I loved wearing leg warmers and having my jeans tight rolled. Oh- and FROSTED jeans! Anyone else?

Bet you were a Flashdance fan too?

Had the leg warmers, but I don't think FROSTED jeans made it here - frosted legs, but frosted jeans, no [Smile]

I still have a pair of leg warmers - I actually use them when I go skating on the canal in winter.

But I never saw frosted jeans either...like Evie said (lol) we see/get lots of frosted legs (and toes and fingers) up here, including those of an ocasional Jean I'm sure, but never saw the frosted jeans that you're talking about.

I was a Fame fan. Loved those dance scenes!

I believe the frosted jeans are a dark denim with white streaks running through them.

Yeah-They look like blue jean and white all mixed together. They were popular in the early 90s, I think it was. I remember I had some that had little slits on the back of the legs and bows at the top of the slits.

I only recently saw Flashdance all the way through. It was good, though.

Guilty of leg warmers!!!

We called the jeans "stoned wash" here...had em!
I also had jeans where the pockets folded over & snapped at the thight. The real ones were called Canadians or something...I couldn't afford them!
Did anyone else put their socks over their pants cuffs?

Our fave outfit for a rock club....our skinny legged jeans w/ the little zippers at the cuffs..our lacey tank top...with a blazer over...
& my pink suede boots w/ fringe!!! And my Bon Jovi hair!!!! [Smile]

Oh my goodness! Socks over jeans! I used to wear layers of socks and I'd slouch them over each other so you could see the colors. I promise-it was cool then! I don't know about now!
