Elephant Bells.

I was somewhere the other day (I can't recall where) when a young woman walked by wearing "elephant bells", i.e., bell bottom jeans with very wide flairs.

They were popular when I was quite young.  By the time I was in high school, elephant bells had largely passed, but a few girls, usually ones who were a little edgy, still wore them.

I was surprised, as I didn't know that you could still get them, but then a few days later I was driving home and saw another young woman wearing a pair of white elephant bells and a multicolored, very 60ish, sweater.  She had long blond curly hair and it really suited her.  She was also walking into a tattoo parlor, so I hope she was careful.

Are they coming back?
