Does anyone else remember having a pair of these in about 8th grade?!? I swear I owned a pair EXACTLY like these...I even remember having arguments with my mom about wanting to wear them without socks and she was worried my feet would get cold (because it was winter of course) but I would refuse...now, you hardly can find shoes that are meant to be worn with socks...and that really makes me mad, because I don't want my feet to get cold!I went to the clearance aisle and found this style of sandal:
Once again, I had a pair of these, only white, way back in 6th or 7th grade!! I remember me and my best friend, Tausha, had matching sandals! Am I making anyone else feel old?!?Now onto clothes - When I was in 6th grade, I had this favorite top, that was a TUNIC, and I would wear it with my favorite pair of turqoise LEGGINGS!! Leggings similar to this pair:
When leggings went out of style, I swore I would never wear a pair again...and with my body now, I'm sticking to that promise!!I was shopping for school clothes for McKenna and started seeing vests and mach-vests everywhere!!
I had a favorite vest outfit back in 8th grade!! My cirlce of friends and I had decided for 8th grade we were "too good" for the average pair of jean and t-shirt. We were going to dress things up and only wear slacks and khakis. I loved my green paisley vest with my black slacks and my black flats (from the picture up above) Now, I am not judging anyone for wearing these items or having their children wear these items...I am grateful they have updated most of them...My tunic was shaped like a potato sack and had ribbing around the bottom - I actually own some tunics right now and my daughter owns and wears leggings (although it took me awhile to warm up to them again). I am just having a "I feel old" day and seeing some of those trends that were around 20 YEARS ago has not helped!! I just hope the hammer pants don't come back!!!
