Xander ,'Conversations with Dead People'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
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!
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.
Ah. Scary hair.
Is it too early for me to miss LA?
No - you know you can always stay! Nahhh you'd miss the cool new job but still.....
EtA: Those pink spandex pants that ita linked to? My best friend had a pair of those. *shudder*
the sausage curl stage..oy!
I love these. I have drooled over sausage curls since I was about seven and in love with Shirley Temple. And no, we are NOT contemporaries!
These were the ones [granny boots] with the b&w or brown& white rag socks sewn in. They weren't bad, I just remember them clearly.
I still have a pair of these. I don't wear them often, but every now and then....
Of course, I NEVER throw anything away. I'm bad that way.
