Headed out for an Orange Julius, and a small bag of broken cashews from the nut store, before playing with the puppies at Pass Pets, checking out the sheet music at the organ store (Bananarama? Jam!), and hitting California Shirtworks for a ringer tee with a sparkly rainbow on the front, and their names in fuzzy letters on the back.
I wore my stirrup pants with high top sneakers and two pairs of color coordinated socks slouched to the ankles. Then came the acid washed jeans and ballet flats. Mid-late 80s fashion was a trip.
Let me guess…
Missy and Jennifer, right…?

OMG stirrup pants! I had blocked out all memory of these abominations.
Classic!

Those belts. I remember my old girlfriend and her huge white belt!
Robin Sparkles!
I think at least three families in my neighborhood had that same shitty hide-a-bed sofa in the basement.
WOW! Truly capturing a moment in time.

Whew, talk about a memory trip that flashed before my eyes. The high needs to be bigger and higher, though. Lol damn I’m old😬😬😭😭😭😫
Back when you wore knee high pantyhose with pants if you had dressier shoes on
Where’s the purple face triangle?
LOL, thanks for the memories, and a good laugh.
The evolution of yoga pants.
Oh god those belts. I think I blocked those out of my memory.
Oooh I rocked stirrup pants and my knockoff Sam & Libbys like a mfer.
These gals are ready to call Sigmund Freud a geek
I love how the pantyhose are wayy too dark
It’s crazy how society follows styles until someone cool switches it up, then they do it all again.
When you want to go shopping at the mall with Stacy but you have karate lessons later
I need that lamp
Need more shoulder padding
You were why I went to the mall (not specifically of course) but was always too shy to approach.
the mom has the official battlestar Galactica space cadet hair.
That is literally the same outfit. Different color
The walls at the mall are totally, totally tall

Can I tag along and hang out with you? I promise not to be annoying.
I still have some clothes from Chess King.
Hey that’s the year I was born!
yep
the 80s
You were a material girl, living in a material world.
First stop…the arcade!
I had those same belts! Loved my big belts. This is peak mall fashion.
Why was every 80s teenager in their late 30s?
Weren’t you guys in Night of the Comet?
You totally are! Love it! I was a teen from 1981-1989!
My prime teen years! Looking at this picture makes me horny.
The smell of the hairspray in the 80’s was life alteringly bad. That stuff.. ugh
These are people who remember where they were when Wham broke up.
Their boyfriends are wearing pegged pants…
This is a perfect example of the “Everyone thinks 80’s homes looked like the 80’s but they really looked like the 60’s and 70’s”.
I see those stirrup pants! Yeeeeeah!
The lamp! 💞
Don’t remember these Buck Rogers characters.
Pretty ladies but their choice in clothes could have spanned up a level or two.
I will always contend they had better hair back then!
