I still have 3 pairs of clogs
I have 2 pairs of jeans with flared legs AKA bell bottoms
Those long jean skirts we are currently wearing...70's oh yeah and they still look ok.
no halter tops though - no longer a pretty sight 
I do still have a few pieces that I recently made that were Mod-retro (late 60's very early 70's) that I wear. It's mostly the fabrics that are Mod in an a-line style dress and skirt/top. Still flattering and still pretty with heels or sandals.

I was a huge fan of Olga Korbut. I would say she was the one that made gymnastics fashionable, long before Nadia. But, I'm sure all girls that played the piano learned how to play Nadia's Theme. I bought the sheet music. kd

You thought a Firebird with the big decal on the hood was really cool.

David Cassidy was a cutie pie.
I won a dance contest in 1974 for the "bump" at our teen club. It was the double bump that got the prize. 
In 1978, I was working at Arthur Murray teaching the hustle to all the people wanting to disco. I hated disco, but it was good money.
I was in love with a 67 mustang. But everybody was driving those 442's that came out in what? 75 or 76?
Oh my and remember the Pacer - look a giant boiled egg.

When I talked on the CB, it bled on to the record player in my sister's room & she'd always tell on me - the little brat! Did ya'll like "Convoy?" Do ya'll remember your handle? kd

My handle was the Lizard King
But my little brother called me Fanny Farkle - remember them on Laugh-In?
The Farkle Family - they were all redheads with big freckles

That's funny- we were always allowed to wear blue jeans to school... of course, I went to school in farm country!

I was a "Dancing machine"kid.
WE used to play "Sonny and Cher" we would always argue who was gonna be Cher, we put long black material on our hair, and swing it back and forth and sing...
I got you, Babe.
My avatar is me dancing to the music. In the "70's!

You remember that a Frito Bandito eraser was a prized possession.
You or your friends scrounged soda pop bottles for extra money.

 Ay, yi, yi, yi I am the Frito Bandito!
And the tabs from soda cans - the ones that actually came off and most people stuck down inside the can before drinking? I made chains with them to hold back the curtains in my bedroom.
Oh and I had real wooden beads in my bedroom doorway. I really liked them cause I could storm into my room and slam the door and the beads would make this really loud clacking noise ... ya know...just to prove my point of being an obnoxious teenager.

LOL! I made a chain too, but I think I just hung it on my dresser mirror.
I had a great black light poster that was like a bulls eye. Today that thing would give me a headache.
I also had a poster about what to do in case a nuclear bomb was dropped.
But my favorite poster was a door sized poster that was a cartoon picture of a stool, and the caption read: sometimes i sits and thinks, and sometimes i just sits.

I didn't do the pet rock thing, but I did buy my dad a Chia Pet.
I had Einstein's Evolution of Man poster on my wall ( at least I think that's the name of it)
And a door size poster of Roman Gabriel (football player) on the back of my door...hubba hubba 
My blacklight posters were inside my closet along with the blacklight where I could open the doors, put on some music and enjoy the ambience of
well...I don't really know what that was all about

Roman Gabriel!!! Remember the Roman Gabriel grip at Burger King? I can't remember if it was for a Whopper or those wonderful Yumbos they used to sell (ham & cheese).
What hamburger was it that Joe Namath used to advertise? kd

Roman Gabriel came to one of our local Burger King's and I stood in line for like 4 hours just to get his autograph - I still got it, too!  He was so cute!
I dunno about Namath - wasn't crazy about him,I just remember the panty hose commercials and calling him Broadway Joe.
