I really do admire how you pick out print colours for your lovely jewellery. I know you've said you put your outfits together for the week ahead and your forward planning shows in your perfectly colourful outfits. My fave has got to be your violet and pink day, that colour looks perfect for you. I've pretty much switched seasons now but I'm so pleased I held on to one or of white jeans as the weather has been pretty glorious!

You have such an eye for bargains but hey you're experiencing the rise in prices too! Yup,tops are at least £3 but now more and more they're £5 and rising. I'm finding that in some charity shops items are now starting at £15! Which is way too high - I mean they are 2nd hand. <br /><br />It's so interesting to see your activities too and your lovely family. But,I felt so sad when you wrote about the encampement - but it's important to acknowledge that life is not easy and for some it's very very hard. We need to face this and not turn and walk away. I used to knit for refugees so you've spurred me on to find a community in Brighton that helps refugees - there's sure to be something liek that here.

Also to plan it out the evening before instead of expecting a light bulb moment in the morning. I also have too much choice! I'll look forward to your tunic over long skirt experiment. I've been dabbling in the lagenlook style this last year but fear I'm too short to pull it off successfully. All those layers and irregular hemlines seem to look more proportioned on tall women. It's all fun nonetheless. And I try to remind myself that it's not the worst thing to have to say, "well, I won't be wearing that again" at the end of the day. xo<br />Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04243448881221465601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8265205501987535034.post-37746888037716421692018-09-28T20:38:06.306+01:002018-09-28T20:38:06.306+01:00Thank you, Karen.
With regards to outfits I somet...Thank you, Karen.<br /><br />With regards to outfits I sometimes get inspiration for 'looks' from other bloggers, magazines, the internet, Pinterest, people I see in the street. I want to try wearing tunics over long skirts - a look I saw on 'Advanced Style' so I'll be experimenting with that over the next few months...<br /><br />Sometimes, an outfit idea will pop into my head and I'll go and hang the garments up together and see if they work. For example, the orange print trousers and blue jacket combo above was one of these. But once it was on and I saw the photo I didn't think it worked. <br /><br />I have to plan my outfit for the next day before I get into bed and usually have it hanging up and ready to go for the following morning. If I don't, it can take me ages to sort an outfit out (too much choice!) and I don't usually have time to waste!<br /><br />Sometimes, I look through my wardrobe for inspiration and other times I'll stick with some tried and tested ones. I did at one point write down my outfits but I didn't keep it up. Ideally, I should have a file with photographs of all my 'successful' outfits and just be able to flick through when inspiration is needed. This would be doable as most of my outfit photos are readily available on my laptop - I just need the time...<br /><br />I stored one black plastic sackful of summer clothes in the loft including coats and jackets; and the chest at the end of my bed is full of summer clothing.<br /><br />Sorry for the lengthy reply!<br />xxxVronni's Style Meanderingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17122302881528071270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8265205501987535034.post-30287644811844284242018-09-28T20:21:56.336+01:002018-09-28T20:21:56.336+01:00Thank you, Monica.

I have a lot of lovely thrifted clothing too and always think I'm going to dress up (not fancy but styled) and then wear mostly the same tried and true combos every day. Is part of the ability to put together something more unusual or eclectic taking the time when you're not getting dressed for something to check out what goes with what? I always think I'll do that but then don't. I'd like to know if you take time behind the scenes to put things together or if it just happens for you? Also.... how many boxes of seasonal items do you have when you switch up seasons? Inquiring minds.....? I love your blog.

Besides, so what if someone made bad decisions? Once they haven't a roof overhead it hardly matters how they got there-a decent thing to do is alleviate the suffering. In the US we treat our homeless persons as not quite human and it breaks my heart. I hope I never get to the point of averting my eyes. <br /><br />Over the door racks are lifesavers in our small house-but watch that they don't scrape off the paint on the door frame each time you open the door. I couldn't understand where the pile of white paint chips in my bathroom were coming from until I happened to look up...
