There was a moment in the '80s when gender codes were much less rigid than they are now. Acting, dancing, singing and dressing in a way that could be construed as gay, in fact, didn't seem to be a concern at all! Take this Billy Squier video for "Rock Me Tonight." As this astute observer notes, Billy's just winding down "alone in cozy pink and white sherbet-colored PJs from the Richard Simmons collection." That he is.

There was a moment in the 80's when gender codes were much less rigid than they are even now. In fact, 80's dudes make 90's metrosexuals look downright butch. In the following Billy Squier video for "Rock Me Tonight," Squier is, according to this genius, winding down "alone in cozy pink and white sherbet-colored PJs from the Richard Simmons collection." Need more be said?

Among my many obsessions, Stevie Nicks and her witchy ways is high on the list. Not only was she an amazing singer and songwriter, her '70s outfits rocked! NYC hosts an annual Night of 1,000 Stevies where people get together and celebrate the fabulousness that was Stevie. (She's still around, obviously, but her '70s incarnation is celebrated.) I wish I could go to it. It's tonight! If any of my NYC readers go, please take some pics and send to me! Wheeee!
