My latest find – and it’s something spidery that sparkles! Plus another view of my favourite skirt and what I’ve been watching!

Hello everyone Just look what I found in a nearby shop yesterday – a spider brooch which I shall wear and wear, I promise. I’ve just bought it so no pix of me wearing it yet but here it is by my newly painted nails to get the size. As

Second-hand September and an out-of-doors Brighton weekend

Second-hand September and an out-of-doors Brighton weekend

Hello again I expect most of you know that this is a month where we are supposed to not buy anything new. Despite it being London Fashion Week influencers and models have asked us to only buy second-hand clothes throughout September. One of those influencers, Stella Tennant (grand-daughter of one of

A glimpse of our streamlined and de-cluttered apartment

Hi everyone Moving home in the UK can be very stressful as it was for us, and it had quite an impact on my physical self and I shall be talking about that in my next post (not to worry, as I’m sorting myself out) but today it’s about how

That was a week that was – but moving on!

Hello everyone And thank you for the comments re: MrF and the concern you showed.  His follow-up clinic was briskly reassuring and we move on from there.  Meanwhile, having at the time been Mrs Competence personified 24 hours later I crashed and didn’t sleep well for several days. I too

The not-quite January sales

The not-quite January sales

Once upon a time sales started the day after Christmas, which is Boxing Day in the UK and, as you know, nothing to do with boxing (!) and I think I recall that even further back sales began on the 1st of January!  But now we have Black Friday (quite

The blessings of friendship – and cold weather!

The blessings of friendship – and cold weather!

Hello I do like winter weather. Well, I qualify that, as we’re just at the beginning of winter and we’ve not had weeks of that grey damp (gets in your bones) weather that we have here in the UK. Today is a bit grey in the south though, but I

What’s your style?

Hi everyone As most of you know I wore jeans for several years after I retired and then slowly, over time, gathered together a sense of style that wasn’t work orientated (mainly suits) nor w/e relaxation and leisure (a variety of jeans). When I’m out and about I see a

Out and about in Brighton

Out and about in Brighton

Hello again We’re still working on the new GDPR Privacy Policy, but it should be in place early next week. You’d think I’d be saying what a lot of nonsense, and why include a fashion blogger that doesn’t sell anything in what looks like a lot of red-tape and bureaucracy.

Hatwalk 29 – April 2018

Hatwalk 29 – April 2018

Another post on wearing hats around town. I know some of you say that you can’t wear hats but I think everyone can (especially when it’s the winter!) and the way to start with hat wearing is with a beret, which, I think, suits every type of face.  So here

About Me

My name is Penny, I am 73 years old and I live in Brighton, East Sussex. My reasons for writing a fashion blog is that I have built up a great wardrobe on very little money mainly because I buy from charity shops.

So my blog will feature the clothes I have found since I retired, and the clothes that I continue to find in my local charity shops. From time to time I will also comment on issues around women and ageing.

Penny,
