    I'm 55 years of age so the crimes would be far too many to mention. I suspect I might be still be committing one or two now. I wonder what we'll be cringing at 15 or 20 years from now?

    Jumpsuits! I remember wearing those, I think I had a tartan one with fringes on like a western shirt. Oh, the horror! I'm not grateful for you bringing back that memory Amanita.

    Truth is, there are only about 20 people in the world who can wear yellow and none of them are people I know

    I think this too - I wonder if, in 20 years, I'll think 'I cannot believe I wore that floral dress/gladiator sandals/playsuit/Ugg boots/skinny jeans/delete as applicable.

    Oh and another heinous crime in my fashion history - a black velvet floppy hat with a massive flower on the front worn with red velvet culottes and a huge t-shirt with a rabbit on the front. I blame my mother.

    The awful sweatshirts with pictures on. The jeans with turn ups of a different colour. Track suits (boys ones). The jumpers that my Mum made on her knitting machine, pale blue v necks- mine with a mahoosive K on the front and my big sis with a mahoosive T! (Oh the shame!!!).
    Huuuuuuuge purple suede trainers with the massive tongue!

    The best one? We lived with my Auntie and Uncle and were going on school camp. We needed some bits but cousin had a tummy bug. Aunty and Uncle mid extenision and living with cousin downstairs, sis & I upstairs and Uncles Dad upstairs too. 2 days before camp- it's not a tummy bug, it's appendicitis. Aunty in hospital with cousin, Uncle has been thrust a list of stuff to get. He takes us into town and reads the list- Kaz shorts.
    So we go looking. I pick up a nice pair of white shorts with deck chairs all over them. When we get on camp someone points out that they have a hole in the front. We examine them in great depth and decide that they've been sown up wrong but it'll never show (LOL). We were only about 9 so we didn't know what boxers were!

    Leggings in general really -
    When I was pregnant with DD leggings were all the rage! I had black and navy ones which I wore to death out side work as they were so comfy:o. But now the thought of pregnant and in leggings:eek::eek::eek::eek:
