Many of you may recognize hairstcuts or clothing styles from these photos. Others of you may simply relate to the blank empty stares.

Please tell me you didn't have the 'fro to go with it.
that made my day, Thanks
so funny...
Ray - I can imagine the chops for some reason. Did you wear Brut?
On another note, is it me or does the guy standing next to his bride in the fake (sloping) library look INCREDIBLY shifty??
I think my favorite was "Serious Lance, Mirthful Lance." Mirthful Lance is currently living in a padded room, his wardrobe consists only of hospital pants and straight jackets.
Worse still, some of the styles are coming back. I always smile when I see some Paris Hilton wannabe with GINOURMOUS sunglasses that look like something Jackie Kennedy might have worn.
Ray, have you ever worn a fanny pack?
Ahh..bell bottom jeans, clogs, leather pony tail holders and fancy combs to keep my hair out of my face. Let's not forget those short shorts, especially the ones the men wore with tank tops when they jogged. Yep. Those were the days.
I wore tank tops but not the short shorts; too self conscious I guess. Obviously they look much better on the other gender.
Oh, wait a minute... I haven't thought about ANY pants in a long time.
My Angel Flights were replaced by M.A.L.E., and those were replaced by Brittania. I wore English Leather after I outgrew Old Spice. My leisure suit was powder blue with dark blue stitching.
But I didn't get my 'fro until my freshman year in college... '80.
BTW... A word about Hai Karate... Check out the prices on unopened bottles of Hai Karate via eBay. I tried to find a bottle as a gag gift for my father-in-law, and I was stunned by what I would have had to pay.
NaeNae, did you ever cause me to have flashbacks. I worked retail in 1977 and sold Angel Flights. We had racks of them. They were the best. That was at the same time as we were selling 'fashion' overalls and lots of shiny polyester shirts.
Remember Bare Traps and Roots shoes? Weren't the mens short shorts called stubbies?
Yep ... "Those were the days my friend, we thought they'd never end...."
One of my ex-boyfriends did that, and his senior picture was taken in 1995. He had a couple different prop-shots. One with a saxophone, and one with a gun (rifle). I had a good laugh when I saw those.
