LOL - I was so skinny that those hose wrinkled at my ankles so I much preferred bobby socks and penny loafers.
I also remember "teas"... Those parties adults gave, honoring graduates of 9th grade - when we wore our very first heels and staggered our way through the parties. We also wore gloves and hats when we went to church (Episcopalian).

Ah yes, the formal affairs. And I had to wear those awful clip on ear bobs for jewelry. LOL
The teas were not much of a problem for me because in the deep south in those days, much ceremony was made of the coffee drinking anyway. A cup was never offered without a proper saucer and the cream pitcher and sugar bowl.
I even remember over night company got a soft knock on their door the next morning by a family member with the coffee on a tray. That way, they knew breakfast was almost ready and to get up and get dressed.
