Me: "Hun, do I look okay?"
Mark: "Ask me later," with a silly smirk on his face. I know something is up.
Me: "What is it? My shirt, my shoes?" His face is still scrunched. I know if I hit the right thing, he'll give in. "My hair," getting warmer. "MY BANGS?!?!?"
Mark: "You're in 1994. What are your other options?"
Me: "Are you kidding me?" I've got my hair in a cute ponytail, bangs laid out natural & a little chunky, but I swear they're in style. Just look at this picture of Reese Witherspoon.
OKAY, I admit, I'm not Reese! But, her bangs look good & I was merely attempting to copy them in some form (see anniversary photo in prevoius 10 years post).
Still don't believe me? Check this link. http://www.stylelist.com/trends/hair-style-bangs He's lucky I'm not doing the blue eyeliner or watercolor dresses!!!!
So, I go into the bathroom. I wisp them to the side, make a little part & flatten them down some more.
Me: "There! That better?"
Mark: "You've hit 1998. It's better."
Whatever! If I like it, what do I care what he thinks? He still has to sleep with me every night, eat the meals I cook & say Yes Dear to stay out of trouble. I love that he tries to be honest. In 1998, I was 21 & feeling smokin' hot & on top of the world & totally in love. I may not be 21. I may not be smokin' hot & I'm not really on top of the world anymore, but I am still totally in love. I'll take 1998. Thanks babe.

John will give me his honest opinion about the fashion styles I choose sometimes. Although I like him to like how I look sometimes I wish I wouldn't have asked him because I like what I'm wearing. On the other hand, sometimes he dresses me better than I dress myself.
Wayne never says anything. I don't know if he's timid... polite... or just doesn't notice.
I love bangs. Worn them almost my entire life. Gonna have em laying in my casket. And I think you look great in them!!
They are totally in and they look good on you! I didn't get a chance to tell you- your solo on sunday was AWESOME!!! I think it's one of the best I've heard, you have a beautiful voice and I love that song. Wish I could sing!
They are totally in! I wish that I could pull them off. All three of my little sisters have them. I've seen a lot of their friends with them too. Maybe you are just a trend setter for Kentucky! Everyone else just needs to catch up :)
