There's a beautiful photo of her at about 16 or 17, posing in a similar hat and gloves.Tammyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13932066100979969014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6274802199669148664.post-40211636510374666412007-08-03T15:55:00.000-05:002007-08-03T15:55:00.000-05:00I just love that arrangement of the hat, gloves, a...I just love that arrangement of the hat, gloves, and bag -- so pretty.

I loved it when we used to wear gloves. It makes you feel so special, I thought. I loved the Post and I have most certainly been praying for those who were involved in any way with the bridge incident. I have always hated briges for that very reason. Some of the ones we have traveled over, I remember from my childhood. That can't be good even I am wearing out. connie from TexasTO BECOMEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01358989235076877037noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6274802199669148664.post-51916382206152686232007-08-03T12:48:00.000-05:002007-08-03T12:48:00.000-05:00These peices are so genteel!
