What was your favorite fad? (fad = something that was really popular but quickly faded out of popularity)

In the 70s...pet rocks. So silly, but it made the man who "invented" them rich. The guy came the town next to my home town, so it being a local "thing" made it even more fun.
80s... Probably parachute trousers. My husband looked pretty good in them!

During the seventies, it had to be mood rings, and skateboards.... into the eighties, we went from preppy to punk, which included the likes of parachute pants, and belts made out of motorcycle chains...Thanks for the memories...

Ok, I am not that old (30)! I remember the big/stand-up by themselves bangs, sam&Libby slippers, rompers (looked like a clown outfit, 1pc big legs fit around ankles), jean jackets, tie-dye shirts, and to pull tight and roll-up the bottom of your jeans around the ankles.......ok that is enough really feeling old now....lol

I wore paisley bell-bottomed jeans and paratrooper boots to church one sunday. I conned my parents into it by saying God only cared that I was there, and didn't care what I wore. lol
