12th & 13th March 1979

Monday 12
Uncle Jim's funeral
Wrote to Sam

Phone
d him he was very cheerful
Fi asked Chris round to Helen's house and he said yes to a new romance
Watched 'Dracula AD 1972' = good


Tuesday 13
Letter off Sam = ok
Fi is not back with Chris yet
He thinks it is too soon
Home at 3.30
Fi rang
I rang her back
Sam phoned = alright not grumpy
I feel very, very tired


In the 70s we couldn't quite decide what length our skirts should be.... from mini to maxi. This article is about Midis. I found that length such a horrid one to wear so didn't follow that trend.

Show A Leg!
'Midis are difficult to wear - if you are not careful, your legs can look really awful. But never fear, its not what you wear but what you wear with it.....'

Quite frankly their choice of shoes is shocking so I have included what 70s would advise.... you know how much 70s loves her shoes .... as do the other 'shoe junkies' Fracas, Sylvie, B4by and Nurse Myra
70s does agree to the ankle straps but to give a clear line from leg to shoe these are great

We all know that if your legs are a bit on the chunky side, boots are not a thing you can get on/zip up easily. So try these they lace up the front... fab!


If I had solid heavy legs the last thing I would wear is clumpy sensible shoes ...
Angel shoes appeal to me a lot more


This one I fully agree with


And finally if your legs are perfect

Why would you truss them up like this or wear a longer skirt?
Lets face it if you had legs like this who would be looking at your footwear!

tNb said...

I came as quickly as I could ... did I hear something about shoes?? I need some serious 70s advice for beachy footwear ...

Anonymous said...

wow a fashion segment gets a lot of attention doesn't it? we gals are so shallow :-)

Boots are my thing, I have 12 pair including a pair like the shiny black dominatrix boots you've shown. but now that I've seen their mates with the coloured insets I'm salivating for more.

thanks for the link love sweetie x

70steen said...

tNb ~ WB. Now beach footwear front if it is somewhere like Blackpool you need wellies, the Costas maybe light footwear but if it is somewhere like say... Sri Lanka? then little or non are required ;-)

70steen said...

NM~ isn't it just so great to be shallow every now and again!!! :-)

I love boots too. Don't have 12 pairs but I am not far off. I have a great pair of DM's that are similar to the photo but not with the platforms & inserts (how great are they?) and as for my thigh length boots .. I love them.

You are welcome hun xx

Anonymous said...

tNb said...

Is it possible to be footloose and fancy free in a kick-ass pair of boots? ;-)

70steen said...

Olga~ Your bog mistress is a very brave lady indeed.....'hot pants' lets hope DP or JC don't get wind of that!! lol ;-)

70steen said...
