Flashdance

When you're dancing, does everyone look at you like you're dancing like you've never danced before (but in a good way)? Oh, they do?

Wow, what's that like? Whenever we dance, people look at us like they aren't sure if we're having an allergic reaction to something and they need to call an ambulance, or if we really are just terrible dancers.

Being a good dancer sure takes a lot of hard work. We wish it were as easy as looking like we're good at it, because we've got that down to a science!

Want to know our secret? Toss on some leg warmers and an old cut-off t-shirt over your tights, and make sure you're wearing our awesome, exclusive Flashdance Wig.

It's a curly, full bodied, 80's-riffic hairstyle that you won't find anywhere else, and will have you saying "What a Feeling!" as you're dancing like a Maniac!

One day you're an average everyday eighteen year old steel worker who lives in a warehouse that has a perfectly shabby chic appeal and the next you're a auditioning for the local dance company. Hmm, most people would just be happy to have a job with benefits, an awesome flat, and successful burlesque career on the side at the young age of eighteen but hey, maybe times have changed since the eighties.

We're not saying the charming Alex had it all. Sure, we're jealous of her adorable, well behaved dog and her handsome and well connected boyfriend but her wardrobe could use some work, right?

Right? Nope, lucky for her she was a steel worker, not a business woman, so she was able to avoid the shoulder pads and overly ambitious blush of the early eighties.

Instead she's looking ever so chic in scene after scene in her military surplus gear, wide ribbed knit sweaters, and of course the famous trend-setting off shoulder sweatshirt. Now, in our current economy you can't rent a warehouse on a low level welder's salary.

In fact, good luck finding a welding job at age eighteen. The good news?

You can totally rock that off the shoulder sweatshirt look. In fact we've put it all together for you.

With this costume you'll get a long sweatshirt that'll cover the dangerously high cut leotard that you may or may not be wearing. You'll also get a headband to keep that wild eighties hair at bay and some leg warmers to pad your legs as you're showing off those break dance moves.

Not bad for your average eighteen-year-old steel worker.

There's no doubt that your kiddo has some stellar moves. She's been breaking it down for a while.

Whether she's whipping her hair back and forth or springing into a saut from first position she seems to have a wild kind of grace about her. There are plenty of famous ballerinas for her to dress up as but a modern girl like her needs a fun and funky take on the standard dance themed costume.

If your little one has been into dance for a while she's probably been a ballerina for quite a few costumed events. While the tutu, white tights, and ballet slippers have made some pretty precious pictures it's about time she found a costume with a little more edge and a lot more feeling.

Whether or not she's seen the classic eighties movie, Flashdance, she'll like this off the shoulder sweatshirt, leg warmers, and sweatband. We're not sure if you want your daughter to learn the basics of welding but we're sure the smell of melted metal would make this costume complete.

Your daughter may or may not have perfected those maniac moves that Alex Owens made famous all those years ago but she'll be inspired to make up her own moves in this ensemble. Those ballet school judges won't even know what hit them!

You'll see it takes is a cute sweatshirt and she'll be dancing like she's never danced before!
