Memories

I can remember my shoes, my gown was deep cream and shoe shops only had white so I had a pair of shoes dyed to match the gown

No, auntieflo. I haven’t a clue. Can’t see my feet on the photos. As it snowed on our wedding day I may well have had wellies under there .

I’ve still got the home made cotton mini- dress I got married in. As we went on the tube to the registry office I must have worn shoes but I have no idea what they were. I do remember, however, that my tights were falling down. No need for a going away outfit as we were back at work on the Monday. Some of my colleagues didn’t believe I had got married and others assumed I was pregnant. They were all wrong.

I remember everything I wore when I got married and my going away outfit (navy and cream fitted dress and matching coat) except the shoes but I guess they were navy with a low heel??
I certainly remember going to Majorca for my honeymoon as it was the first time I had been abroad apart from a day trip to France when I was at school.

That has made me smile Auntieflo and made me think. No I can't remember my shoes either, I must look out photographs later and see if they are visible under my long dress.
The thing that made me smile was the " going away outfit" do people have them these days?
I had a really lovely fitted dress in oyster grey with a matching jacket, long black suede gloves and matching handbag, I thought I looked the bee's knees, I was just 21 and very slim. That was 59 years ago, would I go back? Never.
