| OMG...what's with the fuchsia lipstick & pursed lips?! |
My first instinct was to burn this cringe-inducing image of me in full, late-80's regalia, then I remembered my Oscar post and the blogger got the better of me.
This snap was taken just before a military ball I attended with my General Dad and UOW (ultimate officer's wife) Mom in Vegas. Little did I know I'd be going to the Oscars a few weeks later.
So go ahead, take a break from your pre-Thanksgiving lists, errands & chores and enjoy a giggle at my 80's fashion-victim expense!

ReplyDeleteMiss Amacker,
ReplyDeleteDo not taunt the Housewife, 'cause there are plenty more 80's snaps in my archives.
Lynn,
Lace & Lamé is hanging in my attic -- it's a part of my fashion history I refuse to part with.
