Canada’s gossip queen is opening her back pages to share some very stylish family history. Elaine Lui—known as Lainey Gossip to the celebrity-obsessed masses—has often blogged about her darling mother, and it seems we could all learn a thing or two about fashion trends from her:

“It’s amazing to me that everything my ma is wearing in this shot from well over 30 years ago is back on trend today. Can you tell she LOVES having her picture taken? Even when she was very, very ill last year in the hospital, she’d perk up when I pulled my Blackberry camera out to document her condition.” – Elaine Lui, Lainey Gossip

Lainey’s mother is so pretty and, yes, that’s totally still a cute outfit.

Totally chic outfit! I love all the highlights Lainey does of her mom. Her mom really is stylish – and I do love how fashion is cyclical.

To be fair, Lainey, your ma really was beautiful. This picture is great, as well as the other ones you posted.
