Stuck in the 80s! High school clothes revisited...

YukonJoy

Those are freaking awesome! And you totally pull them off. They kinda do want to make me cry though, and I'm not a boy. lol

And be careful with the wire coathangers. My mom broke her nose that way putting on pants in the 70's lol.

Those are the greatest pants ever! You are amazing! I cannot believe how lil and skinny you look And I agree with you, you looked good in the first pic too ... wow! Thanks for the motivation today!

My fave posting today-this week even! How great is that!

I know the "cant breathe" feeling though. I am now between sizes. My old pants are too big, the next size down in my closet is still too tight to be comfortable yet...blah.

But..seriously...comical stuff!

Love the post... now about those pants.....:noway: ....lol.....I agree with you about getting back to the High School weight I'm almost 30yrs & it will be crazy(almost impossible) to go back to my HS weight...(I used to weigh 105lbs)....

LMAO! I love the 80's, but way back then at my heaviest just before I got married I was 108 pounds, I don't think there would anyway in he** that I could get into my old parachute pants nor would I want to!

I can (painfully) button them, but the zipper doesn't go all the way up. Maybe if I tried first thing in the morning, and had a wire coathanger, and laid down on the bed, and held the two ends together while someone else zipped. Maybe. But they fit close enough that I could snap a few pictures.

This is the technique I used to get ALL my jeans on in high school. I wasn't chubby or anything - just kind of slutty. :happy:

Hahahaha

Well, that is pretty funny. However, those may be the worst pants I have EVER seen. EVER.

You frickin crack me up, girl! Those pants are disgusting. Love 'em! And you look fabulous, as always

This is awesome! Thanks for the Friday afternoon laugh!! Save those bad boys for an 80's themed party sometime!!!

justimogen

If fitting into pants like that isn't enough motivation to lose weight, I don't know what is!

Thanks for the laughs...and the 80s memories! :laugh:

*peeing my current pants while I laugh my butt off*
I can totally relate to those pants -- I actually had a pair of spandex running pants in college that looked like these. Eeeek. And I wore them proudly, too.

You are TOO cool for words -- I love your hard work, and I love your "go for broke" 'tude. (Love the shirt, by the way -- keep it another 10 years!!):bigsmile:

I wish I had some old clothes around -- hey WAIT. I think I've got a bad 80's homecoming dress at my mom's...hmm....stay tuned.

P.S. Look at the difference in your arms!! :noway: FANTASTIC!!!

LOLOL! we wore ours the same way and sometimes you had a friend zip while you held them together but if not there was always a fork or pliers to get that zipper up.

Pliers! Why didn't I think of that?! :laugh:

Totally Awesome! HAHAHA Gotta love it! And you look great!

First off kudos to you for fitting into your old high school pants! Secondly..those are the most awful things I have seen in a long time! If you decide to revisit the 80's via those pants again you should also grab your teasing comb a bottle of Aqua net (there's still some ozone layer left) and make your hair bigger..it wouldn't be the 80's without big bang mall hair!!

I too used to lay down on the bed to zip my jeans and I was 113 lbs. in high school. I think it was a combo of higher waist line and no stretch in the denim and of course the ultra hot dryer to shrink said pants to be even tighter, who needs to breathe anyway.

CherrySunday

omg, those pants RULE!!!

LorinaLynn

I think I forgot to mention that these are size 5/6! I still can't believe it.

I also can't believe that I don't have any photos of me in those jeans from my high school days. Maybe people were afraid they'd break the lens in the camera.

I do have a photo of me at 19 - twenty years ago - in another pair of jeans that fit again. Maybe not the most flattering fit, but they fit. Well, they zip. Zipping isn't the same as fitting.



I'm not as thin as I was then, but for one, I don't want to be, and two... I got way better abs now! And back then, I'd NEVER let someone photograph me first thing in the morning with no makeup and my glasses on. I do pose exactly the same, though.

I have a freakishly good memory. The kind of memory that strikes fear in the heart of husbands. Crazy recall. I know I got these jeans from Barbara Moss at the Schuylkill Mall in Frackville, PA for $10. In 1985. I was thirteen years old. Wanna know something *really* scary? At the time, these *were* low rise jeans. I liked that they were the one and only pair of jeans I owned that didn't come up over my navel.
