Over the weekend, a high school friend of mine turned 40. We just had a good chortle remembering the stuff we used to wear. Jeans pegged with safety pins? They're back. Pegging instructions (for your kids) can be printed right here.
Personally? I was devoted to my high-waist, ankle zip, Guess jeans back in the day.
I loved to wear them with one of my Forenza sweaters from The Limited, and a pair of pink reeboks just like these.
I was devoted to Mary Kay super-pink super-frosty lip gloss. I'd pick up my makeup order from Martha, who sold cosmetics while she wo-manned our home town's Pizza Hut drive-thru window.
I failed my driver's test twice before passing. I never had a boyfriend in high school and didn't get asked to my senior prom. I could still drink full-sugar cokes without gaining a pound.
Ooohh... I had a pair of those jeans too, but they were the knockoff brand. I went through many cans of Aqua Net and loved my Guess tote bag... remember those?
And yes, Tay wears all the 80's fashions. The only difference is they are 10x more expensive now, and not made as well. Sad eh?
Thanks for the smile!
