My Little Pony She-ra (sp?) JEM (does anyone else remember this girl cartoon about a girl that's normal during the day & a rock star named JEM at night?) I was also a HUGE fan of Stacy Q & her hit song "Two of Hearts" :p |
I remember during the early 80's:
Velcro purses... Roach clips as hair accessories... Jelly shoes... Jelly purses and tote bags... Vans sneakers were extremely popular... Dove/Dolphin two-toned shorts that were banned from schools because they were too short (the were track shorts if I remember correctly)... Farrah Fawcett hair was in... The Tuxedo look for girls was in... Bubble gum shaped like cigarettes that would "smoke" when you blew on one end of the gum (it was powdered gum)... In the mid 80's, I remember... Leg warmers.... Sweater vests... Blue eye shadow... In the late 80's, I remember... Long permed hair... Long permed hair with Sun-In.... |
OOOOH OOOH OOOOHH!!!
What about those shirts that changed color in the sun? (or was it when they got wet?) What were they called? PsychTau |
They changed color base don your body heat!!! I remember that the girls wearing them would have lighter colors under their armpits!!! It was always so funny!!!!!
Ohhh Ohhh ohhhh!!! What about the rainbow shirts??? Those were HUGE in 1981-82!!!!! :D Quote:

*I remember when Trix cereal WAS NOT fruit shaped, it was circular, and there were only 3 colors (red, blue and yellow).
*I loved Crunchy Stars cereal and the Chef. *I watched Nickelodeon's "You can't do that on Television". *I owned the original "Skip It". *I had Atari with Qbert, Pac Man, and Pong. *I owned a purple Trapper Keeper. *My elementary school backpack had a real working clock on it (a la Flava Flave). |

Okay now what about the neon pink mini skirts with lime green polka dots - can't forget that fashion statement.
Of course there was also the sight of girls wearing pumps with their jeans. All the one hit wonders of the 80's. Good old MTV VJs Downtown Julie Brown and Martha (can't remember her name but she does an 80 music commercial now). ON TV - the first cable system in Los Angeles that I remember. The Tshirts that we tied up using a little plastic round belt buckle thing (old age is catching up to me I can't remember what they were called). Fame the TV series - I used to love that show. Wish some station would pick it up in syndication. |
