She’s got style . . .
Warning: If you click on the bigger image of Sweet Polly you go to the Underdog show website and the theme song immediately starts playing!
This post was supposed to be all about my vintage simplicity skirt that I finished. Today Mr. Gray Cat took a bunch of photos of me and the skirt . . . I had on my black pumps, my red lipstick, and my vintage hat with the veil . . . I was trying to upload the images onto the computer when the neighborhood had a sudden blackout. It was brief, but enought to corrupt the card so all the images are gone . So instead I’m going to blog about Polly Purebred instead.
Tonight, before the blackout, we watched some old episodes of the Underdog show we rented from Netflix. I wanted the kids to see the original Underdog before they get corrupted by the Disney movie version. Well, the kids loved the shows and Mr. Gray Cat was equally happy to watch–it turns out that he had an Underdog ring with secret compartment when he was a kid (way before my time–I only watched old reruns of Underdog in my childhood). I noticed how fashionable Sweet Polly Purebred was–and it turns out she was based on Marilyn Monroe. She’s definately my favorite canine ace reporter. I apologize for not having a better picture of this two dimensional fashion icon. If you look around at the Underdog show website you can see her in her red jacket, white top, and black pencil skirt–very chic, Polly!
