(Not Such A) Dedicated Follower of Fashion

It's not often that I post pictures of myself on here but you have to remember that I'm a child of the 70s and 80s and my whole fashion sense and style is hampered by that fact.  I can't really blame my mum for my early years.  I was probably kinda trendy at the time, even if I did look like a boy at certain intervals.

early, mid and late 1970s

My entry into high school opened my eyes wide.  Suddenly music and fashion choices were tantamount to survival.  In the 80's you couldn't really get it wrong - loud and proud was the call of the day.  These two photographs encapsulate everything I thought was "fashion" in the 80s.  I was a bit under the radar if I think back.

Anyway, none of these can top the photo I found in the depths of the photo pile.  I'm sure there are much worse than this but all my photos are at my sister's house.  I got custody of the albums when mum died and it's her turn to look after them this year.  I really need to get hold of them again and have a mass scanning-in session.  

So, behold, the best worst picture I could find...  and, no, I have no idea what is going on with my fringe but I think it adds to the ambiance of it all.
