Singer Maluca sashays down the street with curlers in her hair in her El Tigeraso video, but the style statement that really caught my eye was her orange-red-floral-on-black jacket.

Another screen cap from El Tigeraso.
The color and print reminds me of the ’80s shirt that I wore in October.

Next time I wear that shirt, I’ll pop in some curlers and do it Maluca-style. The question is do I go for plastic like she did or should I branch out with Diet Coke cans like Lady Gaga?

Too bad Diet Snapple bottles are too heavy! I’ve got plenty of those around.
I can'[t believe I pulled a craving for diet snapple out of this post.
Hmmm, maybe stale “Peeps” can sub as rollers?
Festive, no?
Love the rolled up jeans … so femme and happy.
you look great!!! and thanks for the blog comment. love your blog and jewelry designs!!!! you are my inspiration.
Hi there-I love the floral biker jacket and I think you would look so cute in curlers, lol!!
“Curler’s in your hair- shame on you!” Actually, it doesn’t seem that bad… more like big HairBling.
Coke can curls was a look that Brittany Murphy also rocked in the makeover scene in Clueless.
They all have this vintage Betsey Johnson twist that I like!
Looks like the floral leather jacket from Erin Magee’s FW09 Mademe line

Possibly bright red cans since you’re the goddess of red lipstick. Happy birthday, voted for you x
I thought it was Betsey Johnson at first. Love singer’s jacket and your shirt too. I just got an old black dress with tiny red flowers from Goodwill and am planning to make it into a maxi skirt, but love large floral pattern in your post.

i used to wear those colored plastic ‘butterfly clips’ to set my hair in the 1980’s – seemed to work out okay.
love the orangey-red on black floral! it’s vintage and ‘holiday’ all at once! perfect with rolled up jeans. steph
p.s. my word is ‘sidnancy’. uh oh.
Aack! I was at the grocery store the otehr day and saw a case of Diet Snapple and IMMEDIATELY thought of you and Jeninne. Proudest blogging-related moment of 2010, hands down. Haha.
no coke cans… But you are dead on!! I like that…
