Life of the Pink Spandex...

Let me start out by telling you all that living in Provo brings out the strangeness in me. Ok, wait, I was weird beforehand, too. Once upon a time ago (senior year...) I had to dress in crazy/bright clothes for the first day of school. Why? Because we were having an assembly, and as a student council member I had to dress crazy and dance on stage to signify the theme "Stand Out" that we had chosen. That's where this weirdness all started. In my quest for some bright clothing I was looking through our families costume box and came across some wonderful, hot pink, full body spandex. Where did this wonderful item come from? Apparently they were Kim's when she was younger (as in.. 7 or so)... from gymnastics or something? All I know is that they were perfect, and I needed to wear them. That's where it all started...

I then wore them for part of a Halloween costume that same year...


And then again for this horrible date auction I had to be in (Lucky for you I don't have any pictures of that event on my computer.)

There aren't many opportunities to wear this wonderful piece of clothing, however I've found one use that might make them become even more frequent in my wardrobe. What is this wonderful event I have come to love? 80's DANCING! Hahahaha Yes, now you can all be worried :)

I know, I know. It's not completely "80's"... It's more just... well, crazy. But it's so much fun to just be able to dress up and look like whatever. Plus, not many people own such wonderful spandex as I do.


Me and Stacie were quite the duo in our 80's attire. We were so bright and colorful. Needless to say we were given multiple compliments throughout the night on our wardrobe. Had we made it to the dance earlier I'm sure we would have won a medal...


This Picture I had to make nice and large simply so you could all get the full effect of our makeup and hair. Yes, Stacie was far more 80's than me.. but I think she can pull it off better. Her bangs were amazing, with an insane amount of hairspray to top it all off. My side ponytail? Classic.
Ok, so maybe this isn't really what people looked like in the 80's. (We didn't live through them for all too long...) But, we certainly enjoyed ourselves. :)
