New Blue Look Becomes Attics turned into treasure chests as the styles which adorned our par- ents in the old days flared into the new blue scene. Preppie was the name of the game with straight-legged, baggy pants, and blousy, printed shirts. Plaid or printed, full skirts were often coupled with plain knitted sweaters, while the final touch of ele- gance was the very popular lace col- lar. No student would have had a complete wardrobe without some sort of jacket or blazer, in which the wool, quilted and corduroy styles were the favorites. leans maintained much of their former novelyt, but the competition provided by the bright, splashy slack outfits were stiff. Loud yellows, reds and blues often decorated our halls in the form of fashionable garb. Guys were no longer dwarfed by girls ,who wore ladders for shoes, as the once popular flats returned to fame. Very simple, laced shoes with half inch heels were the fad, and besides being the rage, they were much easier on our bodies. it all off were the hats. It HPreppie didn't matter what size, shape or col- or they were, hats were cool , Cowboy hats were especially in, be- ing popular with both guys and gals. Lovely locks were hidden be- neath our caps. Going curly or wavy could make you the most luscious girl in your class. The extra body provided for many new styles, such as french braids and soft clips. The male portion of our school start- ed cropping their hair a little shorter, usually in the form of feath- ering making for a neater appear- ance. They stayed in their unchanging world of jeans and tee-shirts, only occasionally donning bright terries and velours. Tennis shoes, held together by a few strings attached to rubber soles were faithfully shuffled down our halls once again, their owners entan- gled in a web of sentiment, unable to give them up. Such was the new blue look, re- vived from by-gone times, to forever haunt the halls of our memories with wistful remember whens and alonging for the good old days . Ah K DOWN THE AISLE.
