Admit it! In the 80s, I wore too much makeup.

[Left Is Write]

Yeah, yeah. Jumpin' on the bandwagon.

[wtmusic]

1. Yes I admit that you did

but I like the fuzzy sweater

[Left Is Write]

5. Actually -

That was a spandex top. :D

That eye makeup is making me cringe now, though.

2. OMG you had the whole acid wash jean thing going on!!

I was a bit too young for makeup but I probably would have shellacked it on.

[Left Is Write]

4. Well, hey. You know. It was 1988.

;)

[Biased Liberal Media]

7. I used to have Gitano jeans that were acid washed

I was big for an 8 year old...but my parents always got me whatever was in as long as it was suitable for my age. I clearly remember acid wash Gitano jeans and an acid wash jean jacket to match.

[Tandalayo_Scheisskopf]

3. Ahem.

Yes, well...ahem.

/me pulls neck on shirt.

[Straight Shooter]

6. Hell, no, not for the '80s. You look like Olivia Newton-John's evil twin.

:)

9. Tell me about it, stud!

Reminds me of that last scene in Grease.

[fluffernutter]

8. great pic. are those Jordache jeans?

[Left Is Write]

13. They were Forenza!

I did have some Jordaches too, though.

[Sanity Claws]

10. You were so 80's!

Wasn't that era just awful for fashions? It's hard to figure out whether 70s or the 80s were worse.

[CanuckAmok]

21. of course the 70s were worse...

The 80s at least attempted to accentuate/exaggerate the human form...

Basically the 70s were about dropping some primo blotter and wearing some burlap.

Fuck it, I miss 80s fashions.

[Left Is Write]

23. They were both pretty bad, but I didn't know it at the time.

In the 80s, I actually wore stirrup pants. *shudder*

[Sanity Claws]

26. Human form?

Women wore these HUGE shoulder pads in the 80s. No female human looked like that.

[CanuckAmok]

27. like I said... "accentuated or exaggerated"

unlike the horrific, aformal seventies.

[Jayster777]

11. But...

You look nice anyway. Like the stone-washed jeans.

[Steven_S]

12. makeup?.......what makeup?

[SOteric]

14. Actually, - for the 80's that's fairly subdued.

:hi:

[Yuugal]

15. the 80's were evil........

Bon Jovi hair ::shiver:: the memories are almost too painful!

[Left Is Write]

24. Perms...Aquanet...yes, it was an evil, evil time.

[frictionlessO]

16. I give up are you Kim Wilde or Bonnie Tyler?? nice pose!!

[tuvor]

18. My first thought was Kim Wilde.

[tuvor]

17. Yes, but strangely compelling...

:)

[autorank]

19. You've got that "CHARLIZE THERON " look. Back to your roots.

[Left Is Write]

22. You mean the hair?

No, I really was blonde. I never colored my hair until my 30s. That look is a result of too much perm on the ends and too much hairspray on the top.

[autorank]

28. The whole look! Maybe Theron is copying you.

[ScreamingMeemie]

20. You look like my best friend in high school. Her hair was a bit longer

but you've got the same muffin top bang thing going on. Cut in a rectangle with 4 or 5 rows of curling iron curls going back. :hi:

[jmowreader]

25. That outfit screams for a ton of makeup

[bettyellen]

29. Now, I wore makeup like that in the 70's becasue I was a wannabe

Latina/ Disco/Punk /Urban kind of girl and the rock n roll slopy / earthy 70's didn't exist for us and we looked kind of eighties in the late 70's. So much makeup, my god, i used to take an hour! same eyeshadow as you exactly!! how cool is that! And except for the acid wash, you look good in that outfit. i happen to think black spandex is timeless!
