Way Back Wednesday - Sweater Hell and Way Late
The Kept Woman is celebrating the end of winter, although we never really got one down here in Texas. Well, unless you could the Fluke of a Winter Storm we just happen to have the weekend she came down from the Land of Cheese for BlogBlowout. This week our assignment is:
Calling all ugly sweaters, I repeat calling all ugly sweaters of the past: As an "adios" of sorts to winter let's have an UGLIEST SWEATER OF THE PAST Contest! There may even be a prize involved (assuming I get to the store, buy it, get it packaged and sent to the post office... don't laugh, it COULD happen)!
Ok, yeah, I'm late. All I can say is this past weekend wore me out and I want my damn hour back.
This was January 1994. God, I don't believe I was ever that skinny. That was a 3piece stir-up-jogging suit and that yellow sweater just about swallowed me whole. I look like a banana with a nose.
Ick. What does it say when the first two pictures were not that long ago? I think this picture was in Spring 1993. Ok, college sweatshirt, la-di-da... but matching leggings? Oy Vey!
March 1986. I was 11 1/2 and that cute redhead is my cousin Jace. That white sweater with the black stars isn't that bad, but MAMA! Why did you let me have a mullet?
Ah, the Pink Satin Ice Cream Outfit. January 1979. Nuff Said.
November 1988. That sweater went nearly down to my knees and, if I remember correctly, had matching black stir-ups.
I totally should have posted this picture a few weeks ago during our 70s week. I think this was either 1978 or 1979. Sweaterdress? I believe that is a NO.
This is my great grandmother, my great aunt, my grandfather and me. We are in the front room of the house that my great aunt and grandfather grew up in. I think this was sometime in 1979. That sweater I have on is AWFUL! Blue front and back, hot pink sleeves and orange trim around the waist, collar, and wrists. GAG.
Did ya play? Let us know!

Ahhhhh, the jewel-colored sweatshirts and the gold chains.
The memories of university come flooding back...love that navy blue sweatshirt and the flat gold chain...
