I'm so happy there's no photographic evidence of some of the weird fashion choices I made from ages 13-23. Those ten years were wild.

I had hot fuchsia pleather pants at one point.

That’s so fucking awesome. I used to wear huge JNCO pants and gnarly band shirts and spike my hair in all sorts of colors. I kind of wish there were more photos, it was cool as hell.

Of course. You’ll never take my ball chain necklace from me!

I just remembered when I used to wear multiple belts on wide pants like a JRPG character.

I would like to forget this immediately.

Those pants sound awesome, I'dhave loved them when i was younger. I had a red cardigan with chickens on it, and the buttons were eggs. I called it my egg-cellent cardigan. It was so warm.

I'm very glad that I grew up in an age of film cameras, where photos were expensive, & needed developing!
