LOL! You must be a little bit older than I, they were starting to MAKE it when I came along, but it was all so new we called it "Current Events".

Seriously, I nearly died when my daughter came home and informed me that her history class was doing a "unit" on the Sixties. I never throw anything away, so for the day they did their presentations I got out my old hand-embroidered bell-bottom jeans (they fit her perfectly!), my dashiki, my Indian beaded headband, my coffee saucer sized peace medal, my cheap silver bangle bracelets, my fringed leather shoulder bag, and my Birkenstocks. We parted her long hair down the middle and braided it. Then we took her picture.

She was voted "most authentic" in her class. She was a SIGHT! (I can't believe I ever really wore that stuff. . . )
