How to be punk?

I want to be a punk for Haloween, and my mom won't let me be a 2007 punk. She wants me to be and 80's punk, so whatever. I have no idea how to dress like an 80's punk. we bought black hair dye and purple hair dye at wal mart. I am going to have black hair with puple tips. is that good? please help me with clothes. o if you have any other advice.

Thanks!

I would have gone with neon colours or some type of trashy blonde. Purple/black sounds a little too goth or "2007" punk to me.

I wouldn't be upset about not being able to be a "2007" punk since I don't think I've actually seen a decent one out there since...well, the 80s.

As for clothes, think = DIY, trashy, fishnet stockings, Chuck Taylors, neon colors with black (like neon pink fishnets under tight black jeans), or black and white, trashy/neon makeup, ripped clothes, safety pins, Nancy/Sid Vicious...you probably get the point.

The hair dye is perfect. Stud belts are a must (atleast 2-3 of them, wear them all at once. hang (1 or 2)loosly around your waist) Fishnet, skinny black jeans, combat rugged boots (try a thrift store they should have some). Spike bracelets and necklaces. (Try Hottopic or *the front of* Spencers.) Misfits shirt, or any other 80s punk bad. (Silent Riot, or even David Bowie as Ziggy Stardust *kind of a strech*, R.E.M, the list goes on)

Dark or extravagant eye make-up. Neon organe or pink, or do tradition black. Have fun with your make-up. ^^

I hope this was helpful!
