*Stocking headbands - Madonna in her "Boy-Toy/Like A Virgin" phase started this one. Sure, it was trashy and ugly, but what a great way to recycle old knee-highs!
*Espadrilles - Those shoes with the canvas tops and the rope bottoms. I miss them. When you wear them, you can almost feel the sand and surf under your feet.
*Full hips - And don't give me that "Giselle has a curvier figure, which means big hips are in!" crap. I mean, hips like Marilyn Monroe. Fuller, curvier, REAL women. All the clothes today are suited for women built like 12-year old boys.
*Crocodile handbags - wait a minute, they ARE back in! Oh happy day, they're so lovely and ladylike.
*Long/maxi coats - I'm sick of the 3/4 coat. I want something dramatic to enter a room with.
*Pale, shimmery makeup - And I'm talking SLIGHTLY shimmery. No one looks good as a disco ball. Technically, this makeup never goes out of style, but I'm sick of seeing the dark, bold lips and smudgy eyes that I can't pull off.
*Very long skirts - they're the only kind of skirt (besides a just-below-the-knee length) that I like. Please, no more short little Ally McBeal-esque skirts everywhere.
*Gray - a neutral color that, again, never goes out of style. But a couple of years ago, gray clothes were everywhere in shades ranging from charcoal to light ash. I love gray. It's got all the versatile, flattering qualites of black without the harsh overtones.
