Weather is V. bad so don't know if he''ll be able to come up but I hope so
I got to thinking tonight 'I wonder what advertisements influenced a 70s Teen all those years ago?' So I started to surf YouTube. There are loads on there I can tell you. I have had to whittle the selection down, which is a shame.
The ones I have chosen are all to do with looking & feeling good ... the 'must haves' being a Teen
Firstly your hair had to look just perfect (what am I saying I had just had a curly perm!!!).
These first 3 what a hoot? Those plumy English accents
Super Soft
Harmony Hairspray
No I don't remember this advert but I do remember sewing the 'smiley face' and 2 fingered US peace patch to my jeans
Wonderbra- wish I would have had a Wonderbra. I don't think I discovered such a thing until much, much later
Now the perfume I wore rive gauche by YSL for years
Loved Charlie in fact it has had a revival as my teen and her mates use Charlie body spray
I so remember this one
& your eyeshadow... not lilac though!!
You know I found a fantastic advertisement... totally unrelated to make-up, feeling good, fashion etc but from the 70s.... can I find it now after surfing at a tangent? can I heck!! How frustrating!

I don't remember Rive Gauche but the girl who's so contemporary, the one who's having too much fun to marry, she's not sitting home by the phone, if she wants to go she goes it alone ... she sounds fantastic.
Is she or isn't she? ;-)
hey I used to wear Rive Gauche! I thought the blue and silver packaging was sooo cool back then
It is relative to what part of your life you are at I suspect ......
I liked the sports car though you wouldn't get a husband and 3 screaming kids in that would you. Only just enough room for your Louis Vuitton vanity case
NM~ yes it was so 'contemporary' I think it was to get away from the stuffy French perfumes our mum's would wear ... I wonder if you can still buy it???
yes, I'm sure I've seen it in those specialty perfume shops that stock the good, the bad and the ugly.
yep here it is .. I didn't think it would be so expensive !!
