Be true to yourself .......

by Lottie
(Somerset,England)

Just wear what makes you happy ...... I love "sweet pea" colours, pretty shoes (paint my toe nails every colour of the rainbow because I think I have lovely feet), gypsy earrings, floaty scarves ... I live on a retirement site (I am 73) ... most ladies are of the tan tights and beige brigade and think me a touch "away with the fairies" .... but who cares ... ignore the rules ..... simply look in the mirror .... if you like what you see .... then it is right for you ...

Must admit there is a certain chain store that does a Per Una range and that is where I find inspiration and charity shops .....

Do you know the poem "When I grow old I shall wear purple" ..... wise words ..... the world does not only belong to the young ....be happy!!
