(11,795 posts)Its coming back, but it was so fried it was time to start from scratch. Went basically full military just to get all the broken hair and split ends removed. With Covid and working at home keeping it in a ponytail for days on end, it was just fucked. Shaved it and now on a regimen of gelatin capsules to grow it back as fast as possible!

(23,094 posts)My huge octogon pink wire rim glasses, why did I ever love them so much when they were so large and bright and heavy? Thin cotton halter tops and cut off shorts were another questionable choice. I finally got tired of getting harassed and started wearing clothing with more coverage and the harassment went down. Stupid that I couldn't wear what I wanted and what looked good because asshole men took it personally and thought I was dressing for them so they were free to comment. Jerks! But I finally got that this is a jerk world and I could reduce some of the friction by wearing clothing with more coverage, and less strange, out in public.

(48,971 posts)hiphugger bell bottoms, gauzy peasant tops, platform heels (unless I had to meet someone I knew was shorter who might be insecure, and then I'd wear flats). But I didn't like harassment and would sometimes walk blocks out of my way to avoid construction sites, especially in NYC.
I once splurged on an emerald green designer jumpsuit for an event where my date and his friends were wearing tuxes (his friends' wives were wearing long gowns), but it wasn't a skintight or revealing jumpsuit, more '40s glam with wide legs and a wrap top. Never owned a tight jumpsuit or catsuit, though I envied Diana Rigg's wardrobe on The Avengers.
I liked the wild clothes so many musicians of my generation would wear. Though the outfits also make me laugh at times now. Saw a video the other day that I thought of posting, but my favorite musician in that band was wearing a gold bib overall without a shirt, and it wasn't one of his better fashion decisions.
