As we would tactfully say in the South: “Bless her heart!”
I was born in 1985 so was *just* old enough to appreciate the 80s. Did anyone else have one of those sweaters with animals on playing in the snow, but it had pompoms stuck on to represent snowflakes? I also had a tracksuit, springy neon “self tying” laces and jelly shoes!
YES! But that was more 90’s. I had a big sweater with a panda on it when I was about 7 with little pom poms and shit on it. I don’t know, I’m sure it was an 80’s thing too. Jelly shoes were definitely 90’s, me and my friend Katharine would wear them at the creek. Thanks for giving me a wave of memories.
I’m a 90’s kid, but I had the pom pom sweaters, jelly shoes and the springy laces haha
somewhere in the corner, Stephen King is thinking of his latest novel for the creepy girl in the funky sweater
over the top, the sweater, glasses, hair, socks, huge earrings, bangle bracelets and to top it off the cabbage patch doll freshly unwrapped
Does she know that her glasses are upside-down?!
The 80s was the era of many things including “Effed-Up Glasses” and for a while the enormous glasses that appeared to be upside down based on the placement of the ear rests was a popular look..I know this based on photos of my parents among others. I hope this look never again becomes popular.
Jenny tried for years to be known as the trend setter at her school. Who would have thought that at last she hit gold by catching the leading edge of the cabbage patch doll craze.
That tree was already being upstaged and made to look lacklustre by the busy wallpaper and the shiny gold upholstery. I think the girl’s earrings are nutcracker heads; whatever they are they’re nicely balanced by the hosiery\blue socks\open-toed shoes combo that complete her ensemble.
Superstar!
That whole outfit had to be part of her Xmas gifts. The typical mother telling her to “try on your new clothes” picture — love it!
I think I’m in love…
OMG! For a second I thought this was ME!
But I do need to make something very clear. I would never ever wear socks in my shoes like that. I mean, come ON. I can’t comment on that sweatshirt and say whether or not I may have had the exact same one, maybe with pants to match too, just sayin, you know, IF I had it.
Well, I see where my glasses from high school went.
Socks? Pumps? Socks? Pumps?
BOTH!
Hey now…this outfit was obviously planned out.
pantihose 6 shades darker than my skin…check
socks…uh…better go with white it goes with everything which is exactly what I am wearing
shoes…well, I am wearing a dress and black goes with everything to
and voila!
Look at the decor….the poor girl never had a chance.
I had jelly shoes in the mid eighties, and crazy shirts as well as those dang glasses. Poor girl really thought she looked pretty nice there. Im sure she’s with the times now.
it may be a silent night but man is her outfit screaming! lmao
