    A crisp black and white outfit for our grey days!

    Hello everyone   Apologies for the delay bringing this to you. Life and a nasty near (so fairly tolerable) migraine got in the way and then a busy weekend. But here I am and no headache – yay!   For

    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

    My attitude to ageing and all that malarkey. In other words do I have FOGO?

    Hello everyone   Ok where to start. It begins and ends, I think, around certain things that are happening to me right here and now. But then there is my mindset, which recently hasn’t been in a good place. But

    I’m back and here’s some pics of the cruise!

    Hello everyone   I’m back and actually apart from the shock of experiencing British weather, which is so much cooler than the weather we experienced on holiday (7C 44F this morning, in contrast Gdansk was 28C 82F) I am glad

    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,
