When I first read the topic for the week I was thinking of taking on imagery that focused on so-called 1950s values. Then somehow I got to thinking about being "stuck in the '80s", and immediately this image popped into my mind. I thought why pick on a generation from long ago when my generation has so much to offer.
I think I read somewhere that the reason we get "stuck" in a time period is because it is often those times of the past where we think of ourselves as most appealing. That's probably the reason for so many personal makeover shows.
