Hi everyone. I wish we could all dress like that again! Myself and friends usually had on black pants, black or red sleeveless turtlenecks and a big belt around your waist. High heels, either pumps or boots. We use to have what we called "pleather" p

Can you scan the picture and make a link so all the GUYS can see? I know I couldn't figure out how even if I had the picture. Good luck, the men of the world are depending on you!Godspeed!

I was but a wee lad in the early 80's and dressed in whatever my Mom bought me (although I INSISTED on getting a replica of Simon LeBon's jacket from "The Reflex" video...I looked like a dink!). In the mid-80's I cultivated a retro-Brit-punk look but with

On a side note, after 8 years of searching, I finally found a sleelveless British flag shirt, like the one featured in Def Leppard's "Photograph" video. The first one I got from eBay was a size too small, but managed to get another one via mail order that

Thanks for the compliment Ollie, your pictures are cool too =)

Cheetah's awesome, I hung out with him a lot during those days, although I probably wouldn't have much to say to him now, I'd probably be trying to help get him on a raw food plan, ha-ha.

My fave look from back then was a 'do that I thought was so cool at the time, but in retrospect, was totally Duckie from Pretty in Pink. I did the concert t's and 90% black clothes (even in summer) until like 89, when it went to almost all black and a mor

I was a total sucker for the Duckie look. I still for the life of me cannot understand why the hell Andie ever fell for that Blaine guy, lol. Okay, I see a point with the money and all...

Sadly, seeing Jon Cryer age in Three and Half Men has ruined it

Hey Sean, I also had the biker jacket with the Nitzer Ebb button. The funny thing was that at the time, I had no idea who they were and I found the button. I put it on and my hard core freinds were like thats soo cool! I was like yea I know. Little did th
