It was paired with black walking shorts and finished off with white ankle socks and Bass Bucks shoes. I look like I just walked out of a Pearl Jam video. Both my friends in the picture are dressed similarly.
Oh the joys of rush during the days of grunge.
Oh, for pref I wore a blue with cream polka dots short sleeved dress with cream hose and blue heels. I still remember my Rho Chi's advice of - NO NUDE HOSE! (nude hose were considered a "cuttable" offense by some).
I would post pictures, but I don't have a working scanner.  |
Gasp! The nude hose in the 90's were so wrong! Ha! I remember we wore sheer black hose with practically everything. White shoes were also completely passe even in the summer. During the same time period, I only remember what I wore for pref. We didn't have supper formal prefs, so you just wore a church style dress. I was into Yuppie style, so I picked a red dress that was double breasted with a white collar and blue buttons. It had a little blue pocket square so it looked like a little red suit dress. I paired it with white hose and a pair of navy heals. I had super curly hair down to my waist a la Nicole Kidman. My husband laughs when he sees pictures of my hair back then and says I looked like a Pentacostal (no offense to any one of that religion.)
