At least I don't disappear in a crowd.
No, the outfit didn't need the brocade jacket, but since when has that stopped me?
This handbag has seen better days. It is held together with gold duct tape, but it was my mother's, and I'll keep it after it is no longer useful. My dad bought it for her on a trip to Miami in the 50's (He was settling up the estate of an elderly relative). She refused to use it, calling it an "old lady purse." She handed it off to me when I was in high school. That happened with a good number of things (ski sweaters, shoes, gloves). Someday I should look into proper restoration-not just gold duct tape.
I didn't buy the hair dryer (but I wanted to)
