fluffy makeup brush in a light dusting of bronzer and suck in your cheeks. Apply in a diagonal fashion along these hollows, blending the powder from your temples/cheekbone until it hits about 2 inches away from your lips. Blend it softly so it doesn't look like a solid stripe. Step 6: Apply a layer of grey eyeshadow, black eyeliner and mascara. Step 7: For the finishing touch, slick on a glossy coat of red lipstick and you'll be ready to dance in no time!
