I guess the expression is true…what’s old is new again.
For instance, fashion and styles come around again. I wore bell bottoms in the 70’s and then again, more recently, as boot cut jeans. Florescent clothes that were crazy-popular in the 80’s are everywhere—and not just as workout clothes. I have seen high school students sporting vans, ripped jeans and even satin bombers. (Mine was reversible with dragons embroidered on it.)
Too bad popular hairstyles don’t make it around like clothes. What I wouldn’t give to see someone sport the Farrah or the Rachel hairstyles again. Or what about a mullet?
Just watch anything from the 80’s and you will see, it wasn’t just for rednecks.
So, don’t be afraid to hang onto your favorite pair of jeans or the shoes that were too cool. Don’t toss that rock concert into the donate pile no matter how embarrassing the band or band members have become.
There may be a day when your kids come across this piece of nostalgic fashion and insist on wearing it. So, let them! As long as they aren’t crimping their hair, they may not regret it.
