Wearing black bolero hats a la Ms Gibson

Fingerless gloves, a la Madonna

Shredded jeans

Spectravision and On TV - the precursors to cable!

Friday Night Videos

Wired, not wireless, remotes

Dangermouse on Nickelodeon

Sweet Valley High books (with illustrations on the cover, not photos of the TV actors)

Jelly bracelets - I remember looping two together so it would look like you were wearing a bracelet and a ring. That hurt!

Tinted moose for your hair - there was a gold one for blonde hair and a red one for brunettes.

I also remember when the first CD player came out, and the day that a strange "VHS" section popped up at our local video store.


I think the 80s are a nice place to visit, but I wouldn't want to live then (again).
