A very important letter


Dear Cecily Allen, daughter of Renee an Wesley Allen,
You may be in possession of the coolest parents ever. First of all, the above picture was taken at someone else's wedding (in the mid-70s) and your mom wore white. Two words: my hero. The crocheted shawl? The strapless peasant dress? The mood ring? The man who un-ironically and unapologetically wears ruffles and a bow-tie? Yes Please. All four.
Love,
Piper (but I feel I speak for every woman)

P.S. This photo rocks too

P.P.S. Cecily writes: "This photo was taken in 1973 or 74 in Martha's Vineyard, Ma. I love this outfit from the bangles to her top that I would kill to have today." No lie.

More P's and S's: Visors. Bring them back.
