Flashback Friday Fashion Fail - it was the 80's after all!

That's me in the hot pink number, with the lovely perm at a school formal, circa 1986. Don't I look thrilled with myself?


Check out Cam's gorgeous Debutante photo and her reflections here. You may even wish to submit your own glorious memories.

  1. Oh that's fantastic! I never got to wear hot pink taffeta (now I'm totally jealous).
    I had that exact same perm all the way through 1987 and 1988 - short on top and long at the back...hee hee
