She's a couple of years older than me, and between us we got every single number - it was like 'Name That Tune' with bonus tapas!Black Tuliphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00399472362773743743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4102653746369917661.post-82233279679392613312021-10-27T19:05:23.062+01:002021-10-27T19:05:23.062+01:00Thanks Juliana.

The dress looked a bit 'meh' when I first made it, but the pop of black from the obi belt was just what it needed.Black Tuliphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00399472362773743743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4102653746369917661.post-47775491737484478612021-10-27T13:24:31.398+01:002021-10-27T13:24:31.398+01:00P.S.

I remember most of our phone numbers from when I was growing up (we moved a lot, so there are several), plus a whole slew of useless information that only comes in handy on trivia nights. :) My dad always says that the Rolodex is full. (Or hard drive, if you prefer).

It looks so nice on you, not tight at all. The belt is a nice touch. I think the only make I still have from 2014 is a feedsack blouse that is really showing its age since I've worn it so much. My style has changed a lot since then, plus my skill set has improved, and my shape is radically different since I'm not a year post-partum and nursing--ha! But it is fun to look back at the old makes--I wish I had the room to store some of them, but alas, I do not. Thank goodness for blog archives. :) Julianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09134771358325901297noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4102653746369917661.post-32057791436640347782021-10-25T18:52:05.242+01:002021-10-25T18:52:05.242+01:00Thank you!
