Whispering secrets to my sister, Chantele....
(I have no idea where this photo was taken...)
In our 1970's era living room, my mom's frugality shows.
(I'm in the back, sans bangs.)
She added wide yellow ruffles to the bottoms of our dresses to compensate for our rapid growth...and we were able to wear them for one more year. Initially, the dresses had red ties at the back of the waist. She switched them out to yellow to match the ruffles.

These pictures reminded me of my 3 cousins - all girls/sisters. They always wore the same dresses..I never got to as I dont have a sister. My girls used to get dressed like this but as they grow into their teens, they refused to be dressed as such :)
I love the ruffles- did you feel like princesses when you put on these dresses? There's something about a long dress...
