    Ha ha we got a lad with sun in on an RAF camp, turned his head orange too, that tight curly perm I was thankfully talked out of aswell.

    Worst incident with MORE has to be my Dad found it and had nothing to read in the bath, came in my room and threw it at me :) oops

    Fuzzy Peach and White Musk were just as sickly as Dewberry!

    Shell suits, god they were a fire hazard.

    Tiny black and white dresses with black and white trainers, I looked like something from the Bassett's factory.

    Ok it's late 80s but I was a bit of a 'Bros'ette with my ripped jeans, boots and bottle tops, oh god did I need to admit that lol.
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

    Cheap ones, sheesh, mine were real I tell ya!!! I had an 'I love Bros' top and jacket aswell. Saying that I also went to see NKOTB in concert ;)

    Bodysuits, oh god I remember trying to go for a pee in those things aswell as your 50 deniers on, woah!! I had a great bodysuit (well I thought it was then) which was hotpants style, used to wrap my skirt around it then when I got into the nightclub my friend the DJ would look after it for me.

    I still have a wrap round somewhere, not that it'll fit now, and a few waistcoats (I did have over 20 inc those with pin stripes, but I had to clear some out) They were for girls aswell as I proved, wasn't small chested and they definately emphasised what I had lol. Few skirts with splits, Pretty Woman boots, boots with excess laces, anything with LYCRA.

    Make up - now you're talking, make sure you have an eye liner and a lip liner which is darker than your lippy. Sprakly tended to be a big thing, think that was Whigfield inspired.
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

    OMG! Only just found this thread, you could get them the new Take That single, even Chris Moyles admitted it was good. What about some Diamond White, or get them a Now 45 (or whatever it was then) with all the songs from the day. Pretty Woman and Four Weddings must have been out about then. You could also get them some lovehearts and drumstick lollies as sweets! I also used to love White Musk and also the bodyshop little bath oil balls.

    I can remember sneaking into nightclubs at 16 and drinking Taboo and Lemonade and feeling sooo sophisticated. I can then remember the whole nightclub getting on the dancefloor and standing in rows dancing to Whigfield... ahhhh those were the days!
