General Everyday Clothing
| 1910 | |
| This photo shows the younger ladies wearing simple skirts and blouses. Often they were worn with a straw boater or wide brimmed hats for very special occasions. I think Grandma was left back in the 1890's!! |
| 1910 | |
| Notice the exposed neck instead of the high necked blouses favoured around that time. |
| C1910 | |
| James Pollard born Apr 1889 in Dublin city Ireland.
I'm guessing that he was aged about 21 when this photo was taken. |

| "Best wishes Christmas 1910" was written on the back of this card. |
| c1911 | |
| Joseph is living with his sister and brother in Law in Drumcondra, Dublin on the 1911 Ireland census aged 24 |
| c1912 | |
| They have dressed in their best clothes for the photographer. The mother's hairstyle is given volume by the means of pads usually made of horsehair and often known as "rats". |
| 1913 | |
| The seated, older lady favours a more structured blouse with a high collar while her stepdaughters favour soft collars and a less corseted look. Harty (right) has a more masculine style, her tie has a tiepin with an "H", she also wears a wristwatch. |
| 1913 | |
| The eldest sister (left) keeps a high collar while her younger sisters prefer lower collars. |
| 1913 | |
| Note that the mother still has a high collar whilst her daughter is wearing a softer lower collar. |
| 1913 | |
| My 2x great grandparents, Thomas and Alice Violet Connelly are sitting at the front. See how the daughters all have shorter sleeves whilst their mother wears longer sleeves |
| 1915 | |

| Baby girl aged 1 year, boy aged 3 years. |
| 1917 | |
| Beatrice aged 33 has mixed the newer fashion of soft collared more open necked blouse with a high necked lace or net one underneath, maybe just for "modesty" as her husband was 20 years her senior. |
| 1918 | |
| c1919 | |
| My grandmother and her children, in their normal everyday clothes. |
