- If You Want It — You Gotta Pay the Price It’s That Ugly Four Letter Word — Work If you want it you have to work for it. You want money and your parents shudder when you so much as whisper the word. What to do? Get a job! Whether it was chasing chil- dren, or service with a smile, many students had after school jobs. Of course, certain jobs were better than others. Some babysat, others had seasonal employment like mowing lawns. Katherine Hinson, Aundrea Downs and oth- ers worked at Day Care after school. Mark Brown and Gil Chason had Saturday hard- ware jobs. Was a little extra cash worth a Friday night of babysitting or getting up at ridiculous hours on Saturday mornings? Could you stand sacrificing the soaps for that after school job? When would you find time for friends, sports or homework? Well ... Those new Guess jeans and sweater were calling you. You had to have a new dress for the dance, and Mom wouldn’t hand over the credit card, plus gas money was at a crucial low. It was worth it when the pay- check was cashed. But there were other benefits of working. Maybe you met a lot of people, a great new guy or girl or maybe you gained experience in the “real world.” Since you were working and had the money for all the things you wanted, when were you sup- posed to go buy them? Well, we could make time for that. A va- cation maybe? A part-time job means big bucks for Clay Tullos, who spends his afternoons and Sat- urdays at Crouch’s doing a variety of jobs including inventory. Jamey Worrell uses a Saturday afternoon lull at the cash register to price items at Bradley’s IGA in Chattahoochee. Jobs

Drake Flournoy and Mary lack Higdon have fun show- ing off the new colors for Guess jeans. Mary Katherine Gregory in her Liz Claiborne outfit and Laura Irwin in her jeans display a casual, hut fun look, both in the hit of the year — turtlenecks. Hard Rock Cafe shirts and sweat- shirts from everywhere, were still a popular item as dis- played by Mike Mock, Jason Layerd, Teri Armstead, and David Chi tty. Forenza sweat- ers rom The Limited, worn by Ina Munroe, Mark Brown, Karen Hayes, Heidi Pickels, and Rebecca Edwards, were a good beginning for fashion in the winter. Gucci watches and clothing, Guess on anything rom shirts to socks, and Keds in every color or design made the top of the sporty list. Little kids David Rogers, Fletcher Finn, and Jeremy Romeiko show their love or converse high tops in any shade; and big kid Angel Whiddon joins in. Brown leather accessories such as belts, flat shoes, short boots, and watches were the look of the year. It’s What You Make Of It! The year's newest mixture of colors — black and white — are worn by Katie Hook and Jeanie Ziegler. Andrew Hood, Melissa Alexander, Adam Burns, Jay Brooks, Bethany Bostick, and Lara Leigh Wil- liams show off the year’s newest look in acid washed jeans. Wendy Bannister, Lau- ra Alexander, Tracy Worrell, Sunshine Gauss, and Beth Thomas model Outback Red’s four button shirt. Liz Claiborne purses came in every shape and color and were filled with anything rom hairspray, money, gum, and keys to hairbrushes, makeup, and nail files. Old names! New looks! Fashion for the year brought us no new names, but old names with new ideas, new colors, and new ways to be worn. A new idea for jeans was acid washed which old favorites like, Lee, Levis, and others soon adopted. Guess took on new colors such as black, beige, and white. Out- back Red remained a leader and provided new looks like a four button shirt and a Forenza sweater in every im- aginable color. The look for accessorizing was brown leather belts, purses, and shoes worn with anything from jeans to skirts. Silk scarves and brown leath- er watches were added to the list. Gold and silver jewelry were both worn, but not heavily. Liz Claiborne led the way for “toting” around one’s possessions. The year went on to bring a new mixture of colors. Black and white stripes, polka dots, and checks were seen on eve- ryone, and the McKids clothes became an instant hit with the younger crowd. Casual and contemporary, but yet bold and bright cloth- ing is what made the year. Everyone had their own way of wearing each, and had fun mixing and matching. Fashion 15
