6647 One of the few good things about going to school this past year was be- ing able to see all the different trends. Some lasted and some died off right away. Whatever the case, the trends were examples of one's personal style, whether it was in the way you dressed, styled your hair, or the kind of car you drove. The most popular and common trends this year were set in the kinds of clothes you wore and how you wore them. One of the newcomers to the fashion world and one of the most successful was acid-washed clothing. However, just as successful were the comeback of the mini skirt, trench coats, and tie-dyed clothes. Accesso- ries were greatly popular this year. Many people gave each other friend- ship bracelets. Also, safety pins were considered in and used as accents on iackets or shirts or were used to peg pants. Foot wear was a source of originality this year. Many people could be seen wearing boots-some even wore cowboy boots. An alterna- tive to wearing tennis shoes were big roach stompers called creepers. Another way people showed their style was in their hair. One could tell that hair spray was popular leven though it always has beenl. Many people, mostly surfers and skaters. got a step in their hair to show their style. Many girls wore their hair very high, and were iokingly called hair bears. Some people used their transportation as a way to show their taste. Tom Hempler drove his nostal- gic '57 Chevy to school this year. Ke- vin Alsobrook inherited a new car also. His Austin-Healy could be ad- mired throughout the school year. All in all, the year was full of new and exciting sights. lt didn't matter if you weren't like eveyone else be- cause it was a way to show your per- sonal style rather than being trendy. cas' ,,...
