    Two new skirts and some more health news

    Hello again   It’s another week and as I write it’s another storm. Today is better though, with clear skies, but it’s cold and we’ve had a frost.   We’ve had two named storms, one after the other. We don’t

    Good news – it’s colder! And. More good news!

    Hi everyone   I do love my coats and hey, it’s colder (for the UK) this week, so out come some of my coats. I’ve said before, my philosophy regarding coats is that my outerwear in winter is the key

    I do love skirts!

    Hello everyone   Well, it’s still not quite what I think Autumn/Fall weather should be as it’s quite warm (for the UK) for the time of the year, which on the one hand is good and on the other, maybe

    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,
