THROWBACK THURSDAYS


Okay, Then and Now Thursday has undergone a makeover.

A couple weeks ago, my good friend and fellow writer, KM Wilsher, called it “Throwback Thursday” I thought, “Oh wow, I love that.” So, she let me steal it. She’s got a gift for coming up with sweet one liners–Oh, and brainstorming titles for my novels ☺

So, for our first entry in the newly named theme for Thursday…

Madonna with braceletsJelly bracelets.

Okay, so, how many ladies out there remember loading up their wrists with a zillion black jelly bracelets and heading out to the roller rink?

LOL. I’m raising my hand.

Waving it actually-oh, and laughing with the memory.

Anything to look like Madonna in the 80s right?

    I’m sure you were too young to remember the ’80’s version πŸ™‚

    I didn’t wear that many jelly bracelets in the 80’s I was into leather studded cuffs and chains. . .you know the rocker/goth/punk girl πŸ™‚
    I did do the jelly shoes!

    Yeah, Lynn, anything to look like Madonna, or was it Vince Neil?

    Their popularity returned in early 2000 and all the girls in middle school went ballistic. I can definitely remember them, I still have a few safely tucked away as a reminder.

    You just sparked a memory of a Q&A article I once read in Bop Magazine. (Yeah, it was a loooong time ago.) They were talking to the lead singer of A-Ha, and he said one of his favorite accessories was black jelly bracelets.

    Well, that did it. After that, everyone was wearing them. πŸ™‚
