This was the only time I ever used them. I imagine my father's thinking was, well, she can't be any worse than any other 21 year old...Since then my career has taken such a different path from my family's habit that there's never been a place to use them again. If I were qualified for something that required it I would do it, however. <br /><br />BTW, there is a play now on stage called Love, Loss, And What I Wore. Using clothes to tell a life story.
