Oh, if you take time to do the thrift stores you can get some wonderful
things. I got a Channel (?) outfit for 10 bucks that cost 900.00 new. I
thought I was somebody! It may have been worn once, no wrinkles or
anything.

flip flops to a banquet,* they were white but NNOOO*

I still wear the high heels to meeting. Not because I like them but,
because I still can!

LOL, I'm 'height challenged' myself (5'2") and also wore the bee
hives and 3 inch heels. Ahhhhh, the good ol days.
I can wear my hair up like Ma Kettle now
I snipped my bangs the other night and counted 6 colors of gray in
that one tiny 'snip'. I like the colors. I like the hair-dooz of the
1920's and 30's.
Nice hats back in those days too Gotta watch my Ma & Pa Kettle
movies again one of these days.

My favourite 'look' is from the 1940's where it was fashionable to
have
*dark* hair and pale skin (which I have) rather than the ubiquitous
platinum blonde and tan you see these days. Since i also have a small
mouth and 'rosebud' lips, I am far more suited to 1940s glamour than
modern looks. Then again, I also tend to just schelpp around in
shorts
&
tshirt in summer or jeans & tshirt in winter, and I really don't have
the
time or inclination to be fashionable or glamerous of any era :-)
