Merry Christmas (1982 style of course) ! I think my absolute favourite look is the purple dress with the gorgeous neck ruffle in the fourth image, as a matter of fact I might try and replicate that look for the big day tomorrow!!
Images from vintage magazines of the 70's, 80's and (sometimes) 90's

I love the sandals and coloured stocking look. I remember the Nice Things store in Oxford st Paddington it sold accessories. More eighties please it brings back so many memories and makes me feel a bit sad......I'll have to work out why.
ReplyDeleteThe reason it makes you sad is that modern life now is so boring compared to this time!!
DeleteI think it makes me sad because life was relatively carefree. I earned a few bucks working in the Pharmacy and I went straight to Paddington markets or Sportsgirl and spent it. I have such fond memories of going to Sportsgirl in the Pitt st Mall in Sydney. I had cash ! I was with my mates ! everything was pretty and shiny !

I have been looking at these on Pinterest & so annoyed l parted with my Dolly magazines. But l think l have kept 2 as my cousins were both in these issues. Loving your blog & tripping back to such an important time in fashion & these treasured magazines
ReplyDeleteI wish there was an indicator to who the model in the picture is. She is gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteI later dig some digging, and it's highly likely to be Jenny Coupland. She looks almost identical to how she did in the November 1981 cover.
