Hello!
I am thrilled that we are no longer doing themes for Flashback Friday... it was all getting way too difficult to find photos to fit the theme!
This is a photo of me with my brother, all dressed up for my uncle's wedding. I reckon this was early-mid 1980s.
Check out the hair! I remember the day before, mum tied so many rags into my hair, I felt so special, and how exciting it felt to then go to bed with them still in!!! I felt quite different though when she had taken them all out the next morning, and stood me in front of a glass door so I could just see my reflection... I cried! But I am sure I got over it, and I remember how my hair felt, it was lovely and soft. I am not sure if it looks cute or if it is appropriate to laugh at this photo!

In this photo I am wearing my favourite blue dress with my favourite pale blue socks and gorgeous metallic blue Mary Janes.... my mum shopped incredibly well for this outfit! I wore it at every opportuninty, and remember wearing it in summer (without the shirt underneath) and in the winter... how sad when I grew out of it!
Now, looking at my brother, how cool was he in the brown and the cardi...? too funny!!!
Have a great weekend, xx

I do the rag thing with my oldest daughter's hair, which is VERY long (although I use long satin ribbons). It curls up into insane ringlets and she absolutely loves it. I haven't done it for a while though...and when I do, it usually takes about an hour to tie all the ribbon in.
You both look so sweet.
I had my Mum put my hair in rags too! It was always so special. You look too cute!
