    The turtleneck things are called Dickies, they were also made and sold that way for layering without bulk.

      My mom was the queen of rocking dickies in the 90's, I think she had double the amount of these lol.

      Yes! Apparently she actually cut all of them herself instead of just buying them like that 😹

      I feel the same way! ☺️ There were definitely multiple items that was put away, that I would have loved to see! In example the coral colored dress, the ivory colored one, as well as some blazers and even some shirts in the beginning. 🙏💕

      In particular, I wanted to see the white poke-a-dotted set and long fancy black dress.
      Also I think the coral dress had a collar so the buttons would in the front not the back.
      But ya there were so many cool pieces, I would of loved to see them shown on.

    OMG that blue jumpsuit! I wore a dress made exactly like that, shoulder pads, V-neck, pockets, only in dress form. I loved it. I wore it to death in the late 1980s-early 90s. What a great style and so flattering! Your mom is probably super cool.

    @sarahb.6475 3 года назад +1

    I just love the blue & black jumpsuits! And the V part of the belt definitely goes in the back. And my, I was really laughing at your reaction at finding all of those cut up turtlenecks! So hilarious!! 😂 And it also reminded me of the crazy things my grandmother would save and we found after she passed away. Like sweater sleeves...just the sleeve...cut off and very carefully saved. No idea why! We were just as confused! I suppose she wanted to do something with it but never got around to it. Found lots of remains of cut up clothing. But it gets COLD here. I mean -20 F windchills so you learn to dress in layers with warm fabrics. And cotton can be deadly in winter! ❄
