There's Throwback Thursday, and then there's #TBT Jersey-style. (Confession: we're a fan of the latter.) On November 16, The Real Housewives of New Jersey pal Danielle Staub posted a nostalgic photo of herself, and the outfit — and hairstyle — is really something you need to see. 

One thing is clear: Danielle brings her East Coast style with her wherever she goes, even if she's sunning on the beach in Cancun. The throwback snap showed rare footage from a Mexican vacation, some years before Danielle teamed up with the rest of the 'Wives. With a close friend named Missy, the RHONJ pal wore a curve-hugging black bodysuit — replete with a turtleneck, thank you very much — and pointed-toe black pumps to match.

With a skinny purse strap slung over her shoulder, the actress and author also had her auburn hair teased into a voluminous, curly style with a deep side part.

Check it out — that's Danielle, on the left! 

The look is so Robert Palmer girl on vacation, and we're head-over-heels in love with it. And speaking of throwbacks: this reminds us of the time The Real Housewives of Orange County pal Heather Dubrow dressed up like a Robert Palmer girl for Tamra Judge's '80s-theme Bunco Party. Anyone else having fond Friday flashbacks?
