fashionita.... were you?

THINGS YOU WORE...IF YOU WERE A CHILD OF THE 80's

- banana clips - clogs
- friendship bracelets and pins - jelly shoes
- hair crimpers - P.J.'s with feet
- Lee Press on Nails - Esprit bags
- mittens with strings - name earrings
- rat tails - Aqua "Helmet"/Net
- holes in your jeans - jean skirts & jean jackets
- nylons and socks (together) - t-shirts 4 times too big
- the Madonna look - the Cyndi Lauper look
- MC Hammer pants - leather and leopard print...
- moonboots were the coolest thing to be seen in... especially the silver
ones:
* even though you lost both your socks and the linings when you tried to
take them off
* even though they didn't keep your feet dry
* even though you fell over because there was absolutely no support for
the ankles
- leg warmers (showing only your toes, even over your shoes)
- rolling your jeans -- the tighter the better
- the "Freshman Wall of Hair" -- where your hair went straight up with
only a little bit flipped back over the top
- the alligator clips with feathers that used to be worn in your hair
(even though they hurt)
- the epitome of the 80's -- wearing your collar up, even on polo
shirts
(the bigger the collar the better)
- going without socks (even in the winter)
- wearing blue mascara and blue eye shadow at the same time
