Monday- Dress like a flapper. Wear a cute baby-doll dress with a long necklace, preferably beaded. Use a scarf to wear around your hair and put on pretty costume jewelry. Cute heels are a must. Your makeup and hair should be really well done- nice and tight.
Tuesday- Dress up like a beatnik. Most people will be hippies. You'll stand out and look cooler. Beatniks wore black- think form-fitting sweaters & turtlenecks with skinny pants (black capris work). If you have a beret, that will complete the look. Wear maybe a big plastic bracelet or chunky earrings to keep it cute. Keep your hair smooth and sleek. If you have ballerina shoes or other flats, that's perfect.
Wednesday- I'd wear gold and lots of sparkle. Try to feather your hair or flip it out. Now is the time to break out your chunky heels. You could take the hippie way out here too, but I would do the disco thing if I were you. Think Austin Powers and Charlie's Angels.
Thursday- If you have a t-shirt with anything from the 80s, wear it. My Little Pony, Fat Albert, all that good stuff. See if your dad still has his member's only jacket. If not, any patent leather jacket will work. Wear some flood pants to make it look like your pants are higher. For accessories, anything made out of that jelly material works well. Bold colors. Heavy makeup. Spray the crap out of your bangs if you have any. If not, at least spray your roots up.

Cool idea your school has!
30s - You should do a google search for pictures of old Hollywood fashion...sort of what Christina Aguilera is going for with her look lately.
40s - WWII Nurse or, if you ever watch Gilmore Girls when Rory had to work for the Daughters of the Revolution (?), she was dressed up in a WWII uniform, and her hair was done up with ringlets and looked really glamorous.
50s - Bobby Soxer with a poodle skirt, hair pulled back in a pony tail, saddle shoes, a small somewhat see-through scarf tied just above the shirt collar. The shirt could have your first initial sewn onto it on the left chest area.
60s - Dress like a Hippie...lots of beads and fringe, flower patterned halter top, bell bottom jeans.
70s - Dress like Stevie Nicks of Fleetwood Mac...find some knee-high suede platform boots for the outfit. Try the "Rhiannon" style she has on the cover of the Rumours CD.
80s - Dress like Madonna in her early singing days...or wear what average teens in the 80s wore - stirrup pants, big shoulder pads in big oversized blouse, with a wide bright-colored belt around the blouse. Tease your hair up really big and do some crimping to it. Wear tons of bangle bracelets, jelly bracelets, and a chunky necklace. Oh, yeah...and talk like a valley girl.

I wish I could help more but here's my advice:
80s-hair up in a high ponytail with lots of hairspray
-brightly coloured leggings
-colourful skirt
-large t-shirt hanging off one shoulder
-tons of bright makeup
70s- same thing as 80s but toned down
50-60s-google images 50s and 60s wear
30s-40s- conservative dress with knee socks and loafers
Good Luck!

For Monday dress like a homeless person and say you are a drifter looking for work. If you could get a jumpsuit, then you could be a female factory worker for the '40s (think the famous we can do it poster). Women in the fifties mostly wore dresses. Could you ask your grandmother/ an elderly person? Good luck.

Monday: Dress up in your oldest, dirtiest clothes. Overalls or jeans would be best. Think of dust bowl/great depression. A straw hat would be a nice touch.
Tuesday: Hippie style. Bell-bottoms (or jeans with flared legs), tie-dye t-shirt, beads. Peace, man.
Wednesday: Disco mania! Something flashy. Maybe an afro wig, and big jewelry.
Thursday: ZUBAS! Haha. Or jean shorts/jackets, oversized t-shirts, BIG plastic jewelry (earrings or bracelets).
Good luck. Have fun with it!
