No wonder that some 80 years old stuff still Works, they made some fab stuff then!.<br />You look particularly fab in your shift dress and totally agree that these pockets (and buttons) make the difference. The shape and cut of this dres is amazing!. And love your 80's mood and all these tartan and plaid and fabulously massive bijouterie!, 80's fabulousness!!<br />Love your boots on fire, mwhaha. You totally rock!<br />I need a Roar As a Dinosaur Day (every week or so). ;DD<br />besosSeñora Allnuthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01403540346998939207noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7189165.post-68040495429516640422020-12-03T13:11:10.863-08:002020-12-03T13:11:10.863-08:00@Beth
Carrying your shoes in a bag to the party is...@Beth<br />Carrying your shoes in a bag to the party is all part of the Midwestern winter experience! Spring too-mud, ya know :)<br /><br />@Emily<br />Oz is a great name for the ring! <br /><br />@Beate<br />These trains wouldn't be worth much because my dad and uncle played with them-they're in rough condition. Sometime I see the money people are willing to pay for old toys and just shake my head. <br /><br />@Bibi<br />With Talbots it is hard to know how old it is because everything is so classically styled. Could be 70s or 2000s? They used to have a catalogue return store near me in Illinois, and I'd always find great bargains there. <br /><br />@Vix<br />You're right! After the 80s everything, no matter how expensive seemed to be held together with interlocking stitch that would fall apart after a few washes. <br /><br />@Ann<br />I think you're right about not outgrowing trains. When we used to take Danny to model railroad shows it was all old men selling and buying the trains. <br /><br />Goodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17383404429461423998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7189165.post-89601818983754788882020-12-02T17:23:33.077-08:002020-12-02T17:23:33.077-08:00I see that your train video is working now!

Danny did a great job, something he clearly enjoyed doing. I guess boys are never too old for that kind of thing. I remember my Dad tinkered as much with my brother's train set as my brother did! <br />Your curls are gorgeous, and as always I loved seeing your parade of outfits, including Beth's bunny slippers :-) <br />Well done on starting your Winter switch. I've only just about finished mine, but took my time, as I've had a lot of the latter on my hands. <br />Those tapestry boots are amazing, and yes, bring on the holiday brooches! xxxPolyester Princesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05602613792584925087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7189165.post-71080481225769688312020-12-02T08:25:29.619-08:002020-12-02T08:25:29.619-08:00I loathed 1980s fashion at the time but am learnin...I loathed 1980s fashion at the time but am learning to love it now, it's the last decade when clothes were made properly!<br />Love the lapels on that red suit and the hat your Mum made looks fantastic with your fabulous curls!<br />Well done to Danny for getting that train going, can't wait to see the video! xxxVixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05263970600699632661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7189165.post-11140589792086459962020-12-01T23:54:58.709-08:002020-12-01T23:54:58.709-08:00Your curls are gorgeous!

I had a navy blue double breasted suit & some button down Oxford shirts I was fond of, kept finding Talbot's stuff in thrift shops all the way into the 2010s - due to their great longevity?<br />Fantastic job on the trains Danny!<br />Bibi Maizoonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07383381158640915162noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7189165.post-79806840967412338072020-12-01T22:33:04.529-08:002020-12-01T22:33:04.529-08:00i´m happy to hear that danny enjoys the old model ...i´m happy to hear that danny enjoys the old model trains! and they run!!<br />this things, esp. if 80 years old, sell for a real lot of money here - guess all the computer nerds buy them with the money from their overpayed jobs.......<br /><br />love your 80s mood!<br />the more the todays fashion is going bland, boring and dull - the more i crave 80s style. and you do it very well! but the "burning" boots are the icing on the cake! <br /><br />xxxxbahnwärterinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02032478343344432338noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7189165.post-31441009420237304062020-12-01T16:47:33.593-08:002020-12-01T16:47:33.593-08:00Congratulations to Dan on starting the train! I&#...Congratulations to Dan on starting the train! I'm looking forward to the video.<br /><br />That shift is the most stylish one I've ever seen, and the pockets make it so much nicer. The side view of your hair is beautiful. Might one of the boys help with a picture of the back next time? It is very hard to do oneself. <br /><br />I love the furry-looking boots by the faux fireplace. It looks like an advertisement for Isotoner or Deerfoam, LOL. <br /><br />Your red and white Nebraska State Capitol outfit from 2016 is charming. The headband makes it so special. At a distance, it looks like those glamorous-looking furry hats that women wear in Russia. <br /><br />My husband has a Godzilla figurine with posable arms and legs, and when you push the button his chest, he roars. Believe me, you don't need an excuse to interact with a dinosaur. He does it shamelessly any day of the year. : ) <br /><br />There's that emerald-green ring! Did I ever tell you that I nicknamed it Oz, as in the Emerald City? I am forever giving nicknames to inanimate objects. <br />Emilynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7189165.post-28622919502232062842020-12-01T16:00:37.747-08:002020-12-01T16:00:37.747-08:00I was scrolling down, preparing to gleam green eye...I was scrolling down, preparing to gleam green eyes at anything from Talbot's circa 1980; and I was musing about your good hair dayS, wondering why one's hair always appears its best when one has nowhere to go and no one to admire it (unless you have a blog frequented by females who appreciate such sad facts of life). And then I spotted THE BOOTS! With elegant, dainty bows! They are exactly what one must -- must! I say! -- have to wear under a formal gown to the social event of the winter season.<br /><br />Guess who found a white velvet hooded coat to wear to a special winter gala but was forced to wear it with plain old boots and carry her pumps in a bag. Long, long ago, when the world and I were much younger... Beth Waltzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02720634636307254576noreply@blogger.com
