Mudcrutch (Tom Petty)

The music of Tom Petty has always appealed to me  although most of that is currently on compact disc since I got into cds in the late 80's replacing tapes and vinyl lps.
Recently Tom has returned to performing and even making a new recording with his original backing group done over two weeks last August, Mudcrutch and this album released today is the outcome.
The lead off single is Scare Easy which was issued in March.
I bought the double lp version because unusually Tom has decided to make the lp have the widest difference between loud and soft sounds so while the overal volume may be low it ebbs and flows better which is more relaxing, something I approve of strongly.

Fashion


The spring fashions here have been interesting not least the popularity of Pinafore Dresses in a variety of differing lengths and materials.There a staple of my 'little girl' self image.
Here's one I recently bought which has a cotton/elastene top part (the Pinafore), the lower is portion is jersey in a just above the knee length.
It ties up at the back.








There are other kinds of littles fashion that call out to me though such as the kind that are more casual or playwear such as this:
It's very frilly dungaree with sown in blouse with a pretty pink bow with pink frills on the outer legs of the shorts part. I'd love to be in something like that.
