Purple ladies update

Way back, Tall Guy blogged about the ladies I drive past on the way in to work, which I refer to as ''Purple Ladies.'' Today, I had the good fortune to be able to clear off my desk at work (an all-day task, I assure you!) and get re-organized, and I came across a newspaper clipping that I'd saved because it had the name of the beauty school. Googled it, and got some photos of their Spacefleet Academy Cadet uniforms.

The name of the institute is the Queensland School of Beauty Therapy. And they do look like Space Academy uniforms, don't they?

Maybe the darker uniforms are for the senior cadets, and the lighter uniforms are for the junior cadets?

Please note that I'm not making fun: I'm not making fun -- I honestly **do** think they're pretty nifty, sci-fi outfits.







And, within the Australian context, where gradeschool and high school students wear school uniforms, these probably don't stick out to the same extent that they would in the U.S.
