Hill Valley will be recreated in a secret London location, complete with a lightning-struck clock tower and Hill Valley High.
Goonies never say die. Literally. Because apparently they’re all going to be getting back together for one last big adventure, nearly 30 years after their original one. Sure, Sean Astin, Corey Feldman, Josh Brolin et al may not have aged so well, but Martha Plimpton is still pretty kickass, and if we’re honest, we’re totally […]
Nostalgia hit me this week when I stumbled across my old crimpers in my parents house, and I started to have dreamy flash backs on all the crazes (and now cringes) I went through with my beauty ‘regime’ as a kid-turned-angry-teen in the 80s slash 90s. Any of these trends ring any bells? 1. The […]

It was the 1980s and I was the first girl in my class to get Clarks Magic Steps shoes. The ones with the key in the sole. They are perhaps responsible for many things: The start of my shoe obsession. My flexibility. I always had my foot up in the air showing off the soles. […]
Following my post on threesomes – of the all-girl singing variety that is you filthy-minded SWINES – I felt the need to ruminate on terrible (and not so terrible, atch) twosomes from the ’80s and ’90s. Here we go… Shampoo ‘Uh-oh. We’re in trouble. Something’s come along and it’s burst our bubble (yeah yeah).` ‘Twas […]
