Sali Hughes #32 Here's one moisturiser, now piss off.

[Corbyn'sCat]

Hello, sorry I'm very late with this observation but I haven't been on Tattle for a while... THAT JOY DIVISION JUMPER.

Please don't, Sali. You're nearer to 50 than you are 25. Spending hundreds on a jumper featuring the name of a band who I'm 99.9% certain you can only name one song by is tragic.

She had one with the Smiths on it as well.

 

[Disillusioned]

How very wrong you are, @Corbyn'sCat. Sali was actually moshing it at the band’s legendary final gig in May 1980. Yes, she was very young, but as we know she was a child prodigy when it comes to nightlife. #legalfact

I’m definitely a Gen Xer as I’m in my 47th year. My mum sends me those WhatsApp voice notes when she can’t be bothered to type. I respond back by texting or calling. I don’t think my Gen Z children listen to their Voicemail either.

She wore a Smiths T-shirt to her first *school disco, Chanel and a red lip. It were the first instance of me thinking I was in the wrong place content wise.

*We’re of similar vintage, I wore a turquoise puffball 2 piece from What She Wants.

I can’t remember exactly what I wore but it was almost definitely from Clockhouse at C&A or Tammy Girl and I thought I looked the absolute dog’s bollocks.

 

[Kinvarra]

Clockhouse - for sure thought I was real fancy schmancy.

Oh yeah, and at said disco I had a side pony - well it was a normal pony that I tried to pull and wedge across my head (so it looked neither nor and basically as if I’d just got up).My mum felt actual side ponytails were common ya kno.

I am 43, a millennial (i think) sent me a WhatsApp voice note and I honestly didn’t know what was happening to me. I texted right back.

Same age and I HATE voice notes. For some reason they really freak me out.

That was the era of the (bad)home perm for me, moussed to the max and crispy as hell. I think it would’ve snapped if I’d have tried to tie it up.

 

[Kinvarra]

Perms were a hard no also from Mam. Also *common.

*I am not calling you common, I do apologise, these were not my prejudices - everything I liked or wanted was common, it felt like.

 

[skronkywildcat]

Those jumpers are cashmere, by a brand called Hades and cost hundreds of pounds. They are so try-hard. It pains me slightly to think about the thought process leading up to buying one.

“still cool”
”still got it”
”I remember this band”
”Morrissey is a racist now?”
”tit”

What She Wants, puffball skirts, oh such wonderful fashion and shopping memories. We had some bloody good fashions growing up in the 1980s. These Xennials, millennials and Gen Z don’t know they’re born etc etc.

I wore floor-length polka-dotted black tulle to my school disco. Felt a bit of a twit tbh. Start as you mean to go on...

 

[SqualorVictoria]

That actually sounds amazing!

I thought so!

I'd totally wear that.

 

[Missypissy]

These school disco outfit memories are making my day x just had a flashback to trying to act cool in a highly flammable Lady Di blouse and knicker bockers

Likewise. I had velvet knickerbockers and thought I was the bee’s knees in them. I also had some fabulous purple satin disco trousers.

Influencers wearing Joy Division stuff has been a thing for a while. Not sure if you are aware of Tanya Burr (YouTuber) but she got laughed at in 2016 for it. She also wore a Slits jumper
Is it that they by the nature of their work are very conformist? Their slavish love of consumerism and celebrity and advertising couldn't be less anarchic. Even if they refuse to use a lip brush.

“We are all friends here

you forgot to mention that ‘no one is being rude’
