Early 80s, Clayton, Pre-Prom, American School in London

(or What Does This Button Do in PhotoShop?)

That’s Clayton on the left. As far as fashion goes, everyone is so on the mark it’s almost as if they’re in costume. How adorable is my brother’s date? — look at her long red nails — I remember when I used to have those.

That’s a hand-woven Picasso rug that my mom bought in Hong Kong back in the 70s hanging above them on the wall. Once so special it was treated as “art,” it now lies on the floor in my living room & has been thrown up on more times than my mom probably ever dreamed possible.
