Old Fashion Or No Fashion?

I remember the good old days when you could be embarrassed because the guy you were walking with had on corduroy pants.  Everyone stared as you walked by because of the sound they made.

Today SEB and family came to visit for a bit and this is what granddaughter Courtney was wearing.

She pointed out the shiny chains, the glow in the dark thread and announced that her Grandma help her pick them out.  A thought flashed through my feeble mind—Not This Grandma!

Yet the more I looked at them the more I thought ‘how cool’!  The fact that it was a cross between Motorcycle Momma and Cowboy Spurs seemed to fade into the background and all I could think of was that Grandma sure has great taste! 

Even from the back these jeans were an item!  The more I looked the more I loved them.  Yes ‘other Grandma’ you sure know what teens like and I must admit I’m jealous of your fashion savvy!  All in all a great job Grandma!

I work at crocheting, knitting, making ornaments, and other projects. With my husband I can 300 or 400 half pints of jam, chutney, plus cabbage relish, pickled beets and cinnamon fruit every summer to give away.

  1. At first glance, I thought it was Anne in the picture!  same expression on her face, and the hair color, I guess.

    The pants are really cute.  The glow thread will be nice for walking.  Pedestrians should be seen and not hit.
    At least they cover all the basic body parts, which is much better than I’ve been looking at on the university campus the last couple weeks.
    “other Grandma” has great fashion sense!

  2. They are really cool!  I’d wear them, but I’d get the chains caught on everything!
