I went to Walmart the other day to enable my coffee habit.

Ordinarily I don’t spend that much time in Walmart, I walk in, buy the thing I need and leave. Mostly because I spent so much time at Wallyworld in grad school I feel like the Waltons made enough money off of me.

Anyway, that all changed when I grabbed my coffee, headed toward the checkout lanes and accidentally looked up as I was passing the clothing section.

Does anyone else remember Ocean Pacific clothing? I haven’t seen it in years although I live near the beach.

Does anyone else remember the last time neon pink, orange and yellow were a clothing staple? I believe Madonna was in her first incarnation back then.

And for the love of Pete is anyone else wondering why the hell someone with a huge butt like me (I would totally fit into those), should ever wear short shorts?

I want to be a clothing designer.

I want to tell whoever designs this crap that they are idiots. Big girls shouldn’t have to wear short shorts because that’s all that’s available “this season”. We don’t want crop top shirts and we don’t want shirts so long you literally need a tshirt clip from the 80s.

It’s just so wrong!

I am kind of hoping they bring back the slap bracelets though. Those things were awesome.

What’s your favorite 80s accessory?

  2. My favorite 80s accessory?

    My between husbands boyfriend (1984 and 1985). Cute, sexy, and made me look great.

    Ahh, memories.

    These shorts are a hot mess. I did lobe my 80’s name belt. I would change out the letters to make all sorts of combos.
