4. Leggings with low heels or "flats"
5. Feathered bangs to the side, heavily sprayed with hairspray
6. Permed hair, with straight bangs
7. LA Gears
8. Jams (longer shorts with crazy prints)
9. Swatches
10. Anything from the "guess" line

1. Big hair w/the hairspray helmet (ugh, since I had straight hair did I stick out LOL) and the layered look w/bangs.

2. Designer blue jeans w/polo collars up

3. Preppy look w/those funny interchangable handbags -- distinctly remember a classmate big into those pink/green colors ;-)

4. Leg warmers, big fuzzy ones

5. Nikes or "jogging" shoes & running shorts

6. Hanging out at the roller skating rink, not the mall like now

7. Making silly best friend collages, cutting stuff out & pasting like scrapbook on poster board

8. Prairie skirts w/ruffly eyelet material

9. Ankle boots, particularly suede

10. Sony Walkman

11. Swatch watches

12. Jewelry w/your initials (necklaces, anklets & bracelets)

13. Velour tracksuits

Man do I feel old recalling these esp when I see some of them becoming trendy again. When I tell my girls some of these were popular when I was at school they don't believe me ;-)
