Ah grace, I bought my first work overalls in 1970, in a flush of feminist freedom, from the union shop. Dont think theyd ever had a female customer. The ancient bloke in charge of the counter (yes they had a counter) shouted out Any dwarf sizes here? Weve got a real shortie! Different politics then.I loved those overalls – only cut them up for patches a couple of years ago.

Great self portrait and I like Yvonnes comment about self portraits…good idea.Do you take a self portrait every year?We never really got into the denim dungarees as work wear in Australia, more overalls made from khaki drill (brand name Hard Yakka ….obviously for hard work).Great post.Jacky xox

Grace I love seeing you. I also wore overalls in my hippy days. My mother hated them, that was good enough for me. Went with my army fatigue jacket. I know it is your birthday month and mine as well. So Happy Birthday and know that you look beautiful.

love the overalls and seeing you in them…we should all post pictures of us in our overalls. I wore them in the 70s and 80s and for working outside in the 90s. Just gave my last pair away because they were much too big for me now but they were oh so comfy.
