I've been trying to figure those out, too. I am pretty sure they were made by Candie's, but I can't find any information on them.

Terri asked about Home Party brands: One was DONKENNEY but I think it was upscale, ladies who lunch stuff, maybe not so casual. Lingerie Party brand was probably Undercover Wear.

I had a pair of shorts that had flaps on the back of the knees. I thought they were the coolest, but I have no idea what they are called. Anybody remember?

does anyone remember a lip gloss or lip stick that came in these little tiny cases the lid was rounded and it was usually a marbled look to it. I remember my sister had a purple and white one and I think a pink and white one and Im pretty sure the lip stuff inside was marbled too. Anyone remember? Or am I nuts?! lol Im thinking it was something from Wet n Wiild

Does anyone remember the half-cirlce shaped wooden purses that you would put a colored bandana in to secure your items? Everyone I know had one in high school (1981-84) but I can't seem to find anything about them.

Did anyone else have a pair of sandals that were flat and made with an all rubber sole; they had really long laces with colorful beads at the ends? You wapped them around your ankles and calves before tying them.

Does anyone remember wearing plastic Swatch watches with the buckle on the top of the wrist? In 1989 when I was 16 I started doing that. I wore it like that through the rest of my teen years. Older people often asked me why I wear it like that and I just said no reason, its just the cool way to wear it at my school. My wife said she thinks she remembers. Anyone remember why we wore our Swatches this way?
Tina - April 26, 2008 - Report this comment
We used to call them "clark changs", but nothing comes up in a seach. Basically, it was a girl's flip flop style sandal that was made of plastic. The sole was hard and made a click clack sound. They were in many different types of colors--red, yellow, blue, black, white. It must have been around in the mid to late 80's. Just wondering if anyone else remembers them!

Anybody remember "Shirt Tales"? I used to have a collection of their sweatshirts, with the a picture of the front of the character on the front, and the back of the character on the back. I think that was early 80's, around the same time Monchichis were so popular.

The purses with the wooden handle and fabric bottoms are called Bermuda Bags...you can still find them today.

Does anyone remember the sneakers with the thick white sole. We would wear the thick shoe strings (two different colors)in them and fluff them out so that they lie down on top of the shoe.

I have to do a presentation at school and I am having a hard time identifying the particular style of clothes worn by like Madonna, Prince. I was thinking it would be labeled as retro but I am confused
Car - January 16, 2009 - Report this comment
The sneakers were probably Converse. I had a pair of hitops. You'd put different color laces in them and fluff out the flap. Very cool back in the day.

Is there a name attached to men's dress shirts from the period that had buttons running down on the right side of the shirt. Some chef's uniforms still follow this pattern, but in 1983 I had one of these shirts in a geometric pattern

Im not from the 80's im only 15 but a LOVE the style!!! I always tell my friends that i would fit in so much better then!

I remember the tshirts with character on front (front on) and on the back being the back of the character... I had a mickey mouse one - it looked like his head was poking through some horizontal blue blinds that he was holding open! Madonna's style would have probably been a modern punk style? retro was older than the 80's by about 20yrs
Cali - February 26, 2009 - Report this comment
Madonna's style was hard to define in the 80's. I think her early look was called Urban Punk or Street Urchin Chic. Prince, Duran Duran and all the other frilly shirted fellows were New Romantics. The collared shirts with no sleeves were sleeveless camp shirts. The long men's coats are called dusters and you can find them today in Cabela's catalogs and other rugged outdoor-wear places. On a night out in the 80's it depends on what year as to what you would wear, as well as your musical preference. New Romantics would wear poet's shirts and skin tight black or red leather pants with pirate boots, red or black sash around the waist, matching scarf around the forehead tucked under your big, heavily frosted hair. If you listened to loverboy, skip the poet shirt and boots, wear a sleeveless t-shirt with one pink Converse hi-top and one baby blue hi-top. If you were into Madonna, you wore trashy lingerie as outerwear, a black crinoline over capri-length black stretch pants, fingerless lace gloves, black jazz shoes, yellow socks, too much long jewelry, gumi bracelets, a lace bow wrapped around your head and over your big, frosted hair. If you were into Cyndi Lauper or the Go-go's you hit the thrift stores for 50's era dresses which you wore with hideously striped socks or leggings an high-heeled pumps that clashed. Your hair would be some unnatural color, spiked horribly at odd angles, and shaved up one side. By the mid 80's going out styles tended to be more tailored and more garishly colored with everyone wearing unstructured neon colored jackets with straight skirts and ankle hugging pants. No socks, and jazz shoes or those canvas pull ons with a checkerboard pattern. The late 80's gave way to jewel tones, very tailored jackets, form fitting clothes, androgynous looks and a return to the military black look. No matter the year the makeup was ALWAYS overdone, dramatic, and almost like Kubiki theater.

does anyone remember the purses that were almost like small duffle bags. They were fabric and had two leather straps and a brass plate that you could have engraved with your name or monogram. They came in navy, plaid, tan, etc.
