I Have To Have a Short Plaid Skirt

My mother had three magazines coming monthly in the sixties. Women’s Day, Redbook and Ladies Home Journal. American Girl Magazine made its debut, and she bought if for us. My twin and I. I remember thinking “who dresses like this?” With the first edition. By the third month I had to have white go go boots. And a short plaid skirt. But of course, living with my mother, it was never short enough.
