Would love that. I'm really liking the knee socks too. Theyre really pulling the outfit together on some of these girls. Thanks for sharing, Karen. This post really did capture some of the excitement that comes with the new school year!Annahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02092039366456384679noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4220537091716156980.post-79327769761716962872012-08-22T08:44:26.642-04:002012-08-22T08:44:26.642-04:00I was always most excited about the school supplie...I was always most excited about the school supplies, too. I had a uniform in elementary school, so going clothes-shopping didn't really have anything to do with school. By the time I got into high school, I was going to estate sales and pulling things from my grandmother's closets. She'd saved practically everything she, my grandfather, my dad and my uncles had worn in the 70s. There were some good pickings. <br /><br />I love the Sears ad. The September 2012 issue of Marie Claire (the French edition) says that "L'ambre" is back.

Especially love those plaid dresses!<br /><br />I have to admit I was never enthusiastic about shopping for clothes for schoole either. I was more intent on finding the best pencil case, coloured pencils and pens. :DAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4220537091716156980.post-41639577144819019342012-08-21T17:52:56.955-04:002012-08-21T17:52:56.955-04:00Love these.

Well, maybe at some all girl colleges, but that would be about it. We couldn't even wear pants to my high school until 1972!Lizziehttp://thevintagetraveler.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4220537091716156980.post-75967734157719241682012-08-21T13:08:45.266-04:002012-08-21T13:08:45.266-04:00Those are some beautiful ads.
