What fashion items remind you of your parents?

There's nothing my mum wore that I would ever wear apart from some sandals that I loved. I can't quite remember exactly what they looked like but I've been searching for a pair like them for decades. I've just found a shop called memery shoes and I've been looking at their 1950's sandals and they sort of look like them but they're still not quite right. I probably couldn't wear them anyway because of my mutant feet [and I don't go anywhere that involves dressing up anyway, although I do have a 1950's style dress that I bought in a shop in Edinburgh and a hat that I found in a charity shop; it would be nice to have the sandals to go with them]. I can just about picture them in my head; they didn't have sling backs. My Aunty Kitty used to come on holiday with us and she always wore her hat indoors. All my family have thin hair so I wish it was still the done thing to do that. I have a photo of my mum sitting on the beach with her coat on. Oh, I did buy some pom pom slippers years ago like the ones my granny wore in the only photo I have of her.

my mum had a heavy sheepskin coat and would put it over the bed when it was cold for me and my sister who shared the double bed in our room.
