When I was on my mission, my first landlady in New Jersey insisted that we only buy pink toilet paper to match the decor of the bathroom. She never went in there, but I guess she just couldn’t stand the thought that some room in her house might not be properly color coordinated.

For the longest time I thought you were referring to the wonder-bread print of her blouse as the shower curtain. Took me a while to see the rings attached to the belt around her waist. I’m slow like that.

One wonder if that skirt design ever actually existed. The “continental-style” overcoat was popular during the mid-50′s and featured a lot of appended hardware. Maybe that was the artist’s inspiration for this marvelous sartorial creation. The model certainly looks very pleased — perhaps because she is wearing something truly one of a kind, and hasn’t noticed any allergic reaction setting in quite yet.

This quite naturally leads to reflection on how Catherine Hurst, Aretta Young or Frances M. Richards, whose wisdom has previously been considered on Keepa, would have considered a young LDS woman contemplating wearing the fashion this young woman models or using the tinted Zee tissue she seems to be causing to levitate with the interesting gesture of her right hand and arm.

Boy, Ardis, I must have lived in an underprivileged household. I was born in 1952, and I don’t remember colored toilet paper. Heck, from 1955, I don’t remember white toilet paper. But you are right—that dress is obviously a shower curtain, complete with rings. It would be good in the rain, but probably hot in the summer.
