1988




Hi. I'm GFS also known as Reiko.

This is what I looked like in 1988. Glasses...hairstyle and all.



My students said I looked like Dorothy from The Wizard of Oz.
The Mr. said I looked like Tootie from The Facts of Life.

I agree with both observations. I'm kind of proud too.


Some of you have never heard of Tootie or The Wizard of Oz.  
That's okay.
We will just call this "Geek Chic" for those who are scratching their heads.


Striped Tee c/o Striped Shirt
Gap Skirt (I dyed it yellow last summer)
L.A.M.B. Heels
Target belt
Vintage Train Case
Watch c/o TIKKR Watch
Random chain necklaces
Heart Necklace c/o Love Maegan

Oh girl, you are making me want to get out my glasses! How do you drive, though? I don't have rx sunglasses so I am always afraid of squinting in the daylight too much to wear mine during the day...plus it brings back memories of myself in 1988. Not that cute.

yes, girl! Tootie all the way. Okay, Am I seriously in an age bracket where there are people younger than me who don't know who Tootie is? Damn, where did the time go? Lol!

Either way, you look so stinkin cute...and umm, I thought we were working out a trade agreement for that skirt? Lol. I was gonna give you a pair of Prissy's shoes for it, right?
