"Reminds me of a nun's habit,..."

Great minds surely do think alike! I mentioned that very thing to my husband tonight. We are both products of Catholic school and so are familiar with various habits that the sisters wear/wore. You know depending on the style, those habits could be rather flattering to even those who might, in the lay world, be considered homely. Since you mention head coverings, I bet that you remember the lace chapel caps that were rather common before the covering of the head rule was done away with. I think that they were most popular in the 60s. Ah, memories. :)

When I was a Catholic, I never went into a church without a head covering, but the tackiest one I ever saw was the kleenex held on with a bobby pin...seems silly now a days to do something like that........

some of those nun habits were also quite strange...:O)
