Some do it with a touch of irony; others seem to feel a true affection for that era of feminine style.<br /><br />Of course there's also a article on the first page of the Sunday Review section of today's New York Times, meditating on the 50th anniversary of Betty Friedan's Book. I remember reading that book as part of the required list for freshman orientation week as I headed off to college in 1963.<br /><br />Goodness Vicki, this comment's getting long, so I will stop right here. xoFranceshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08352407314710067616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-764237570467034909.post-20566160189764975842013-02-17T17:39:02.815-05:002013-02-17T17:39:02.815-05:00Certainly times have changed with appropriate wear...Certainly times have changed with appropriate wear.

With our first baby grabbing at my hat, I gave up hats. With the second baby, I gave up gloves; with the third baby I gave up earrings. With the fourth baby, I gave up church until my husband was out of training and could be home more to help me! Now days, the hat boxes are more valuable than the vintage hats. When my father died, I gave all his gentleman's hats and boxes to our local university's drama department.Barbee'https://www.blogger.com/profile/11316077390373348067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-764237570467034909.post-19304038294181162472013-02-17T14:08:12.659-05:002013-02-17T14:08:12.659-05:00I live in jeans these days.... not that I ever had...I live in jeans these days.... not that I ever had that kind of hat & glove elegance, but even I think I've let standards slip a bit!jennyfreckleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12221511824958069710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-764237570467034909.post-45624079910459360332013-02-17T07:34:17.620-05:002013-02-17T07:34:17.620-05:00ha. what a cool memory...made me think too in rela...ha. what a cool memory...made me think too in relation to downton abbey...been watching it with my wife...interesting how formal they are...i am not much for formal...Brian Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00722940075884718007noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-764237570467034909.post-46186068733630242702013-02-17T06:41:04.241-05:002013-02-17T06:41:04.241-05:00I'm left wondering if hats will ever make a co...I'm left wondering if hats will ever make a comeback, Vicki.
