This Memory is looking a little short on nostalgia! Have you got anything you could add?

Luminous pink, yellow or green. Take your pick! Socks, fingerless gloves, leg warmers, ear-rings, bangles..... as long as they shone brighter than anything else you were wearing then that was fine. Socks were usually non-matching (one yellow, one pink) and you had another pair at home EXACTLY THE SAME.

    I had the fingerless gloves and socks in the late eighties.

    1989 was the guilty year! I got money for my 13th birthday and went out and bought a day glo yellow blouse, pink socks, a pink stripey T shirt and a pair of multi-coloured day glo Bermuda shorts, then wore the whole lot to the disco. Ouch!

    I used to a few articles of day glo clothing. It's making a re-appearance at the moment. I can't help but cringe.

    i had a pair of them... black and yellow..but my leavers day photo from school has to be the best! Everyone else in my class looked ok. I however decided to mark my last year at school in: a bright orange day glo tshirt, long black shorts, bright pink day glo socks, baseball boots and sun glasses hanging from a pink day glo cord!!! At least i looked "cool"
