[QUOTE="Lastkidpicked, post: 217481, member: 237"] Growing up around Dallas (the city) I knew a few people like Miss Ellie and I can tell you about the sack dresses from that perspective. There is a set of people in Dallas who feel comfortable with their wealth, and have no need for "Keeping up with the Jones's" They simply gravitate towards the most comfortable and easy care clothes when they are choosing what to wear. [IMG]https://i.ytimg.com/vi/LrjzWQV7Efc/hqdefault.jpg[/IMG] Leslie needs to compete in a male dominated business, so she has to dress up, especially during meetings with clients. [ATTACH=full]21089[/ATTACH] Rose McKay is climbing the social ladder, so she needs to "look the part". But Miss Ellie isn't competing with anybody, is not interested in climbing the social ladder, and she has the confidence to simply wear what is most comfortable. [IMG]https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/YNkAAOSwstxVP5aA/s-l500.jpg[/IMG] I like this picture. No pretense, just a couple having coffee. [/QUOTE]
