Even the 80's ones. I like them. I couldn't wear them even if they looked good on me. People would think I'd just got stuck in a time warp (I was 20 in 1986). I like your style. I don't know why so many people play it so safe, but it's cool when people don't. I'm hoping some of yours will rub off on me. By the way, your blonde hair is great. Mine was Radioactive red last year and I'm waiting for the bleached bits to grow out before going blonde. Never been blonde before, but you have inspired me to go for it. Yeah!
