You know you wore it! - Page 8

I only have pictures available of one outfit. Check the parachute pants and the loafers:

I'm sure I've got some grunge era teen pictures somewhere also, but I don't have time to look for those at the moment.

Forgot my Sperry Topsiders, which I still of course wear.

NickO'Time · 07-06-2007, 09:48 AM

Acid Wash Jeans (the old term) And LA gear high Tops.

OMG... jeans that had zippers at the ankles... so you could get your feet through them!

Two-color scrunch socks - so you could pretend you were wearing two pairs!

Things that I wore:
(looks that I rocked will come later. Prepare yourself for the horrors! Especially when my fashionista icons at the time were Debbie Gibson & all of the Heathers.)

*Swatches! I had the pastel yellow banana-scented Swatch, the white Swatch with the blue polka-dotted face (I also had the matching bag). The clear coral Swatch with multi-colored fishies on the face, the neon green, hot pink, clear black Swatch..I can't even remember them all! I was a total Swatchdog.

*L.A. Gear Hightops & Reebok Hightops in all of the pastel colours! I had white, pink, banana yellow.... I wish I could remember!

*Fancy, bejeweled Banana Clips. Adorned with pearls & crystals. As if my giant, pouffy spritzed 80's hair even allowed those gems to be seen.

*Every scrunchie in every fabric & color known to man. I have a soft spot for the gold lame' scrunchy & the purple grosgrain scrunchy adorned with dangling gold coins. Oof.

*Those big, hideous bows attached to barrettes. To elegantly restrain our poufy, fried, teased, choking on Sebastian Freeze Hair Sprayed tresses.

Jeans? Jordache, Sergio Valente, Bon Jour, Dittos, Gloria Van Der Bilt, Guess?, Bongo. All super-tight. The best ones had the zippers on the hem or the little denim bows. Eek!

There are so many more to add. I'll end up sinking this Thread with nightmares! However, I went to Catholic School from pre-school to senior year, so I grew up in a plaid skirt & kneesocks. Weekends and free-dress days (which were rule-heavy) allowed me to indulge in trendy crimes of fashion.

Why is it when I really can't post, all of the AllyOops! friendly Threads get posted?? Damn! Double damn!

OP shirts, cords, and Wallabies... This was my standard outfit in high school.

(Oh God... I still wear cords and Wallabies! I'm such a geek!)

katiesue · 07-06-2007, 10:21 AM

Dittos, I completely forgot about Dittos jeans.

And then there was some other brand with no seams on the ousides of the legs but I can't for the life of me rember what they were called.

BarTopDancer · 07-06-2007, 10:26 AM

Guess jeans with the triangle on the butt and the zippers on the ankles.

I was the sh*t riding my bike in my guess jeans tucked into my 3 pairs of scrunchie socks that matched my LA Gear Flames. And my spiral permed hair in a side ponytail with matching scrunchie.

Daymn I was hot.

This picture is so dated, but not because of my outfit. (And, of course, I'm on the phone.)

I've always loved hats.

There are TONS of pictures of me in the woods wearing flannel. TONS!

A rotary dial phone and turntable? My god woman, how old are you?!

Actually, since that is the April 25, 1985, issue of Rolling Stone against the bookshelf that probably dates the picture pretty accurately.
