Farewell to the inventor of the Mini Skirt.. Mary Quant R.I.P

That's so true... today Twiggy says she couldn't possibly become that size again... she said it was her natural size , she didn't diet....

This is Twiggy and her hubby today... , she's 73 now

This was a shocker. When I see photos like this it reminds me just how old I am.

We shopped at Biba's , wore panstick, no white lipstick and mini skirts. Those were the days. Today I saw a young man, very elegant, wearing very fashionable clothing and I thought to myself, I wonder what you will be wearing when you are my age. We all get old, there is no turning back.

I can't believe it! I think I am currently skinnier than Twiggy! Big Deal, 50 years too late. Loved Mary Quant, brought such fun & excitement to my life. R.I.P. great lady.

Can we trade? I'll have some of your "skinny" and you can have some of my "plump!"

This brought back memories to me of my school days. I went to a Catholic school and was taught by Nuns. Every week the nun would make us kneel on the floor to make sure our uniform was long enough and not too short. What the nuns didn't know was when we left school we would pull up our uniforms and make them stay that way by using our waistbands to tuck them up.
