i hated when girls would curl their bangs and they would be freaking TALL...and then they would let loose a whole bottle of hairspray on them...I know this was an 80's thing...but I remember it in the 90's as well.

Backwards baseball hats - very 1994-ish. People who do that today (thankfully) look pretty silly, LOL.

Were Mohawks considered 80s or 90s?    There were kids in grade school who did that but our world of fashion was slow so I don't know. 
Either way,  Mohawks need to go away forever.

*Guilty* Rave was the perfect spray to do that with :)

I was OVERJOYED to see Spandex Short sets go. Nothing was more disturbing than to see some grown man's buisness all cinched up in tight shorts.

80s (and I think 70s too) but they probably held over into the early 90s.  I bet by then they looked silly though even though present, sorta like backwards caps.

Does anybody remember the All-Star shoes coming back in the 90's?  I wanted the shoes, becuase I saw these kids where em in the TV shows I watched and stuff.  I remember I wore them on my first day of 3rd grade with high white socks, and these checkered pants, with my hair combed to one side.  My mom had dressed me up SO PERFECT, for her standereds.  I thought I looked cool with the shoes.  WHAT A DORK.  And it wasn't even the early 90s, this was 1998, people.  And I can't believe I remember what I wore so well that day (I'm honeslt not clothes obsessed or anything).  It was a new school for me, at the time, we had moved.  My mom wantted me to make a good first-impression, I guess.
