Back to the 60s

Every month, my job has a "theme day". Yesterday was "60s Day":



Yours truly won first prize, for my outfit. I'm going to have to print this out and give my mother a shock - these were the clothes that she wouldn't allow me to wear, back then.

OMG You look great!!

You look fantastic, Cindy!

you should listen to your mother
eheh however it does look fun to wear to work

I got one word for that outfit: GROOVY!!!

Great outfit! I wish we'd have theme days.

At our work on Fidays' it's tie-dyed t-shirt day.

That's FABULOUS! Where did you find such groovy threads?

Terrific, Cindy! Fashions were rather strange then, weren't they? When I think back to the stuff I wore in the 60s/70s, I'm shocked that my mom went along with my tastes in fashion.

Do you remember the "sizzlers" from the early 70s, i.e., the ultra-mini dresses with matching panties? I thought I'd shock my parents by wearing them, and my mom's reaction was to sew - I was the envy of my classmates and friends because I had such a "custom-fitted" collection of them!

As opposed to, like, NOW? I swear, you haven't lived until you've seen your 82-year-old mother come out of the dressing room at Kohl's trying to yank a pair of hiphuggers up to her actual waist!
