A cellphone! Only the rich kids had them.
In middle school I remember the big thing was Nike Airs and Starter Jackets with your favorite team. Mine was the Charlotte Hornets, only because I liked the colors. lol

DF,
You start these threads asking us all these questions. My question to YOU, is what was cool when YOU were in HS?

Funny you should bring this up, because a co-worker and I were talking just this afternoon about how we used to wear Love perfume (pre-baby soft for me!) in high school.
Beside that:
Jordache and Levis jeans
Candies and earth shoes
mini skirts or granny dresses

Yes, I graduated in 1967. The 60''s were an uneasy time. Lost many classmates to drugs and Vietnam.

I graduated in ''98. The COOL thing to have was a great truck. (yes, another midwesterner!) Vehicles were such a big deal, our prom premiere was actually outside! We drove down the hill around the school so everyone could admire the beauties. Then, we had valets that helped us out and drove our vehicles off to ''oohs'' and ''aahs''. BUT, none of them were less than 5 years old. Most of them were jacked up with big mud tires! In this neck of the woods, mom and dad NEVER buy you a car.
Vaguely remember the dark lipliner/light lipstick thing. Lots of flannel, jeans and boots. We didn''t even have a ''popular'' group. With only a hundred kids in the school, you''re all friends.
ETA- I just remembered the other ''thing'' at my high school. Our Science teacher (yes, we had ONE. He taught everything from Earth Science to Anatomy to Physics) had loads of VHS tapes. It was the job of all to confiscate the tapes and rerecord stuff. Sometimes it was really INAPPROPRIATE, if you know what I mean. But, we were also good for music videos. There is one that is still lasting at the school (I know because my sis just graduated) It''s a video of ''Call Me Al''. We watched it everyday at lunch time. People frequented the halls singing, ''Na na na na. Na nana na na na. Na na na na.''
My gosh - I wore that stuff when I was in junior high! I have the Olan Mills pictures to prove it (black leather mini and white bustier). I was 14. I can't believe my parents let me out of the house like that.Date: 6/11/2008 12:29:19 AM

I also wore Candies mules and Roots earthshoes, and I had my share of micro mini's. When I went to the Roxy and The Troubador and The Rainbow I wore North Beach Leather strapless leather mini' dresses and stilettos, or their mini skirts and bustiers. Sometimes I even wore fishnets. A couple of girls and I used to go and hang out in the early 80's, when Ratt and Motley Crue and Great White were starting out. I used a ton of spray to get that big hair on a girl in a rock video look, and lots of black eyeliner, frosty pink lipstick or red lipstick. I wore earrings that looked like feathers made out of metal or huge hoops. It was a kind of trashy look but still we thought it looked great! Met a couple of rock stars that way!
You were so cute!!! Love the hair (and the car)!Date: 6/11/2008 12:04:50 AM
