    Apologies the previous blog post was a little early!

    So sorry everyone!   I have no idea how my blog on Curiosity was published as I was nowhere near the publish button.  I was actually clicking on a photo and saving it! Somehow the Curiosity blog, which was in

    Curiosity

      Hello!   Well, I found this month’s theme for our international  collaboration quite the challenge. I tried several times to write about curiosity and discarded them all, one after the other. Eventually I got the post together and, tbh,

    What a difference a bit of warmth makes!

    Hi everyone   It’s the end of May and wow, at last it’s warmer here and I’ve started wearing my dresses. Three cheers for that! It’s interesting how I’ve moved from wearing skirts in the summer to wearing dresses. Only

    My Annie Hall look and thoughts on that front page!

    Hi everyone   Well, so far this year has been a bit rubbish but I’m nearly back to ‘normal’ although just as you think you’re completely better that exhaustion comes back again as it did yesterday. Never mind, it’s onwards and

    Gardens and gardening – tell us about it!

    Hi everyone     This month’s subject for our international monthly collaboration is ‘Gardens and Gardening’.   I chose the theme as I love both! Yes, gardening is my passion and as for gardens, I’ve had a few! Now I’m

    Hello everyone – an update on things!

    Hello   It’s been a bit of a gap – many apologies. Normal service will be resumed as soon as possible but life has got in the way.   A couple of weeks ago, Mr F had what we thought

    Whimsy?

      Hi everyone Whimsy is the theme of our monthly international collaboration and I put a question mark by the title as tbh, I really wasn’t sure what whimsy meant. It’s not a word I use all that much. So

    Is this the find of the year!

    Hello everyone   Wowzer – it’s actually warm and sunny here in the UK so I bought two (more!) lovely charity shop summer dresses today. But this post is not about the dresses it’s about the best vintage and pre-loved

    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,
