A trip to London!

A trip to London!

Hi everyone Thanks so much for the lovely comments after last week’s blog where I said, ‘Ageing? Not sure about this lark!’ But I’m over that and I think it’s just a birthday thing. Here’s a selfie I took two days ago to just show you how the wrinkles are

What do we think about when we think of ageing?

Hi everyone I shall be changing my details in my bio again, and this time it’s my age. Yes, last week I turned 76 – how did that happen? I had a wonderful day as, because of the Platinum Jubilee my birthday on June 2nd was a Bank holiday, so

Getting your skin checked out – it’s important!

Hi everyone Did you know that May is Skin Cancer Awareness Week in the UK and it is also World Skin Cancer and Melanoma Awareness Month? As you know we went up to London last Wednesday and that was absolutely great as, yes, it as the first time since November

My summer wardrobe, but am I the milkmaid type?

Hello everyone The weather here is beginning to warm up a little and this week is getting to the heights of 23-25C, that’s 73-77F, which is hot for us here in the UK. So I thought it time to show you 2 of the 3 charity shop dresses I bought

Mid-season wear for cool days

Hello everyone Well, yesterday in the south of England it was a cold, cold day, brrr, and it’s May! Hmm! Fortunately I hadn’t put away all my cold weather clothes so I wore leggings plus a mid-length charity shop skirt and a yellow wooly jumper with a long sleeved, roll-neck

I’m warmly wrapped up in my favourite place!

Hi everyone How are you all?  Weather good where you are?  I read of bloggers across the pond who currently have weather in the 90s! That’s, of course Fahrenheit, which would be 32C in our part of the world.  I grew up with Fahrenheit measuring temperatures (how many of you

Two skirts and another update on the move!

Two skirts and another update on the move!

Hi everyone I hope you all had a good Easter. Actually is it me or has it become a tad commercialised these days with all the exhortations to buy Easter eggs and other goodies?  Who remembers when the bakeries opened on Good Friday morning (when everything else was shut) and

Two new raincoats and more news of the move!

Hello everyone We continue to unpack and things look a little better. It’s getting there as Mr F often likes to say. And that’s the view from our bedroom window, which is quite a contrast to the urban view we had in the last place of a block of flats

More about last month’s no-buy effort and a reveal!

Hi everyone How are you all? I hope the events in Europe are not impacting on your mental health too much. I say that from the privilege of not being in Ukraine or any country embroiled in war. I find I have to ration my news watching and I don’t

The (as usual) late end-of-the-month review. February 2022

Hi everyone I apologise, late again, but life got in the way! More about that in another post, I think. Anyway, what a month!  It began with me at the tail end of having a series of viruses (not Covid) which I think I got from my lovely new grandson

About Me

My name is Penny, I am 76 years old and I live in Lewes, 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,
the Frugalfashionshopper
