Anybody remember making chains from Fruit Stripe gum wrappers? ....in jr high (early 60's) it was penny loafers, and anything navy or maroon - pleated skirts were big. Fun thread to read!

There was only one girl in our town who had a horsehair petticoat and we wanted something so we made them out of real screenwire - ouch!
|
When I was in high school, girls were not allowed to wear pants .......

Ramona, I remember those electric perms too. I had long pretty hair and it was time to go to school so had to go get it cut short and curled to the scalp. Then it fell out for months. Thank God I only had one. I think they were rather expensive. Maybe that is what saved me.

I graduated in 1975. Our fads were plaid pants for the guys and girls, platform shoes, straight hair parted in the middle and gold metal granny glasses.
Those were the carefree days of youth. Isn't it nice to remember them. Peace and Blessings, |

I must really be older than dirt. Some of the things that you're all referring to, I've never even heard of - jelly shoes, hot pants and dogs - is that short shorts and walking your dog? always heard that walking a dog is a good way to meet a nice guy.
BTW, we had to complete Driver's Ed in order to graduate High School. 1958 |
