Rosie

Have you seen this article with color photographs taken in the US leading up to and during World War II? They are so captivating - definitely worth a few minutes of your time. A couple of my favorite are the ones of Rosies. (They remind me of my mom, who used to prep F-16s.)



I especially love the second one - you can tell this woman is strong, hardworking, and tough, but with her blushed cheeks and painted nails, still beautiful and feminine.
