At age 7 I didn't care what I wore but I know I hated dresses.

I don't remember age 14 and age 21 was the 80's look! Big hair and whatever clothes were popular then. I loved wearing dresses and mini skirts then.

thank God I have no Pictures anymore of that time here. :-D

But in the 80´s I loved my stonewashed Jeans and my Hair Cut, we called in German Vokuhila (Vorne kurz hinten lang = Short in the front and long on the backside )

And don´t forget the Basketball Shoes from Adidas called "Allrounder"

I have NEVER been a slave to fashion... no pictures currently available (thankfully)...

age 7 in 1964... blue jeans, sneakers and some sort of striped T-shirt... very Opie Taylor looking... always dress pants, shoes and a button down shirt to school... short hair, Elvis pompadour... no glasses yet... avoided dressing like The Beatles for some reason...

age 14 in 1971... some flairs (usually striped), lotsa American flag garb, including tennis shoes that were blue with white stars and a red tongue... same shorter hair length, Elvis pompadour sorta wilting... Clark Kent horn rims... the occasional Dickie turtleneck (worn with SHORT sleeves!)...

age 21 in 1978 -- college years!!! mostly jeans, weasely moustache and plaid flanel lumberjack shirts... hair covering the tops of my ears and fairly unruly... wire frame aviator glasses... wore a beige leisure suit to my Mom's funeral in 1977...

This is so funny!

Age 7 in 1975 - Shag haircuts and polyester pants
Age 14 in 1982 - Big hair, stirrup pants and oversized shirts, parachute pants, leg warmers
Age 21 in 1989 - Still had the big hair, acid washed jeans, minit skirts, shoulder pads

Brings back lots of memories!

Age 7 in 1980: velveteen outfits, knee socks

Age 14 in 1987: Swatch watch

Age 21 in 1994: turtlenecks, cowboy boots

I've never worn lots of the current fashions. When I was little, we couldn't afford new clothes all of the time. Now that I'm an adult, I'm too frugal to go out & spend lots of money on clothes that will go out of style next year!

Age 7 in 1968: Levis jeans all sorts of colors. I liked wearing sports shirts, the generic jerseys with the number 12 on it. The adults in the neighborhood used to call me "number 12" because of the shirts. Always had to have Converse Jack Purcell shoes, if you didn't wear them you were made fun of big time.


Age 14 in 1975: Mostly jeans and t shirts, i liked the running shoes that were blue with 3 stripes, don't remember the brand of them though.


Age 21 in 1982: Mostly jeans and t shirts again. But now I had a job and could get the real sports jerseys. With the player's names on them, I even had a Capitals jersey made with my name on it. Went through a cowboy boot phase there for a while too.
