I hope we start seeing them in the second-hand shops, as some of them were awesome. I suspect a lot of people are still hanging onto those old pieces - after all, 2000 wasn't that long ago (when you're in your 50s!). And they are much in demand now, so likely snapped up if they make Sheilahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07735339885677950350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4115841618725638085.post-15532929930062061372022-02-11T14:17:36.094-08:002022-02-11T14:17:36.094-08:00Thanks, Ivana - the quality of it is superb.Thanks, Ivana - the quality of it is superb.Sheilahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07735339885677950350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4115841618725638085.post-53625130510635539162022-02-11T14:17:15.608-08:002022-02-11T14:17:15.608-08:00It felt like a "Greetje" outfit at the t...It felt like a "Greetje" outfit at the time!
