Ok, I really did think that I had no embarassing clothing pictures, because my taste in clothing is generally too conservative and boring to provide much hilarity.
I was wrong.
Can you imagine a less flattering dress? Wide shiny band at the waist, giant bubble to make your hips, butt, and legs look big, strange hemline…. And even though my shoulders look as white as my legs, I assure you, I was wearing white nylons but not a white bodysuit.
Also? I am loving my obvious mad curling iron skillz. I was too lazy to do that every day, but apparently I could pull it off as needed.
Thanks to FaceBook, thanks to Jennifer Sommers and her picture taking skills, thanks to date Matt for the awesome yellow corsage, and thanks to senior prom in 1987.
Heeheehee. Hope you enjoyed the laugh as much as I did.

That is hilarious. Also, for some reason I really want to recite: Little miss muffet….
Aww c’mon. I defy you to find a prom dress from the 80s that doesn’t look completely silly in retrospect! Must now go find awesome junior prom picture of myself and Andy Skeels in tuxedos with metal hair and sunglasses, standing in front of his Pinto. Rock!
Dave, did you and Andy take the sisters Radicovich to Jr Prom in his Pinto??? That’s the most awesome detail yet.
Clare, I am NOT wearing a tuffet!
I agree with Dave: 80s prom dresses were, as a rule, uniformly unflattering and often pouffy. Call it fashion relativism!
FWIW: The dress I wore to the Junior prom was a nasty *flocked* pale pink. There was also baby’s breath involved…
The necklace is nice. And your skin looks awesome.
VERY Molly Ringwald circa Pretty In Pink.
This is so awesome. So. Awesome.
