To have great style takes strength, confidence, and independence. My Mom has always encompassed all of these qualities. She is the most beautiful woman I have ever known and she continues to still amaze me every day. Not only is she gorgeous to look at (did I mention that she was an actual beauty queen?) But my Mom has always had the kindest and most positive upbeat spirit of anyone I have ever known. Always laughing and smiling, I am so proud to have her as my mom.
The other day my Mom told me she wished she still had all of her dresses from the 60s and 70s, and, I wish she did too! I would wear them all the time! A little look at my Mom’s style back in her heyday – an evolution from the 60s to the 70s:
hair in curlers while camping!! diva!
the cutest peter pan collar dress ever! I want it!
first bridesmaid dress
My mom’s face in that photo is the typical face she would make when opening a present from my Dad, even years later. A look of excitement/fear/shock at what weird present it was this time!
My absolute favorite style photo of my Mom. I want her shoes and her glasses in this photo. She looks so chill.
I love you Mom!
