Oh WOW Pegged Pants. I remember "pegging" my dungarees by hand because I was not allowed to use the sewing machine.
Nobody was as fine as me walking down the Avenue in my pegged pants and keds. LOL
We need to thank Jimmy for these memories.
And you just had to have a "Poodle" skirt. Because I just happened to have an Aunt who was a dressmaker, mine was a little different. At the time that didn't make me too happy. Silly me.

:)Wheezie...................guess we all wore the same thing. However, I never had a poodle skirt. Did wear the sweaters back wards - buttons in the back with a neckerchief. Thought I looked cool.............................!

I NEVER HAD PEGGED PANTS, THE GUYS DID. WE USED TO ROLL OUR DUNGAREES UP AND I HAD A POODLE SKIRT. WISH I STILL HAD IT! THERE WAS A PLACE ON TREMONT (MAYBE FRANKS ARMY/NAVY STORE??) WHO WOULD EMBROIDER YOU NAME ON YOU DUNGAREES.

Never wore the PODDLE skirts. I used to wear the backward sweathers and scarfs and POMPOMS, and straight skirts, with nylons. Never did like the black and white shoes or socks. And wore bobby pins in my hair with the scarf half way around my head.   |

Isalbelle, I remember them and remember how uncomforable they were, but loves them. Used to wear two of them to make them stand out more. And when I sat down, up in the air they would go, had to hold them down while sitting down when taking the train in the mornings to work. LOL |

Bandstand skirts (with the 4 large buttons in the front), Dr. Kildare and Ben Casey blouses, and soft leather flats that curled up when you took them off. That was the early '60's, before bell bottoms, fringes, mini skirts and go-go boots hit the scene.

I was really a girlie girl and loved wearing full skirts and crinolins that swished as I walked!!! I remember wearing pure white sneakers with hose and skirts because it was THE thing to do. Also the wide cinch belts. Ah yes, those were the days....when I still had a waistline!!!!! LOL!!!!!
