1960 something

Sometimes I wonder what it would have been like to have lived during the 60s. I wonder if I would have worn pretty dresses and attend proper social functions. Or if I would have worn cigarette pants and rocked out at The Who concerts with my dad. Maybe I would've been a political activist. What would you have been doing in the 60s? Or maybe you were already there. I just think it was such a fascinating time and I wish I could have seen it firsthand. Good thing they took pictures.

  1. Aaw…the 60’s are totally cute! :) I think I’d closely resemble the girl holding the guitar, if I was around back then. Or some equally long-haired artist weilding a paintbrush. I hope, anyway…

    i would’ve loved to hang out with andy warhol. i’m an artistic type that loves anything out of the ordinary. the people he surrounded himself with were broken and fabulous and interesting.

    i heart the 60’s… if only we could have experienced them, for the amazing clothes if nothing else!
    a friend once told me she thought i was born in the wrong era… wonder which era she had in mind?
