This morning I tweeted, "Managed to dress like an older, seedier version of the Morton Salt Girl today." Response was immediate and positive. I laughed it off but was flattered enough to promise I'd take a photo tonight when I got home. Before I wrangled the self timer into submission I did a little research on the internet. Turns out I didn't look like the Morton Salt Girl at all.
I really thought she had boots. That was the only important part to me, the boots. No surprise, really, I do love the shoes most of all, even now that I live in a place and time where comfort has to beat all. You never know when you're going to find yourself walking the 6 miles home. So I don't know who I really wound up dressing like but I took a picture all the same.
Could have been worse. It was raining and hot today. I could have gone to work recreating this vintage advertisement instead.

Aw, geez. Now you HAVE to do the Coppertone ad.
ReplyDeleteOh. Now. I really do not think so.
ReplyDeleteKind of you to say I should, though.
I think.
Ha! You even have the facial expression.
ReplyDeleteWhat kind of boots are they? I almost splurged on a pair yesterday but they lacked the comfort level necessary for their price.
ReplyDeleteI don't know what brand but they were from the store were are not supposed to shop at anymore (Tarjay). A kindly blogger from a place where the wind comes sweeping down the plains sent them to me. I think I need to get some insoles to keep them on properly but I love them. That's my new Ebay'd skirt, too.
