Hello everyone As promised I’m featuring a wonderful yellow coat I bought in a charity shop in Poole (Dorset, UK) which cost all of £5, I mean, when you see it, you’ll be amazed at the quality and, therefore, the price. But first of all, thank you for all the

Hello everyone This is a post of two halves. One half is the usual light-hearted look at clothes, which may, or may not, suit the older woman. And the second half is probably not entirely appropriate to this blog, but what the heck, live dangerously and say what you feel
I’d wear black tights all year round if I could – how about you? I think they make legs look great, and are warm and cosy to wear. I didn’t think wearing tights was an issue. But last week Jess Cartner-Morley (a fashion journo) nearly surpassed herself with a ridiculous
