Recently, I decided to re-watch the tragically short-lived tv series, "Freaks and Geeks," while I edit etsy listings. I can't believe I forgot how incredible the clothes were during that time. A transitional stage in fashion, where the hippy bohemian style was beginning to fade out to make way for the mid and late 80s day glo, ruffles and big hair. BEFORE the day glo and aqua net came, there was a sweet spot of fashion that is often underestimated. That's the pocket of style I'm inspired by right now.
In order to get myself out of a lousy mood the other night, I decided to scour the interwebs and immerse myself in pictures of the fashions of the late 70s and early 80s. I was particularly focused on middle school and high school styles, so I began my google search with class pictures from then. Let me just share what I found.

| These sweaters are perfection and tons of knee high socks in various colors are on my wish list. |
 |
| Check out that sweet yellow suit the girl in front is wearing. |
 |
| Plaid pants! And those knee highs. |
 |
This family makes me smile.
Plaid pants and legit white boy afros. |
 |
| and speaking of legit afros |
 |
| Stripes and bell bottoms and long hair don't care. |
 |
| That sweater! |
Of course, let's not forget what got me thinking about this wonderful time in fashion, in the first place.
 |
| The geeks are my favorite. Especially Bill. |
 |
| I've been coming across these velour button up shirts quite a bit lately and I could not be more happy about it. |
 |
| the stripes |
 |
| jean jacket. army jacket. |
Sport these styles and you will most definitely.....
be cool
