And black boots. I've never owned so many black boots as back then.
Did you have the ones that sort of scrunched down around the ankles?
Dawn: I thought you were adequate. Giles: And the accolades keep pouring in. I'd best take my leave before my head swells any larger. Good night.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Was that any moreso in the 80s than other decades? No one really wears much of that crap.
Hmmm. Good question. But did I mention FLOCK OF SEAGULLS guy?!?

Er, no.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights
Layered button up shirts, one worn like a jacket.
I'd forgotten that look! And I seem to remember loving it, back in the day.
I always took the shoulder bads out of my clothes, since I'm broad-shouldered, and I ignored color trends if the color wasn't flattering to me. (I think 1987 was the Year of Peach, which I avoided like the plague.) But other than that I was a slavish follower of all the trends, at least in the watered-down form that made it to Birmingham.

FLOCK OF SEAGULLS guy?!?
I think I missed that atrocity. Example?
I had these suede boots, in a beigy fawn color that were folded over at the ankles. Not like the ebay ones.
ETA: Aw, a plei-let in the plei-house!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
This + this + this + this = need to bleach brain.
However, I wouldn't mind this so much.
Flock of Seagulls. I much preferred Spandau fashion. And don't forget Duran!

For sarameg, voila! I'm sure you can guess which guy I am talking about.
