I believe there is a lot of truth in what you say. Fashion has taken a turn for the worse in the last few decades. A fun read. Thanks for sharing. Good luck, Carolyn

    I am very serious when I say that I have no idea any more what is in fashion. Thanks for the read and review.

Hurrah! I totally enjoyed your essay and agree with every bit. Very humorous look back at all the fashion trends that we just couldn't live without. Very well written. Thank for sharing. Good luck in the contest. Cheers, Barb @ TSTL

    Love the glitter! Isn't it strange how stars never go out of fashion? Thanks so much.

    I take it you received no enjoyment from reading this shorty essay. So sorry it didn't resonate with you.

Touche on dishing the fashion industry. I thought this story was imaginative and clearly written. I buy what I want, and I wear what I buy... I'm with you, I don't care anymore what is fashionable or not; and brother I laugh all the way to the bank with the money I save! Good job and good luck in the contest.

    I've come to that stage and really choose comfort over trendy and day. Thanks very much for the read and review.

This is a very good essay in this fashion subject. I think you covered very well a wide spectrum of female accessories. Woo, the rush of new intimates, they are no "intimates" anymore...

    The more I thought about what we squeezed into and out of, I really began to feel foolish. Thanks for the read.

This is just wonderful! I literally laughed out loud at the salons charging customers a fortune to make them look like a piece of crap. What wonderful observations - and they are all true!! Very funny and well written. Thank you for sharing and for the laugh! :-)

This was great. Fantastic. I remember and wore a lot of this . Rules , Rules, rules. I don't get the patterns and strips thing either. This really is a brilliant piece. Fun and clever. (I hate bras, left over from my hippie days). And we never left the house without a girdle and stockings (right before the panty hose was invented) High school days were a pain in the ass but I wouldn't have traded them for anything. Glad today to be much older, wear scrubs, and no bras on nights and weekends.

Excellent thoughts on the fashion world, and as you say who really cares about what's trendy and what's not. I think that statement could be applied to so many thinks, today. A fun piece that makes for an excellent entry to the prompt, and good luck.

This was too funny. The say if you keep anything long enough, it will come back on fashion, but if you wore it the first time around, don't wear it the second tome around.

    Yeah, now they call it retro and charge ten times as much for used clothes as they originally cost. Thanks for reading.

Your fashion story gave me many smiles. Oh, how gullible we all are! I found no mistakes or corrections that had to be made. I enjoyed it.

    Smiles are very good. I've been reminded that I missed the 'Saturday Night Fever' disco era. How glad I forgot. Thanks for reading.
