Hello everyone I do hope you had a good Christmas and New Year and a bit of a break from work, although, if you’re a woman, and the majority of my readers are, I bet you did a lot of cooking 🙂 Throughout these ‘holidays’ or Twixmas, as some media
Party frocks – actually I always prefer a party skirt!
Oh my word, it’s almost Christmas, and I’m nearly ready and it’s going to be fine. But I do have mixed feelings about the holiday. Christmas for me, now, is too much. It’s great when you’re a child and your parents rush around and give you the best Christmas they
Coats, I love them and especially if they’re red, yellow, green and orange!
Hi people I’m so sorry to have not posted last week – where does the time go! But see my postscript for one reason why 🙂 Anyway, on this rather grey day I’d like to sing the praises of wearing colourful outer-wear. This is partly prompted by Melania Trump’s canary
Up to London – for good news and good views!
Hi there After several months of sorting out the new flat we found time to go up to London for some exhibitions and my annual skin check at The Mole Clinic, which, btw, is not part of the NHS but I think the price worth it as I get a
A new skirt and Hair Part II
Hello again I’m always on the lookout for skirts, which I prefer to jeans, pants and trousers. I have two pairs of black skinny jeans one of which has sparkles on it and which I wear with a top in the evening, and I’ll wear that pair when we go

Jackets Part II and another necklace
Hello again Weather-wise we’re now fully into cold starts in the morning (for the UK) and a lot of rain, perhaps more than usual. Fortunately, even our leader (the one that I am not fully in tune with!) has said that the flooding in the north of our country is
A new hat and a facial, and gosh the choice you have now! Plus out and about in Brighton
Hello everyone First things first I bought a new hat! Rather pleased with it. I saw it in charity shop on our Sunday walk and yes, you’ve guessed, I pounced! It cost all of £4! We were out and about watching the Vintage Car Rally which begins in London and
More random thoughts on books and things
Hello everyone I’m still rearranging things in the new flat including my makeup drawers, which are now my costume jewellery drawers. I am, btw, going to re-start the makeup videos, not immediately, but at some point. There’s a whole load of reasons why I stopped them and I’ll be writing
A necklace, a new jacket (or is it a coat) and some books I’ve been reading
Hello everyone Thanks so much for your comments on Peaky Blinders. You convinced me! I’ve started watching it and I don’t know why I avoided this series all these years as I really like it. I wore the spider brooch (see last post) last Saturday when I returned to my
