What would a Space Age Housewife wear?

Most of the time, just what any other woman my age might wear: jeans, capris, sandals, t-shirts, sweater sets, yoga clothes.

I do have a pretty good collection of vintage clothes, though, and I happened to be wearing part of my collection earlier this evening - a navy blue dress circa 1960, and a handmade apron from sometime in the mid-to-late 1950s, perhaps once worn by a real Space Age Housewife.

Both items are, of course, older than I am. Here is what happens when the 21st century meets Mrs. Cleaver...



I had a crinoline on with it for a while too, but in truth, my crinoline is too big and it kept sliding down. One thing I don't need is an "Oops, your slip is showing" moment. ;)
