Industrial Age of Film, Made in the 1960’s
So lately, I have been getting a lot of “You look like the mom from Mary Poppins!” And I think, the people who say that are really lame because everyone who is anyone, knows that her name was Mrs. Winifred Banks in the movie. I would’ve even accepted Mrs. Banks. Everyone KNOWS that Banks was the last name of the family, because at least one of the songs referenced the last name. You know, where the kids sing the end of their letter with “Jane and Michael…Banks.” Cue adorableness. Anyway, I thought you all would like to see how much I resemble her. First, her.

Okay, maybe you can’t see it in those photos. Here we are side by side.

I’m on the right. I know it’s at a different angle, but surely you can see the resemblance. Crazy that I even had that same dress. I mean, I like that movie, but it was purley accident that I happened to buy the same dress. Not THE dress worn in the movie, but one identical to it at a thrift shop when I was in my vintage clothing phase. And my stationary phase. And my floral couch phase. I can’t believe I ever owned that dress. Who looks good in mustard yellow? I am rockin’ that hairstyle though.
