More on that later, no doubt...
...meanwhile, here's one of the songs that was playing as we wandered, eyes agape at the spectacular array of weird and wonderful outfits on display:

We just celebrated our 56th anniversary! The 80's are distant memories! ( I do remember wearing shoulder pads on damn near every garment I had!!!) xoxo
ReplyDeleteOh, I miss shoulder-pads! And three-pleat pegged trousers. And big, big hair. And excessive amounts of diamanté. In fact, I miss just about everything that went with that fantabulosa early 1980s era..!
DeleteHey ho. Jx
PS 56 years?! You deserve a medal!
Those were my days of clompy Docs, torn hose, Flock of Seagulls hair, shocko makeup - made even more desperately sad by the fact that I could not stand Punk, I just liked the clothes. *Sob!*
