Life In 1983, Told In Vintage Photos

Wish we could go back to 1983.

By Sabrina Fernandez

Published 3 months ago in Feels

Life in 1983 was loud, colorful, and unapologetically alive. Big hair ruled, leather vests were all the fashion, and boomboxes turned sidewalks into dance floors. 


Kids tore open Star Wars toys on Christmas morning while teens blasted cassettes, argued over what was better VHS vs. Betamax, and made mixtape tracklists. 


Couples were out and about around town with no worries, while skaters made the city their own. People went to concerts and they experienced music in its rawest form.


From know figures in their beginnings, on the brink of fame to your regular neighborhood kid running around the backyard, 1983 was a snapshot of joy, rebellion, and style.
