    Out and about and feeling energised

    Hello!   I do feel as though, along with socialising with friends, my cultural life fell into a black hole over the months of December and January and even into February, what with the cough we had and that minor

    My favourite buys and other happenings in 2022

    About Me

    My name is Penny, I am 78 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
