At least we're not going through an 1880's revival. Forget leggings. Imagine bustles as the hot item of the season. Now, THAT would be obnoxious. Well, let’s just all look at the bright side.

Unlike my friend who calls the 80's the height of fashion. But he's color blind also, so I don't take his fashion advice seriously. I take this pledge.

Really, I do - see, I stuck my finger and everything to make it legit. I swear, the "fashion" industry continues to amaze me. That stuff did not look good in the 80's and it doesn't look good now. Period. Ladies of the world, unite! Buy clothes that look good on you and leave the (ugly) trendy stuff on the rack where it belongs. Having said all that, my Prince/Jermaine Stewart bangs circa 1988 really were fierce :) I pledge! Really, I do - see, I stuck my finger and everything to make it legit.

Please, say it isn't so. I thought the 80's was going to be one decade that we wouldn't revisit. I weep. WEEP!

Unfortunately we can't say no legwarmers because they have made a comeback...I'm just waiting for the parachute pants. and absolutely none of those clothes that change colors with the heat of your body—Hypercolors was the name I believe.
