I am STILL looking for that photo of me and Roger Daltrey in England in 1983. I keep finding more photos from that trip, but no Roger yet. WTF. I must have put the picture in a “safe place.” I wish I’d stop putting things there, because the “safe place” and the “Bermuda Triangle” are apparently one and the same. Things just disappear forever.
Anyway, I did find another picture of me, in England, wearing the white Capezio jazz shoes that were wildly popular in ’83.
I remember that white top with the puffed shoulders so well. What I don’t remember is why I or anyone else thought those shoes looked good. I still love tons of ’80s fashion, but not those white jazz shoes. Capezio’s website now doesn’t even have them in white, just black and beige. I think those are better choices!
The 80s white shoe/boot phenomenon has always baffled me. Who thought that was a good idea??
Especially with the elongated shape of the jazz shoe. I’ve got some white boots now that have a much more attractive cut. But the Capezios? #justsayno
