I wore a kangol hat once, gotten taken the piss out of all night. never again.

A white parka. I was 15 and thought I was Liam Gallagher. I even heard comments in the street like "You're in Leeds not ****ing Manchester".

I do still have that parka though. So if anyone wants to buy a Liam Gallagher style parka let me now

..I remember those, my son had one and really baggy jeans as well...hmm, I'm not sure if that was a 'skater look' thing..and he always wore band t-shirts which had to be black..never a colour...mind you, I think my brother wore flared trousers until around 2009..and they came back into fashion..his weren't though..his were the original ones he wore as a teenager...

They were called Beetle Crushers

They were unisex and they were in in the 90's for some bizarre reason, luckily I snapped out of that phase quickly enough

..I just googled them but even with the pretty colours and patterns, they don't look any better do they..I had young children in the 90s, so I guess I must have missed out on that decade of fashion because I was too exhausted to notice..it looks as though I slept through just at the right time though lol....

Most definitely lol ^

I changed to wearing Doc boots with everything soon after that phase

Yeah they were unisex

lostalex · 20-05-2013, 02:08 PM

the spice girls brought back platform shoes.

Vicky. · 20-05-2013, 02:20 PM

Black miniskirt with knee length multicoloured socks and flats..I thought I looked great

Also used to cut holes in my new jeans and stuff, and even my tops. Again, thought it looked good..must have looked like a right tramp

..I actually bought new jeans with holes in Vicky..all frayed and raggy..my dad couldn't quite get his head around that one..and he was probably right...

I wore a lot of emo/scene/goth clothes when I was in my teens including a "Bullet for my Valentine" T-shirt, a ripped shirt smothered in paper clips and a large array of checkered sweatbands that I thought "Hey, I should wear them all at the same time!!!"

..yeah, my son did that as well James..and he wore the armbands from festivals until they fell off his wrist because they were so torn..probably about 6 months....
