Gish's hoodie thread makes me think of all the things I've done in the past to fit in or look fashionable. What is the silliest thing you did with your clothes, body or hair in the name of fashion?<br><br>
When I was sixteen, I got a spiral perm. I looked like a poodle.

Parachute. Pants.

 

[runningINnyc]

Tight rolling my jeans. Man, I looked like such a tool!

 

[Hanging Jury]

Wearing gigantic work boots with the laces undone a la Judd Nelson in The Breakfast Club...

I remember when my friend got one of those horrid haircuts with one side short and one side long.<br><br>
Actually, I think I need to send her an e-mail reminding her of that... <img alt="biggrin.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/biggrin.gif">

My worst offense was probably wearing pants with the cuffs rolled up and tapered right to my ankle. Or the big shirts and leggings, which shouldn't really count as pants. Or the big bangs of the 80s.

Birkenstocks.<br><br><i>Shudder!</i>

I'm guilty of all 3 of those. Plus, Z. Cavariccis. <img alt="blush.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/blush.gif">

Did anyone else tight roll while sporting two pairs of scrunched socks in various layers (so you could see the different colored socks)?

Bleaching out my jeans in the bathtup in the 80s.

Other various 80's fashion sins... <img alt="biggrin.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/biggrin.gif">

Flat top.

How about some cheap perfume? I wore this garbage for a while. Love's Babysoft!<br><br><img alt="" src="http://www.kaboodle.com/hi/img/2/0/0/9a/6/AAAAAjvie2kAAAAAAJpmNg.jpg" style="border:0px solid;"><br><br>
Yes, that's a <i>perfume bottle.</i><br><br>
I also went through a regrettable Parfums de Coeur phase. <i>If you like Georgio, you'll love Primo!</i><br><br><img alt="" src="http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41KmP6hgTlL._AA280_.jpg" style="border:0px solid;"><br><br>
They were right. I loved it.

Nothing. <img alt="cool.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/cool.gif">

The whole 80s punk scene:<br><br><img alt="" src="http://i32.tinypic.com/2r56901.jpg" style="border:0px solid;">

 

[runningINnyc]

Oh shit, I bought copious amounts of this stuff.

 

[lelly]

Guilty! <img alt="blush.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/blush.gif">

Did any of you wear jeans so tight you had to lay down on the bed and use a metal hanger to get them zipped?<br><br>
Me neither. <img alt="uhoh2.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/uhoh2.gif">

Ugh!
