80s excess

Kiss goodbye to your conscience, minimalism and your bank balance and say hello to excess. Now that everything 80s is well and truly back in fashion, it seems that the decade's lust for wasting money is back in vogue too. Oasis frontman Liam Gallagher is leading the way - he blew £3,500 this week at Harrods on a hair slide (yes, a hair slide) for his pregnant girlfriend Nicole Appleton. To get with the trend invest in some practically redundant but ridiculously expensive trinkets including a Sony AIBO dog (£1,059), a Links standing pig matchvesta (£190) and start lighting Cuban cigars with £50 notes.
