You’re right. And even those of us who bear no resemblance to her might adopt some of her characteristics. I suspect that bangs will come back in style. For myself, I used to conceal my use of reading glasses, but even though I bear absolutely no resemblance to Sarah Palin, now I wear them around without embarrassment.
It just so happens I’ve worn bangs with my long hair pulled back in a barrette for many, many years. Of course, it doesn’t look the same on me. ;-) LOL. The woman in the photo is trying to copy Palin, obviously. But, I wonder if people think all of us who wear our hair that way are trying to copy her.
In reality, Palin’s hairstyle was in fashion years ago for those of us the same age as Palin. Some of us kept a version of it through the years. ;-) It’s very easy and inexpensive to maintain. It’s probably a more typical hairstyle in small town America. I was happy when she first was picked because here’s a woman my age in power wearing her hair long - imagine that! But, it got me to thinking about cutting my own hair - it’s like two women wearing the same dress. Time for me to pick a new style. ;-)
