All my 80's babies stand up! The neon colors, door knocker hoops and skinny jeans have been creeping their way back into the mainstream for the past few years. Some skeptics thought the fads wouldn't last. But with Springtime about to kick into full bloom, let me break it down for you: The 80's are back!

If you don't believe me, check out Kanye West in the April/May issue of Complex magazine giving a complete step by step guide to rocking your old school gear just right. Fellas, listen up-Kanye says "grown and sexy" is out. That means no more sport coats and jeans, sweaters over collared shirts or tucked in ties. Go ahead and bury those in the back of your closet and grab yourself a cardigan or two, a graphic tee, the always essential pair of fly sneakers and a watch that will keep people asking you for the time.

Check out some of these less expensive alternatives to Kanye's casual, but flavorful spring look:
~Crooks&Castles has the funky, graphic tees stars like but for decent prices! http://www.crooksncastles.com/

~'80s nostalgia isn't complete without the track jacket, and Puma's French 77 Lux Track Jacket is affordable and fly (www.puma.com)

~ Finally, add some color to your wrist with one of of these timepieces from Nixon or Philippe Starck for Fossil:
