Please tell me that you never had a perm. :-)
Hey, they had woman's tops in the 1970s that had spaghetti staps, crinkled elastic around the boobs, then hung loosely down to past the navel. What the heck were those called?
They almost looked maternity-ish, but they were hot.
Mercifully NO. I did have longish hair in 8th grade, theough, and my girlfriend curled it with a curling iron once. does that count?
I still love that song, for some darn reason. I was SO innocent back then!
Or Skynyrd
I would have called it a tank top I guess. I was too young to wear things like that so I don't have any first hand knowledge. The 80's was the decade that I "blossomed" in.
I dunno. Fortunately, the tube top has remained a fashion staple among the trailer-park set.
LOL Do you have any pictures of it?
I'll start with the windows.
It was like a tube top, but with flouncy material below it. I remember the neighbor gal very fondly with that thing on!
She did take pics at the time. Don't know ehere they are now. I must admit, I looked HOT! ;o)
That's a start. ;-)
Actually, I'm willing to accept that. I'm really not the domme type so I don't enjoy seeing men grovel. A simple apology is sufficient.
Dasher might require a little more than that though. :-)
....I use to rock my baby to sleep with that song.
Exactly how did she curl your hair?
I have 3 of those "For Members Only" jackets and wear one them regularly but I'm stuck in the 50's...
Apology?! You two started the debacle! ;o)
I'm willing to bribe, but I expect sumthin in return! ;o)
LOL. Stuck in the 50s, wearing 70s clothes? You're a mess! ;o)
I dance my baby girl to sleep to the tune of Daddy's Little Girl by the Mills Brothers. I get weepy just hearing it!
