Old things

Old things make me smile. Today I was thinking about some of the things I wore in high school;

We put patches on jeans where we didn't need them. We sewed pockets on the inside of our bells to hide our cigarettes ;-)

 We made our own jean skirts out of....old jeans

 And we made purses out of our old jeans.

And the shoes!!

I wore out several pairs of these. They still make them. Man are they uncomfortable now!

We wore these a lot too, from Pier 1, cheap! They came in black or dark red.

Pretty sure I had a pair just like these :-) Shoes were heavy then.

I had THESE!!! Red Frye boots. OMG I loved those boots. 

I also had a pair of these lace up Bass boots!!!

And everybody had these "desert boots"

And these babies? I still have them. These exact boots. I wore them. My brother wore them. They're never going to wear out. I bet they weight 5lbs each.

These are Earth shoes. I never had any though. I thought they were dumb. 

 I had a couple pair of this style, with the cutout in the heel.

I love shoes. I used to have A LOT of shoes! Now I'm old too so I just have flat, comfy shoes. So looking back makes me smile :-)

I had a pair of rainbow toe socks that I wore with my platform sandals from The Merry-Go-Round, along with a red satin blazer. Yep. The 70's were SO fun!
