    Annie Lennox

    I grew up seeing Annie Lennox, the Scottish pop singer, on TV in the early eighties, and always found her music, videos, and "look" interesting. I do think she sometimes used tartan in her clothing.

    Thought I might Google her and tartan. Looks like her daughter, Tali, is involved with Burberry tartan and some kind of kilt-like fashion garment.

    * Not claiming that's a good thing.

    Well, isn't anyone going to complain that Burberry is destroying the minds of the youth?

    I liked her music, however, she had the same look as some of the terrorists we were after in those days. I never did figure out who had that look first.

    I just remember what Annie Lennox looked like in the first half of the eighties.

    Thanks for posting the picture of Tali, Rob. Is she wearing the kilt-like garment?

    I didn't find any of her in kilt-like garments Ted. She's wearing a blouse that looks sort of like burberry but is blue (maybe it's also considered burberry??).

    I don't know. It was just discussed in an article that was on several sites when I Googled. I guess it doesn't matter much, since she's wearing something tartan.

    Just a line of thought that linked back to Scotland, or a Scottish person, I recall from when I was a kid.

    Thanks for posting a picture of Annie, Chas.

    I changed my signature. The old one was too ridiculous.
