Subject: Funky clothes you wore as a kid

Written By: BME on 04/05/05 at 7:08 am

I had a  'Glow worm' t-shirt and to this day it's still the best t-shirt I ever owned. Had a kind of polyester finish, light blue I think with a big friendly looking orange, grinning glow worm on the front.

Anyone else remember looking funky in the 70's ?

I used to love the iron on T-shirts! I had one made up of the 'Happy Days' gang and The Rolling Stones.

When I was about three or so, I had these ugly red checkered pants! Not good!

;D I remember one outfit I had that I actually thought was cool..I wore it in Kindergarten..It was a top and matching shorts, blue and white..with a big Red ladybug on the chest and a matching Red ladybug on the left leg of the shorts..And I even had bright Red clogs to march..I loved that outfit!! Those Red clogs not only looked cool but they were a weapon as we'll,  I remember some little boy made fun of me and I clocked him in the eye with one of my clogs..LOL!!!!!!!!!!
