The 80s are back.

As we all know we are starting to see more and more 80s fashions making a comeback: stiletto heels, belts, short poufy skirts, whites, hot pinks, and whatnot.

You know you feel old when clothes that were in style when you were in high school make a comeback. LOL!!!

Hey Lorna,

I will pass on to you what I was told when I was your age.
Your nothing but a young pup.

Now how old do you think that makes me feel?

Bring it on! I missed out on dressing as a woman when the 80's were around. I'd love to get a second chance!

Lorna,

I have noticed the 80's comeback also

I really enjoyed the styles from that decade, and I had lots of fun getting all dressed up.

The shoes from then were my favorite style!!! '*^^*

And the mini skirts, love the mini skirt!!

I'm very happy I saved many of my things from then

and they still me fit too

Just as long as the hair style of puffing it out wider than their shoulders doesn't come back.

For some reason I always want to ask fi the girl got shocked or something.

*runs away from the mob of poofy haired people!!!!!*

Hmm, my fav colour at the minute is white, was that around a lot in the 80's was it? I was too busy playing commodore64 in the 80s and listening to Bros and Michael Jackson lol

Hi girls,

Having a 21 year old daughter, the nastalgic return to 80's and even 70's fashion has not escaped me. I also missed out on dressing in this wonderful fashion era, but being 43 and overweight it does not seem appropriate for me.

But you never know, this weight keeps dropping off me, and I could feel differntly down the road. For now, I will settle for dressing like an overweight 43 year old woman, because it feels so much better than dressing like a overweight 43 year old man. Laff

Love always,
Elizabeth

My problem is those pesky lov handles that men seem to always get unless they do vigorous exercies around 30. 8-P The rest of me is pretty trim. I suspect though that once I get the bicycle fixed up and start riding around again the remaining flab will disapear and i'll be back to my mid-20's 8% body fat

But that's all plans and hope for now. too much darn work to do!
