      Thank you Kate! Yes the bigger the better was in vogue back then. I designed the dress and my mother made it! ♥ I wish I had one of my coat too. (this was taken in March) Mom made my coat as well from fake fur.

          So many older people would look much much better if they would just fluff their hair up a bit. That straight lanky look is so aging.

            Amen sister! One hair stylist dried my bangs flat against my head. I looked like a 6 year old with wrinkles!

      Thank you Jean. I loved that dress. I designed it and my mother made it. She was a wonderful seamstress. Her work put me through high school back when pennies were scarce.

        You were both very talented! My mom made a lot of our clothes when we were in grade school.

          All my dresses were hand made back then. Thank you! It was nice to be able to have exactly what I pictured in my mind.
