Fashion faux pas?

I was digging through some photos from my childhood (70s-80s) and had to shake my head at some of my... um... we'll call it "fashion choices." At that time, I know I felt like I was so stylish. Especially the photos from the 80s where I could finally wear makeup... electric blue eyeliner and really, really big hair. Ha!

Do you have any fashion trends that make you shake your head? (From your own past or current trends?)
 
I have a photo somewhere of me with crimped hair. I thought it was so cool but my poor hair was just fried and started breaking. I then had to go through a short hair style period :)
 
I’ve always dressed pretty classic (ie boring).. but past hairstyles come back to haunt me! And don’t get me started on my pre-tweezer eyebrows!!
 
Ha! I forgot about crimping! Yes, I had a crimping iron and yes, I damaged my hair.

Yes those 80s pictures are scary! They make my DDs laugh though. Especially seeing their Mother dressed in neon colours. :confused-8:
 
Same era for me, everything was so wide, I fitted twice in my clothing. And jackets with large shoulder pads. Looked like a body builder haha.
 
Ha ha...yes, I remember shoulder pads and neon colors. Also, fish net stockings. Makes me shudder :)
 
My hair was BLACK in high school. The box said dark brown when I asked my dad's permission to do it. I knew it was NOT gonna be dark brown. My mother was furious, and I looked even MORE like a ghost than I usually do.
 
Ha! Did you do the full goth look to set off your new hair color? :) When my daughter wanted to dye her blonde hair pink, I got her hair chalk instead. She did a strip of her hair for about a week and then got bored of it. LOL.

Oh yes, black lipstick and all. And then other days it would be all pink and confuse people.
 
I was a teen in the 80’s. So much, permed hair, the Farrah curl, swish pants, clogs, then entering the work world, power red suits, shoulder pads,
