A bit of a vein thread, but oh well. Was just thinking how every once and a while someone will point out something that is outdated and I'm emberresed but later thankful they said something. Because it's hard to stay in the loop when your not in high school anymore. I always vowed not to be the polyester outdated type when I got older, anyone else?
Not that I care so much, but it's easier for me today to connect with youth.
When I entered college in 1994 (just gotten out of the ARmy and pretty much everyone exits with the style they entered) I had the same 80's permed hairstyle, irridescent pink lipstick and clothes. It took a bit of revamping little by little.
In 1998 I worked at a camp that had a bunch of Jersey and NY kids, they taught me right away that black hose weren't worn anymore, and asked if I was going to a funeral.
In 1999 I learned my application of make-up was outdated and that blush wasn't applied the same way as the 80's.
Last year I learned how plastic thick glasses are considered attractive and young.
