Never considered the ugly shoes we had to wear, it was what had to be done, double up for school and church when young. Always got blisters when new, had to be polished and shone up everyday too!
Oh I feel you pain thinking back, once home running around barefoot never actually gave thought to those "ugly" shoes @harlowjourney.
Lovely to meet you, welcome to Hive and the Ladies of Hive family!

Thank you for your kind words! I appreciate it so much. Those shoes were really the worst. I miss them not at all.
Look like international standard shoes, all ugly, long lasting. Selection of clothing only allowed after 13th birthday, just had to live with them!
That was exactly my experience. I never really thought about it, but it really was when I was 13 that I started being allowed to dress in a way that was not mortifying.
Your comments are just as funny as the post...lolololol
Older generation appear to have been given same blueprint to follow in bringing up children.
Although I must say once faced with this new daunting task, paying your own way, one quickly realized the expense attached.
Working career took off, my Mom sewed most amazing suits for work, saving me a ton of money, always completely in style after "window shopping" for ideas!
