It's funny, but when I look at these models that I admired when I read our Seventeen magazines all those years ago, I remember so many of the photos as if it were yesterday! I am too short to have ever been a model - not that I could have anyway - but it is definitely true that I wanted to be like them. I loved the clothes, the ads, everything!
Wait, I am sure that is the girl next door! Isn't she cute? Love T
ReplyDeleteme too heidi. love the seventeen cover with the crochet maxi skirt.
ReplyDeleteBonnie was a great model for Seventeen because her look was usually simple and down-to-earth, something that a non-model girl could hope to imitate. Thank you for this great feature! You have a wonderful collection of pictures.
ReplyDeleteShe sure was the "all American girl" wasn't she?
ReplyDeleteI remember these photos too. It's like Seventeen Mag. was imprinted in my brain back in the 60's and it all comes back when I see these pictures... the cloths and everything.
Nice post...
