I Know it looks funny now but everyone dressed like that then I am pretty sure someone else will be on soon telling you about staypress 2 tone trousers, Tank tops, stacked heeled boots, harrington jackets, Ben sherman shirts, Loons, and loafers etc I suppose looking back it must look pretty gay but thats how it was.

It's funny that the clothes worn today will be laughed at on 10 years time.

I have a photo of me as a 10 year old kid on holiday on the norfolk broads wearing brown polyester flares, a yellow t-shirt with 'Too much of a good thing can be wonderful' written on it and a pair of mirrored aviator sunglasses. No-one has ever looked cooler.






No, I won't be scanning it. . . . . .

Sorry but the guy introducing the video has a bad ass style in fashion I need that whole ensemble, thats awesome

Somewhere in the house are the old mans levi's from the 70s, which my nan had customised being a seamstress teacher, flared out massively even for 70s standards, loads of patches sewn on them, the back of the left leg has Bowie written on it and back of the right leg has T-rex written down it, funny as fk to look at, must of looked a right in them with bleach blonde hair laugh
