party like its 1981


So I rarely make a big deal about my birthday. This is my golden birthday and since my husband doesn't really think about such things- I am throwing myself a party. I normally like it low key. No family dinner birthday for me this year. I am throwing a 1980's party in a little over a week. I am thinking of ideas for dress, music, games, and food. The problem is I was very young in the 80's so don't know too much.
Here is what I have come up with so far:

Dress-
tight roll jeans, big hair, big earrings, neon colors, bright eyeshadows, rockin' the side ponytail, jean jackets, big chunky jewelry, the sweaterdress....
Music-
Debbie Gibson, Cyndi Lauper, MC Hammer, .....
Games-
80's Jeopardy, Atari
Showing
I love the 80's on the TV (or Goonies, Breakfast Club, Ferris Bueller)
Food:
Pop rocks, RC Cola, umm.... need help on this one.

Any ideas??
