...the more they stay the same.
Since Em is getting ready for Band Camp (she leaves tomorrow and comes back on Friday) I bought her some clothes last night. Very reminicent of what I used to wear, inspired by Flashdance! The ripped/cut sweatshirts, the skinny jeans, tops hanging off one shoulder.
I have to bite my tongue to keep from saying "I used to wear this stuff..." every time. I remember rolling my eyes at my mother and I won't have her doing that to me.
At least to my face, lol.
Our shops are full of 70's style tie dyes and hippy skirts. Heavens shades of when I was 17. 16 year old asked me why I didn't keep all of mine AND the cork platforms for her. LOL I suggested she ask Grandma.
ReplyDeleteSo very cool. I loved the cut sweatshirts that hang off the shoulder.
ReplyDeleteHere in Germany the fashions are also 70's, even some 60's. I still have my old sewing patterns and have been thinking of sewing some of my own stuff (if I only had the TIME!).
ReplyDeleteI laughed at my daughter when she wore bell bottoms. We have pictures of her in them and NOW she gets it.
ReplyDeleteStyle is cyclical.
Love,
Bobby
