    My summer wardrobe, but am I the milkmaid type?

    More about last month’s no-buy effort and a reveal!

    Hi everyone I apologise, late again, but life got in the way! More about that in another post, I think. Anyway, what a month!  It began with me at the tail end of having a series of viruses (not Covid)

    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,
