Do you remember Aqua Manda bubble bath?
Aqua Manda - not not the latest mermaid cartoon, but a fragrance by Goya popular in the 70s. I certainly remember the packaging - it was so trendy ... at the time.
What about Maxi perfume from Max Factor - very popular back in the day!
I found these adverts in a retro Company magazine from October1979 - the very first issue! I had kept it all this time.
Fashions were amazing - I really liked these almost tomboyish styles although I drew the line at braces! Cords and checked blouses - loved them!
Beautiful photograph of Jenny Agutter.
The one thing that struck me about this magazine was the number of advertisements for cigarettes and alcohol. So many! Not to mention home catalogues - remember them. Just about everyone's Aunty had one - I got a lot of clothes from catalogues when I was a teenager because you could pay them up weekly. Outdoor Girl mascara - a classic!
This magazine certainly brought back a few memories. Hope these photos have for you too.
Love, Liz

Can't remember the Maxi perfume but I always used Gingham or Charlie....or if I could get hold of it White Fire which was my favourite.
Loved the check blouses but not the cords so much. I did have some but they used to make me itch.
