Ashley and I have often spoke of our grandmother, Mildred Dorrell Oliver, who we believe Ashley got her fashion sense from. This is Mildred in the late 50s or early 60s. This is a Christmas photo as you can see from the poinsettia. Grammy (our nickname for her) is wearing a dark colored slimming sheath dress. I believe it was linen. Look at the simple beads on her neck. The perfect touch, even now, 50 years later!
Grammy worked in a pharmacy and always looked very nice. She liked to wear accessories but was also frugal and bought pieces that looked good with many items.
I didn't mention, but next to her is my grandpa, Joseph Issac Edward Oliver.
Some things are just classic and always stay that way!
ReplyDeleteNeat pic, neat dress and pearls!
Happy Weekend to you too!
