Day 9: What have been some of the fashion/beauty trends you've worn over the years?
Oh, I have no sense of style or fashion or "trendy things". I've fallen victim to LOTS of bad fashion trends over the years. :) Of course at the time, I didn't realize I wasn't cool. I'm slowly realizing I'm STILL not cool. Oh well, I'm pretty good at posting embarrassing pictures of myself on my blog, so why stop now. :)

| Since I'm so young in these pictures, can we just blame my parents for these fashion blunders? Or at least blame being a child of the late 70's, early 80's? Yeah, far left is from my kindergarten class picture. I don't know what's worse- the fact that I don't match or the fact I tried to "roll" my pants. And yes, I had "home-cut" bangs. I love the top right where the bangs are uneven. The middle picture is probably the last time I felt comfortable showing my stomach. I'm loving the bottom right where I'm wearing a turtle neck and shorts. |
 |
| My love of The New Kids on the Block is no secret. I will proudly admit that I wore my NKOTB shirt all the time! If you didn't, well, you just weren't cool. :) |
 |
| Senior Prom. I'm not sure what is worse here, my bangs or my Brooke Shields-like eyebrows. |
 |
| Oh yes, I was one of "those" kids who wore my letter jacket. No need to mention it was for being a |
 |
| Just some of my many hair dying jobs over the years. I was blonde when I was a kid and kept dying my hair blonde until about 7 years ago. My personal favorite is when my niece and I tried this "strawberry blonde" color and our hair went red (second picture from left). I'm not sure whose foot that is bottom right, I THINK it belonged to the guy I was dating at the time. |
 |
| Anyone else remember when henna tattoos were popular? Was I the only one who thought that? I was too chicken to get a real one. |
 |
| For some reason I went through this period where I wore fake glasses (the lens were made from a clear plastic material). No, I don't need to wear glasses. Guess I was trying to look smart? Not sure what I was thinking. |
 |
| Hey- high socks rock!! The picture to the left can be blamed on the fact that I was about eight. The picture on the right was from a few years ago when I proved to myself I could still fit into my junior high gym socks. I am a nerd. |
 |
| I was one of the cool kids that got a Snuggie. Actually, I think this is a "Slanket"- the red-headed stepchild to the Snuggie. |
 |
| I absolutely love toe socks. If anyone can find a pair of Texas Rangers toe socks, I will love you forever and name my first born after you. Okay, maybe not that, but I will thank you on my blog! :) |
 |
| Not really a fashion trend, but the "duck lips" pose took social media by storm a while back. I mainly pose like this to annoy my friend who can't stand duck lips. :) |
 |
| After years of being a tom-boy, I finally channeled my inner "girly-girl" and started dressing up for fun (and not because my mother was making me). :) |
Okay, please share your fashion trends, blunders, try and convince me I wasn't the only person who never had style. Hope everyone has a great weekend!
XOXO!
