I had brown on brown and black on white both. I didn't get to wear penny loafers until high school.:P

Yeah, and you needed those to walk to school 5 miles uphill each way. :P

No doubt. My dad had to walk 5 miles up hill both ways in the snow carrying 3 of his younger siblings piggy back.:lol:

My dad was still walking home when he was walking to school. He never had time to finish the trip until the weekend. :giggle:
 
My father always had to take the cow back home. For some reason "patches" would follow him to school. For a while he would just tie her out to the post, but then he had to start taking her home before he could go to class.

Why do I have Mary had a little lamb....running through my head? Only the lyrics have changed to Daddy had a little cow.....:lol:

I am getting downright goofy this afternoon!:P
 
For the past few weeks, I've been seeing teenage girls wearing those very high heels with shorts and tops....(6-inch heels?)....Also, those very big hoop ear rings....little girls are growing up too fast!....Skimpy bathing suits at the pools also....

Definately growing up to fast. And they don't have the emotional maturity to handle it. That is what is scary about it all.

This isn't a new phenomenon...kids have been "growing up too fast" probably forever.

That may be true, but you have to admit that you didn't see 8 year olds in stillettos 20 years ago.:lol:
 
I think they're known for their racy ads, right?

Anyway...I could be an old fogie here, but I oppose two piece swimsuits for young girls. :o

Only the difference is, a lot of parents are actually letting their children dress like that these days.

Some are beyond letting, and are actually encouraging them. :eek3:

I don't like two-piece swimsuits for girls that show a bare midriff. Two-piece suits where the top piece overlaps the bottom piece is OK to me. (Easier for restroom use.) I prefer the ones with boy-cut bottom leg openings instead of high-rise side openings.

I guess that makes me even older fogier. :giggle:

Hey, I used to wear bathing caps with chin straps at the beach and pool when I was young! (Heaven forbid a girl or woman get her hair wet!) Ugh! I used to get headaches and weird tan lines from those things.

But I digress....

Did yours have the flowers on it? I had a blue bathing cap for swimming with white daisies all over. Had 3 of them, 1 for the ocean, 1 for the lakes and 1 for the pool when we visited my grandmother. At those times, my hair was pulled into a ponytail using the rubber band around the newspaper and we had those plastic/vinyl square bottom bags that were see through that held our towels and such. And only Coppertone was available, but my grandmother used to put baby oil on me not being aware that I was allergic to it.
 
I will not be happy if my niece (age 4) starts dressing like a tramp. I believe my sister is not happy with some of the clothing for my niece's age group.
