  2. Elizabeth says:

    those look like MULTIPLES to me. I had the exact same teal-pink combo.

  3. Ellen says:

    I think they are UNITS. I used to work at a UNITS store in the mall in the 80s. She needs more cowls. We used to load them on. And the littlest kid needs some shoulder pads.

  4. Warren says:

    I’m pretty sure outfits like these are cool again in the indie-hipster scene, no?

    • Omega says:

      I was just about to say that; you are completely correct. In fact, these girls are so unknowingly hip they can’t see over their own bellybuttons.

  5. Bleah! says:

    Wow! So 80’s!

  6. Blucat says:

    HAHA! This is CLASSIC awkward! The colored socks, pegged tapered pants and mushroom hair all scream 80’s suburban glam.

    A walking test for Color Blindness

  12. TerryLee says:

  13. Millie says:

    Holy 1980s!!!!!!! The color scheme is priceless.

  14. EC says:

    how unfortunate

  15. Parrothead says:

    Maybe the dots all started big, and got smaller as the kids grew up…

  16. Alekx says:

    I could honestly see this happening to me.
    Grandmas…

  17. Marcia says:

    I love that the oldest girl had to roll the pant legs at the bottom. LOL

  18. Kelly says:

    Mom made the outfits I’m certain of it…

  19. Traci says:

    Can somebody say, “Units?”

  20. Kelley says:

    The Units store at ridgedale!! I was too chubby to pull them off!

  21. Amy says:

    Has anyone else noticed that one of these “children” are 7 foot 2 inches tall?

  22. Jen Parker says:

    You can never have too many units!

  23. Tia says:

    The necklace the eldest girl is wearing is so shockingly bright, it’s producing a 3D Magic Eye effect for me on the screen O_o

  24. Whackypatty says:

    Their Aunt Dot made them.

  25. Eeej says:

    These are totally “Units” outfits, which I remember coveting as a child. We could only afford the cheap versions, but there were girls who had infinite combinations and wore them every day. Ah, the simpler days of wardrobe decision-making these outfits afforded.

  26. Jeremy says:

    They said there would be side effects.

  27. Alyssa says:
