    I thought this would be a cute topic.


    I remember one sided pony tails, scrunchees, skip its, the singer tiffany, anything neon, cabbage patch dolls, Jem and the Holligrams, She-ra and He-man, popples, Degrassi High ( a canadian show), leg warmers, bright pink lipstick... and toys were simple, they let us use our childhood imaginations rather than toys of today.


    yes, I'm proud to be a kid of the 80's!


    do you all have good memories?
