You wore long hair,turtle-necks,flaired trousers

Come on!! admit it....you looked like this many years back!!. There are old photographs hidden in the attic!.You looked like something straight out of the'Scooby-Doo' cartoon series!!!.

 

I wore houndstooth bellbottoms.... I wish I had a picture...*sigh*

 

Lol!!!.That's brilliant.Please post up a photo,If you can!!.

 

i have pictures ill never show..

i slowly started growin my hair when i was in 2nd grade.. the beatles bowl cut,.. (ack the beatles kill me now)

we were somewhat poor when bell bottoms were popular,,.. but i had 2 older sisters..

they used to cut the pleats and add fabric,, often they would add fabric to the bottom of the britches leg as well..

was quite creative ..

id say i can answer yes to all yer above questions,,..

seppin for the platform shoes..

all in all i remember playin spin the bottle to rod stewarts music ,, blah blah..

to think what a skewed life i was livin at 13..

hell i was already shootin dope,..
heheehe,..

i was in 7th grade when the farrah poster was popular..

 

i'd wear brown doublknit bells now if i could find any in my size and price range. and lime green shortsleeve shirts with nerd pockets.

i do have brown, NOT CANVAS pants. the heavy cotton work pants they make now wear out even quicker then decent dress pants to go with a suit.

always hated blue denum though. to me it was like wearing a uniform to be DIFFERENT? how can you be your unique self by immitating everyone else. besides moms used to dress us in bluejeans. damd uncomfortable things that never lasted long enough to get comfortable. and yes i mean that includes the big name ones just as much as the also's.

i was working in a place once where i got complained to about my hair one too many times for my liking so i shaved it all off. this was before the neo-swastika nuts started do that as THEIR badge/symbol.

i WANTED to look like, i don't remember what he was called, but before there was scooby there was archi, and there was i guy in that, well the whole thing was like a precursor to scooby, except it didn't have the dog. anyway there was this guy in it who was the precursor to shaggy in scooby. then there were r. crumb's freek brothers. and mr natural. my hair never did cooperate and my skin rebeled against my hair.

but i did have a string of wooden poney beads with a big peace symbol.

only time i ever went dancing was some lady friend would drag me into it. never got into platforms/moonboots. thought they were dumb. why the hell should i have to want to pretend to be tall? i LIKE being short!

I had a pair of green bell bottoms and a jean jacket with multi colored patches all over it that I liked to wear. I always thought I looked cool in that. LoL One of my sisters had a pair of denim bell bottoms with Shaun Cassidy on the bell part of the pantleg--he was surfing on a wave. She thought he was IT! LoL
Shaun Cassidy wasn't my cup of tea! ;-)

 

yep.though i admit to sewing up a pair of flares last week - in inchlength threads - went to the bar - straight away,got the comment 'waiting for a flood?'
cheese - love it

 

You fans of Shaun Cassidy are younger than me. My group went to the original Army Navy stores and bought the 13 button navy wool pants and the green army fatique jackets were our symbols in the spring. You had to love all the pockets those things came with.

 

Shaun Cassidy was the pin-up vogue for about six months in 1976 or something.I don't think he went anywhere near the water let alone surfing.
Farrah-Fawcett Majors: was replaced by 'Daisy Duke' from the 'Dukes of Hazzard'.
'The Fonz' in leather motorcycle jacket with the thumbs -up..........(I know you're asking:"Thumb's up what?") that poster was everywhere!.

 

i was mistaken for a girl one time at the mall, a lady sellin hair straighteners was like "excuse me miss, would you like to try it out" and i turned around and she's like "omg, i'm so so sorry" and i laughed

 

I still do

 

Um, I still think I'm Velma from Scooby Doo on a good day. Am I ill?

 

My hair is STILL so long that I'm sometimes mistakenly thought to be female. It's weird, though, that it's still not gray...

 

I danced to vinyl records. As a teenager and young adult, I had a collection of over 900 record albums, but that was nothing compared to my Dad's record collection. I got my first cd player when I was 20. I did have an 8-track player as a kid.

Shaun Cassidy was on my bedroom wall when I was in the second or third grade. I had Farrah hair when I was 13. Everyone else did, too, but mine was the biggest. Then big hair became the thing and I shaved it off for a mohawk instead.

I did have one pair of bellbottoms in the third or fourth grade. My mom kept sewing strips of wide ribbon to the bottoms of the legs when they got too short for me and I wouldn't stop wearing them. In high school everyone wore Levis straight legs with the white patch on the back pocket.

I never had platform shoes, but did have some metallic gold "high heel" sneakers, I think that was in the sixth grade, because Olivia Newton John (I think it was her) wore some just like them in some wretched movie about rollerskating. Yes, I went to the Roller Disco every friday night and spent all of my allowance. That would have been from 5th to 7th grades.

 

Halp meh!!! all the sensational seventies childhood memories are comin' back to haunt us.....
Roller Disco,Olivia Newton John,Velma,The Incredible Hulk.......
"We got a brand new convoy,trucking thru' the night.....come on & join our convoy;ain't she a beautiful sight!!!".

 

Back in 75 or so I had the longest hair in my high school and ya wearing the old platform shoes and bellbottoms or flares, whatever they were called.
Almost every morning these same 2 teachers would be standing at the door as I come in late blowing pot smoke in their faces.
They never did anything about except mumble something to me that I have no idea what.......

 

................"Getcha 'aircut sonny!!!".

 

all of the above, heh
I remember dancing to those little 45 records at a girl's house. We were probably 8 or so.
I was mistaken for a girl today. Cashier's don't look at customers any more. They see hair and think female. Even though I have a freaking moustache they think female. It happens every few weeks but I do have nice hair.
The Farrah poster...I stared at that nipple poking thru her red swimsuit till it was permanently etched in my mind. In '78, I was 11 and that poster was like a window on my wall looking straight into Heaven.
The platform shoes, what can I say? They were hand me downs from my cousin so I just played in them and sometimes the harder we play, the harder we fall, right?
