    Hatwalk 29 – April 2018

    Hatwalk 29 – April 2018

    Another post on wearing hats around town. I know some of you say that you can’t wear hats but I think everyone can (especially when it’s the winter!) and the way to start with hat wearing is with a beret,

    What am I thinking about on this cold and snowy day? Cruise wear!

    Over here in the UK we complain about the weather a lot. In fact, I think it’s in our DNA, which is strange as we don’t do extremes, instead we have a temperate climate with a lot of mild and

    Jeans and slacks and pants for Spring

    Hi I’m a skirts and dresses kind of person.  Skirts more than anything – I just love them and the dressier the better.  I don’t think I look as good in jeans and slacks, but I’ve been wanting to buy

    A trip to London gets you thinking!

    Hello again! I don’t know about you, but I couldn’t live a quiet life in the country.  I tried it once. No, it’s not where I like living!  More than anything else what bothered me was the getting into a

    Hello dear friends and thank you so much for your good wishes and thoughts about the anxiety I had (which I think a lot of us suffer from) before travelling. Because, of course, on the actual day I was fine,

    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,
