1985

brian 002

I know my beautiful and talented friend is probably not very happy with me that I posted this photo the other day.

But it was her birthday, and even though most years it fly's by and I ignore it just like I do my own.

I couldn’t resist.

Something takes over when I see these classic 1985 pictures. It is an urge that is so powerful – I can’t resist. I can’t win.

In fact this picture puts such a smile on my face I might post it once a week – FORever!

Truthfully, the thing that is the best about this photo is the couch, carpet, and the wall decor.

Oh my, Oh my, Oh my! I can’t even explain.

Fact:

Both dresses were hers,(I think) probably the ear rings, lip gloss, and blue eye shadow too. She has always had much better taste than I, and she always shared.

We were on our way to a hot Friday night dance at the H.S. Wahoo!

We were seniors. We were going to room together after H.S. We had senioritis!

Bi-level hair was the rage, and we were hip, but I remember being more blonde then this???

I notice jelly shoes – still cool, or is it cool again, or have they come and now gone again. I can’t keep track.

I believe I had just seen Sixteen Candles, and the Breakfast Club. Great movies to get fashion advice from, and movies I would not recommend for my own princesses,

but you have to understand it was 1985.
