A whistle-stop tour of 1982 fashions and cosmetics... beginning with three ads from Cosmopolitan, May 1982...
Boots No 7 - May, 1982 - "Announcing the arrival of the hottest Spring we've ever seen".
Trendy specs from Silhouette - they look lovely with shoulder pads.
Here's Jane Fonda, flashing her leg warmers about on her famous Workout video, which began the home video fitness trend. Aerobics Rules?
Little underwear - from the Daily Mirror, March 1982. Even today, I wouldn't be seen dead in a pair of boxers - although they are supposed to be much healthier for we members of the ... er... unfairer sex. 
From The Sun, 4/5/1982:It's no sweat to keep in trim these days.
Especially with the sort of exercise clothes that reveal loads of style.
Girls are taking to the tennis courts, running tracks and dance classes to keep their curves in shape.
There's no need to sweat it out in sticky vests, baggy shorts and nylon sox. There's enough fashionable gear around for sporting action to turn any girl into a surefire winner.
Zippy shorts and matching tops will give you a good run for your money.
And the latest mini ra-ra skirts will put your legs ahead of other girls.
If you want to take to the tracks in a serious way, choose a body-revealing leotard and fashionable tracksuit bottoms.
You don't have to be a record breaker to look like a champ, but you'll gladden the heart of every fella who likes to play the game.
Remember zippy shorts? Remember those horrible black lycra leggings, ending around the knee, under your ra-ra skirt? And what about these?
The Sun, 23 July, 1982 - the "Bonce Bouncers" are here! We've had head-hunters and head-bangers. Now it's the turn of the bonce boppers.
In fact, it's the latest craze to bounce into Britain from America. And it's going to everyone's head.
So, hang up your hoola-hoop, scrap your skateboard and get a head start by wearing a bopper on your bonce.
It's a headband supporting two spiral wire antenna topped with hearts, bobbing balls or windmills.
When we took to the streets with luscious Linda Lusardi wearing a pair of boppers, headstrong young men came rushing up to look at her...
