  2. I agree with Debby about the big hair, mine was big and curly :) I am so into the aviators again, looking for a pair of Gold, Carrie style one's inspiration SATC 2.
    Happy Sunday to you!

  9. Love the 80's! It's actually my youngest son's favorite station on satellite radio. I also got him loving Michael Jackson - every Halloween now after trick or treating we watch MJ videos - beginning with Thriller of course! That's how it all started - after the first video my boys were glued to the screen. I loved going over to my friends house after school to watch music video's. Those were the days!

  33. 1980s OMG! I wasn't really into the music as I spent most of my time singing Itsy Witsy Spider to my girls...but I do have a picture wearing one patent red shoe and one patent green one. My sister had to wrestle me to the ground to take away my should pads. I even had them in my bathrobe!

  35. how odd is it that mtv dropped the music part? my current obsession, tonight at least is overeating via mass quantities of good cereal. and it is almost as good as blondie back in the day. almost.

  36. Love the bangles! I have learned to appreciate and love 80s stuff now. I never thought I would. But, it's so cute!

    ReplyDelete
  37. Ooh, I definitely don't want to relive any of my 80's fashion moments... none of it was good!

  38. Day glo and raybans are forever.

    in 1985 I used to wear those rings that you use to knot your shirts.

  39. How funny, I get back from my break and end up in 1985 - and there was life before dvd, mp3 and facebook, hooray ;-) Thanks for the trip down memory lane, though I don't think I should repeat some of my fashion disasters... Love from London x

  40. I love all the 80s styles that are back now. The neon trend is one of my favorites. Hope you had a great weekend.

  42. 1985 brings back great memories. got my braces off that year and although I retired my parachute pants the year before, I switched to lace fingerless gloves and burlap skirts with my duran duran buttons on my shirt.... oy vey.
