Vintage mother/daughter outfits

When I was a kid, I had wanted my mother and me to have a matching outfit. My mother was aghast.

Today, I'm grateful to her and her impeccable taste for protecting me from myself. She innately understood that grown women shouldn't be dressing like children.

Now that she's older, she counts on me to advise her, the operating question being, "Is this an old lady outfit?"

1961 ad for Colgate toothepaste

It's a safe bet this ad ran in Jet and/or Ebony magazine. Unfortunately, in the 1960s, one almost never saw ads that focused on African-Americans in mainstream magazines.
