    Well how else are you going to kill the nasty bed-cooties? I mean that's a DOUBLE BED, not a pair of twin beds like decent folk would have! Preferably in separate rooms.

    I prefer the earlyish to mid 80's rather than the 90's. Now I have the urge to watch Flashdance , Fame & St Elmo's Fire.

    Oh Gawd. Those leg warmers and ripped up looking T-shirts with one naughty shoulder showing.

    Those Sears short dresses with shorts underneath...I remember them as 'hot pants'. Yup. I had a set..Mom sewed them.

    You know the 70's Show that featured the 1970's styles..I hate revival of styles from that area. But then the early-mid 1980's styles of big brushed women's hair, padded shoulders in suits, dresses ..and the whole "Dallas/JR Ewing flashy dress-up look" was just as bad.

    When I see the little smock/sundress like blouses now worn over jeans..it just gives me slightly bad memories of those longer sundresses with smocking stitchery, at the top bodice with tie-up shoulder straps from the 1970's.

    But really can you imagine..fashion revival of our current fashions in past 5 years....to reoccur in 20 yrs.?? Ughhh, I'm sorry. Will future fashionistas revive butt-crack, thong-showing jeans?

    But low-rise jeans ARE a revival...from the '60s. hip-huggers.

    Since this thread is wandering anyway, this is a really good book about perceptions of women back in "the day." And "the day" actually extends I want to say until the 70s in this book. It covers the books about how the bad boys you weren't supposed to date (the guy on the cover is totally my type) and Lysol as, dun dun dun, a friggin douche!
