I used to have a pair of shoes similar to the green and black ones but in light blue. Got sent home from school for wearing them.

I love it! Back to my youth 🙂
And we are seeing colours and patterns like that in some shop windows for this spring.

I suppose everything goes round full circle eventually. Pity, if I still had hair I could re-grow my mullet! 🙂

I had similar shoes – can you blame me? I’m only five foot and if the others were wearing plateau soles and I didn’t, I would get a crick in my neck! Love the blast from the past!

On the whole it wasn’t a great decade, but it was quirky in terms of fashion. I sometimes cringe when I see the clothes I was wearing back then.

I see a poster of Bowie as Ziggy Stardust in the bg. I remember him at the Hammersmith Odeon.

Very envious I couldn’t get a ticket. Possibly his greatest ever performance.

I lived near Hammersmith at the time so I was lucky to get a ticket.

How could you even walk in those shoes? 🙂 Isn’t it funny how often fashion will come around again even if slightly different?

I remember trying to run in something similar it turned into a fast hobble! But the point was that I looked very cool in them 🙂

Lots of fashion is that way, isn’t it? Form over function.

Love this. I got married in a pair of platform white patent leather round-toe wingtips (in 1973).

White corduroy suit with bell-bottom pants (sewn by my bride, who also made her own dress, the bridesmaids dresses, and the groomsmen’s purple corduroy jackets… and more) white shirt, lavender satin bow tie. Stylin’!
