"Who's that Girl"? Why, it is Madonna!
In the '80s, dId you always wish you could dress up like Madonna, but your parents wouldn't let you? Well, now you can with these great Madonna costume ideas.
Madonna has evolved her look throughout her entire career, and is still evolving to this day. But, this lens is only focusing on her early '80s look. Why? Because this is when she was totally awesome. Plus, it is my favorite!
I've included some Madonna videos and pictures for inspiration too.
So, come on "Material Girl". Let's "Dress You Up"!

- Oh, those were the days. :D I even dressed up my daughter as Madonna for Halloween one year. You can see it on my 80s Halloween costume lens. Sort of a cross between your Borderline and Lucky Star costume ideas. Tweeted and posted on my FB page. Thanks for sharing.
