White tie

in the early 60s. The mid 1960s Sears catalog is advertising a mink stole (Shih, 1997, p.104). The model advertising the stole is shown wearing white gloves with it, which means that it is more of a formal accessory during this time. The stoles presence in the Sears catalog expresses that these were popular amongst the middle class during the early 1960s.

The photo quality is not great so it was hard to distinguish what exact style suit my grandpa is wearing. From what can be recognized, it looks like an evening wear style that John Peacock showed for the 1960’s. Peacock’s illustration was described as, “single breasted jacket with single button fastening, long roll collar faced with silk, matching covered buttons, hip-level piped pockets; straight cut trousers.

A common referral during the presentation was to the evolution of female dress through the years. Female dress within a business used to be a long skirt and top which has since evolved to stages where a suit and tie has become more acceptable which is also considered the social norm within a business context. The use of this referral enticed a thought in which I thought of how well…

jangled obstreperously an hour later. It 's the right of the auditorium and to the left corner of the gym. 2 girls were waiting in the corner for me. “Hey Pearl and Macy.” I call to them. “Hey, how you 're doing replied?” Replied Pearl and Macy at the same time. Macy and Pearl are identical twin sisters. They both have turquoise eyes, blond hair, and around 5.8ft.

She spent all day in her beloved garden, which took up the entire front and back yard. A garden of the heart; she plants all the good things. I was young, she would include me in her gardening chores by handing me her blue bucket of tools or red watering can. She’d hand me a scissor and ask me to go outside to pick a bouquet of flowers for her. Any flowers I wanted. That was such an exciting feeling for me, to choose which flowers I wanted with no rules, no ‘Oh Sweetie – not those’. No matter…
