I've missed having the question of the day, so I thought I'd start it up again... if Susie doesn't mind!


Your entire wardrobe has been mysteriously stolen. Itâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]s just gone. You must replace the whole wardrobe, but you can only buy clothes from the following decades. Which decade will you choose?

The 20s?
The 50s?
The 70s?
or
The 80s?

Here... or There... Hmmm
I'm torn between 1950's and 1970's. I have to remember I am fat and the 70's has a lot of tight long designs that wouldn't go good on me, but they did have some cute ones too! So... one of either!

While I will do 70's - just wanted to mention - not all 70's - no disco for me. Like the music - not the clothes!

Since I was in high school in the 80's, I have to go with 80's.

I'm probably in the same boat, my fashion sense says 70's would be more fashionable now, but my curves say 50's...bring on those dresses!

1920s definitely. I have some of my relatives' old flapper stuff stored away at my moms house. It's such cool stuff.

I don't have the right body type for the flapper clothes, but I love the styles nonetheless.

If I wanted to actually flatter my figure, I'd go with the 1950s-style clothing.

while I LOVE the go-go looks from the 70's, the plunging neck lines, the narrow legged pants & bell bottoms, I am very cury, with a JLo booty.... so I'd have to go with the 50's.... nothing like an A line to make you look tiny!

That is what I was thinking! I think it would be fun to get to wear all the stuff from the 20s.
