Way Back Wednesday - the 80's



It's Hump Day! And time to play the game where The Kept Woman asks us to post embarrassing pictures of ourselves online for all the world to see. This weeks theme is:

TX Mom also came up with this theme...pull out the parachute pants, whip out the White Rain and show us how unkind the 80s were to you

Okay then. This is pretty embarrassing. I give you the feathered stiff hair of 1984. I think I did use White Rain from time to time but for the most part it was Aqua Net all they way. And only the feathered sides were sprayed...so when the wind blew...well you know what happened...wings. I didn't normally dress this way. My mom made me wear the Victorian looking white blouse for my pictures because she was really into Victorian looking white blouses.



This one is 87 or 88...can't remember. Now we have the permed do (all except the top... which was kinda feathered...but not really) I think I had the sides back in combs here. I was stylin' with my famous leather jacket, black turtle neck and white poofy skirt. Purdy!



And lastly, we have 1988. In this one you get the full blown out sides version. As if having a perm wasn't bad enough...we had to create even more fullness by blowing the hair out with a hairdryer and spraying it with aqua net at the same time. The bigger the better. The outfit was for work. I didn't normally go around wearing bow ties but I have to admit I really liked this one with my poofy sleeved white blouse. Those black pants were a size 1 by the way. A SIZE ONE, I say! Right now I'd settle for being a one digit size.



Did you play?

As much as I hate to admit it, I had every single one of those hairstyles. And, why did we think we looked good?

OMG... the last two photos? I HAVE IDENTICAL ONES!

I swear we were twins. (I'm betting it was 1987 - around Christmas time, cuz that is when my photo with the permed hair and black leather jacket was taken too).
