Why Don't You....

...take a bit of sequined lace and use it as a scarf to wear around your head? Andi McDowell works the look to great effect with her curly hair, shown here in photos by Eric Boman for Vogue 1984. Hair by Sam McKnight.

Or, why don't you wear a heart-shaped rhinestone brooch on your sleeve?

Black wool jersey top and skirt by Geoffrey Beene closes with rhinestone buttons down the front. Set sold for $1195.00 in 1984 (about $2452.00 in today's dollar). Match it with Beene's floor-length rain slicker that sold for $510 in 1984 (about $1047 in today's dollar).
