Has fashion changed?

Today is the 27th day of the 5th month, the 148th day of 2016 with only 211 shopping days until Christmas.  In addition to being the kick-off to a holiday weekend here in the US, it  is also: 
  • Cellophane Tape Day
  • Don't Fry Day
  • European Neighbors' Day
  • Hug Your Cat Day
  • National Death Busters Day
  • National Grape Popsicle Day
  • National Heat Awareness Day
  • National Title Track Day
  • National Wig Out Day
  • Nothing To Fear Day
  • Old-Time Player Piano Day
  • Sunscreen Protection Day
In 927  Simeon I the Great, the first Bulgarian to be recognized as Emperor, died.  ((come on, admit it – you had to google Bulgarian Empire too!)).  In 1703  Peter the Great founded the city of Saint Petersburg.  In 1927 the last Ford Model T rolls off the line. 

The Fashion Police have decreed that you cannot wear white [an exception being tennis shoes] or straw [no hats or handbags of any kind, not even totes] before Memorial Day.  Linen and open shoes are frowned upon as well, but they aren’t considered quite as big a sin.   I have three questions:  [1] does Memorial Day mean the federal holiday [as per Congress in 1968] or the actual date of  May 30th established in 1868;  [2] can you wear these items during the Memorial Day weekend or do you have to wait until after the weekend; and [3] what do the Fashion Police say in areas of the world without a Memorial Day Holiday?  Pending an answer from the powers that be, I may daringly try to wear white sandals this weekend and just hope that Serial Mom doesn’t see me…   

Enjoy the unofficial start to the summer!  And please, in the midst of the activities,  take a quiet moment to remember the real reason Memorial Day was declared a day of remembrance in the first place
