I was only a youngster in the 80s but I remember wearing fishnet ankle socks in luminous colours (green, yellow, pink)

... also remember taking a jelly bag to school, which was made of plastic and had loads of holes in it... how impractical!! Ra ra skirts were in fashion too, and leg warmers. Hope this helps

I always wanted to have jelly sandals and a jelly bag for school but my mum wouldn't hear of it!

Blue eyeliner/pinky Rimmel lipstick (the one everyone used - what was it called?). Oh and have a curly bob.

Food - Slush Puppies, Scampi n Lemon Nic Nacs.

Early Madonna as in Get Into The Groove is still my look of choice... And my sis was mad about Aha!

it wasn't just the blokes ..... mind you some of us still look like that ...... except the stupidly baggy trousers ........ mine were drainpipe, and mostly so tight you couldn't get em over your foot, and had to lie down to do the button up ...... even the stretch ones
