Heh. Very true! The 80's fashions are just more expensive nowadays compared to what they were then.
Yeah, those were cute, but I wasn't sure about felt on plastic. you can buy them here though. I liked this similar style (almost looks like they'd be worn on the Jetsons by Judy.. bwah!), but unfortunately they're out of stock there and cannot be found in the US stores :(
I really hate plastic shoes (have you seen the Crocs that are the latest trend? They're positively nasty) but those shoes and in that color are unfortunately cute. I give you my blessing. Go buy them.
Ugh.. yeah. I had forgotten about those. Crocs are pretty bad... I bet if it wasn't for the supposed comfort factor, no one would buy them, but I can't speak for all the crazies ;D
I'll take pictures in these if they end up being in stock!
p.s. sort've offtopic, but are lucky jeans a true fit? I was looking around on eBay and found some for half off new with tags, but don't want to consider them if there's no way to know for sure. I measured my current jeans and it seems I'd fit a size 26/2, but yeah... this may be a moot point if someone else bids on them at the last minute (like I'm considering doing... heh), but for future reference.
depends on the style. i have the maggies in a 26 and they fit so perfectly and comfortably that i bought 2 pairs. i practically live in them. but i remember when we tried jeans on at the store, mom fit in a 25 in a different style. granted, she has a smaller waist than me, but her hips are definitely bigger. (it was some relaxed fit style). so keep that in mind, but you'll probably fit just right in the 26 as long as it's not a baggier style.
Yeah, it's hard to tell on eBay since they all look rather 'eh'... on the lucky brand website, it's easier to tell how they'd fit, so I was going based on those photos.
I did find out there's a lucky brand store near the mall o_O ...but I doubt I'll make it there before the end of this auction (it's been raining... mom hates the rain :P) + probably once I'm in the store I'd be too tempted to buy them right then, but yeah, this is all good to know.
I noticed the diff. in waist sizes amongst the styles. I found the lil' maggie and it almost seemed like it'd be too small in the waist. my current jeans measure 14.5 across the waist flat and those, according to one seller, are 12.5 across. The ones I was looking at are the lola bootleg.. what inseam do yours have? I saw they can be gotten in a short version (29.5), but all the ones on eBay are between 31-34.
