results

a’s - The roaring 20’s. The world of flapper dresses and speakeasies awaits you!

b’s - The 30’s. Radio shows and board games were popular in this era, with both Monopoly and Scrabble being invented in this decade.

c’s - Welcome to the 40’s. While Zoot suits and slinkies may seem an unnatural pair, they occupied this decade.

d’s - The 50’s. Slicked back hair and polka dot dresses were popular during this time period. If you wanted a refreshing drink back in the fifties, a soda fountain was the answer.

e’s - You’ve arrived in the 60’s. Barbie dolls and lava lamps were loved by many. And yes, they still exist today.

f’s - Here come the seventies. The famous Woodstock festival and Hippies became a thing too, loose clothes and messy hair was a look loved by many.

g’s - The eighties. Arcades with games like Tetris, Frogger and Dig Dug were favoured by people all over the world. Slap on bracelets and the Rubix cube became staples of this decade.

h’s -The nineties. Drop crotch pants [ looking at you MC Hammer] were a favourite in this dec ade. Rushing to the nearest Blockbuster on a Friday night was a must, cause you always had to have the latest release to watch at your sleepover.

i’s - Welcome to the 2000s. While low rise jeans might have been a trend during this decade, they’re a not-so-good aspect of the early 2000’s. Y2K was certainly upon us, rhinestones were on almost everything you could ever imagine, Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie provided all the wisdom you could ever want, and everyone wanted to be like either Letty from Fast and Furious or Dylan from Charlie’s Angels.

j’s - The 2010’s. We don’t really know what happened here either; hipsters in the earlier parts of the decade and those really odd moustache prints that seemed to be almost everywhere, the 2010’s was an odd time. Worldwide known bands such as Tame Impala and Arctic Monkeys were born, sending us into a whole new musical world full of Synth and Neo-psychedelia; this is where bedroom pop was born. The debate of the decade was between whether a dress was black and blue or white and gold [it’s totally white and gold btw]. Ah, the app that we know and love as Vine was made, and I’m sure most of you know a couple. After its shutdown in late 2016, the internet mourned the loss of one of the most popular apps ever made. Black Panther made its debut in 2018, breaking the box office with a whopping 1.4 billion dollars, and setting a whole new atmosphere for superhero movies.
