Whenever someone says oh I didn’t know that or anything along those lines. I would then say ‘And knowing is half the battle.’ And they will look at me all strange 😂. So hope lots of people see this and start saying it too!!

I just grabbed an entire box from Walgreens, cost me a little over $30 but worth it!
I played with a Lite Brite as a kid, but I never understood the templates, just pushed the pegs through the paper randomly.

My partner is from America and he has a lot of pics of Halloween in 1980s. I love them. Here in malta we celebrate Halloween but from some years ago in the past we didn't know that Halloween exist.

I think the year was 1986 I was in Kindergarten and I had my WWF Sgt. Slaughter Ben Cooper costume, I can remember getting dressed and going to the gymnasium, as I walked in the halls all the other kids were coming down to enter the gymnasium. I had no idea what was going on but it felt like it was the biggest event on earth, my little mind couldn't grasp what was going on, all we were told was get dress there's a Halloween party and parade. When we got to the gym we lined up and then went to the playground and paraded around the field while our parents were outside cheering us all on. Then we all went to the gym and partied with the parents, teachers, and kids. These kids today will never be able to experience that fun, heck they can't barely even mention the word Halloween.

Bumbags were great. And yup always make sure jeans were long enough to peg. In fact we even pegged baggy chinos

As someone born in the year 2000, I can respect 80s fashion 😎 I actually own a jacket shirt with shoulder pads on them. Yeah! That's it! Shoulder pads!
@beansmama8914Ай бұрын
Even when they were fashionable I hated shoulder pads, use to cut them out and it worked so much better well until my mom figured out I borrowed one of her shirts again and she was gonna have to sew those little suckers back in 😂

Very recognizable! I got my first swatch, mc gregor, from my parents in ‘85 I think and loved it. Later I also had the turquoise bay and a jelly transparent one. All my watches got stolen 20yrs back unfortunately. Now few wks ago I found and bought a Nautilus from ‘86 in great condition via our local Ebay and I love it! Its tiny indeed, 34mm but getting used to it again. The fun thing is you see No-One wearing it😊 thanks for the nice vid.

I wore acid washed jeans that were pleated and had pockets in the thighs you could unsnap and drape the pocket down that had different colored material like stripes or flowers, and my pixie sneakers that the cuff at the top would also fold down to show off a print. Loved them!

They had "skinny jeans" back then but were not called that as they had the zipper on the ankle part and they pulled there thick socks up over the bottom of jeans to hide the zipper. Loved rhe aerobics videos if gals wearing high cut leotards with various colored tights.
