Isn't it nice to remember them.
Peace and Blessings,
'73 here - Yep, had the granny glasses, hair parted in the middle, platform shoes and boyfriends with plaid pants! How about madras plaids, paisley prints, and hip huggers/bell bottoms. My DH and I just saw a video with a young Nancy Sinatra singing and although she wasn't singing "These boots were made for Walkin'" she was wearing them along with a mini mini skirt. I remember wanting a pair of white go-go boots soooo bad, but mommy said I was too young! Waaaa! :cry: A favorite aunt finallly bought me a pair of white boot type bedroom slippers. OH... and how about hot pants and clogs? Whew....I am old! An 11 year old was present at one of my client visits and asked how old I was...I said, "Older than dirt." She glanced at her mom (whom I guess she had previously considered the oldest person she knew) and motioning from me to her mom said in an introduction sort of way, "Oh well then, meet dirt..." I thought she was being disrespectful until she said, "Well you said you were older than "dirt"...." Kids! :roll:
