Slouch socks in the 80's! My daughter wanted them, I thought they were so stupid, but it was that or biker shorts under baby doll dresses, so i went along with it. Of course, gave in on the biker shorts/dress later!! Funny thing, all of those things have come "back in style" at one time or another, once or twice in the decades to follow! My GD loves to try to hoola hoop and I just gave my son's Teddy Ruxpin to his daughter and she adores him! Oh, don't forget the 90's "did I do thaaat?" - Steve Erkel!!
