I can't hate...in the early 90s, I was rockin' ugly vests as well.

OMG I did own a vest like that once in the mid 1990's.

I loved her work in "Just one of the Guys" in 1985.

Intro sax music.....cigarette smoke swirls upward into the shot...cue voiceover...

She was an plain dame in an ugly vest, but she knew how to make a man forget what he'd had for dinner.

Sheree was a hardboiled gumshoe without any prospects when he met her, late one night over a scotch. She took it straight up, no chaser.

He knew she'd be hot for the case. Hell, she'd been collecting motel pix for angry wives for months. He leaned in and laid the details on her.

Sheree sighed, stubbed out her cigarette, and looked at the clock over the bar.

"I'll do it, see, but not for you and your fat cat friends. No, I'll do it just to spite you, and I'll make you regret you ever asked."

That was Sheree, all the way. And damned if he didn't wind up regretting after all....

That vest came free with Mom Jeans.

There's a whole weird faux Sam Spade thing going on here with the hat and blinds. Sam Spade meets Madonna. Yeah this is another opportunity to blame Madonna for bad fashion.

Yup, that was pretty much the "uniform" for females in 1990.

Am I the only one who's noticed how oddly disproportionate her face is to her hair and body?

She looks like Weird Al Yankovic's sister.

Is it so wrong that I extremely dig that vest? Oh man.

When I was in HS in the late 80s, only "certain kinds" of girls wore those hats on top of their luxurious perms.... those and bolero hats. We called 'em "slut helmets" but they usually went with LOTS of eyeliner and maybe a bandana tied around the acid-washed leg.

How did we get jeans that tight in the days before 5% Lycra??

Hat is no friend to Sheree.
