I have absolutely no idea how old I am in that picture. Maybe 14 or 15. I was not cool in high school. I was the wanna-be. Always just one month behind the trends, one accessory behind the times.
I'm pretty sure the corduroy newsboy cap was at least one season off, though apparently, I was a good 15 years early on the long sleeves under short sleeves trend!
Extra! Extra! Read all about it! I like hat. Did the newspaper gig pay well?

That photo is awash in earth tones, from the walls, to the couch to the clothing. I love it.

I am digging into the recesses of my Montreal memories. Did you pick up the outift at Les Terrasses? Maybe Tristan or Le Chateau? God I loved LC. And some other places whose names now escape memory. I know your shoes were from Aldo.

You looked hip! Anyway, what did those popular girls know about fashion back in the 80's, glued to their strawberry flavored lip gloss as they were. But I do notice a little feathering going on with your hair, or is it a belated Dorothy Hammel hairdo? I sooooooooo wanted the Dorthy Hammel but my hairdresser always ended up giving me a pixie instead.
