It's hard to understand or remember what the fuss was about, but it sounds like we all went through the same dress code struggle.

One of the reasons I left home was to dress as I wished (bell-bottoms, fringe coats, moccasins). I can't wait to spend my time in jeans, t-shirts, and fleece jackets. margenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00203284423648703855noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5141954207305878743.post-85852170145470918032017-06-22T11:52:43.203-04:002017-06-22T11:52:43.203-04:00I LOVE seeing all those wonderful outfits ... and ...I LOVE seeing all those wonderful outfits ... and reading the stories that accompany them.

In my youth, flip flops were my daily wear, I had many colors to switch around. For winter, old LandsEnd sweater in black or gray, plenty of spots and unraveling but then who cared. <br />(All my schools when growing up in rural WI required skirts/dresses, yes even in my senior year.)

I had a white blouse similar to the one in your 3rd picture, I thought those long cuffs and collar were very hip!

I, too, had to fight to be allowed to wear bell bottoms (and never, ever to school -- even under my dresses for recess), and when I finally got a pair (my mom took pity and made me some), I wore them all the time. I love your Southern Belle costume, too, and your cap and gown. But best of all? Glinda!
