TGIF Guys!<\/p>\n

The weeks are flying and soon it will be Christmas! Time to razzle, dazzle, and flash those sequins, but first, there is Remembrance Day! I call it Remembrance fortnight because from November 1st right up to the 14th, everybody wears their red poppies on lapels, collars, and hats. Sounds morbid, but I take out my funeral attire, which is black and white. I only ever wear this outfit for funerals and Remembrance Day! and then file it away in my closet. That’s why this German-made houndstooth jacket, which is 19 years old, looks as good as new!! I find German-made clothes are usually of a very high quality.<\/p>\n

For the first two weeks of November, I tend to wear mostly black and white, with a pop of red. Apart from anything, it\u00a0looks best with the poppy! Being a creature of habit, I keep certain outfits for certain occasions and have been honouring this tradition for at least 15 years now. It’s actually fun! Kind of like taking out certain seasonal decorations!<\/p>\n

\"65C1E285-B606-402E-8B6C-9963D68113D4\"<\/a>For a couple of years, I used to wear my children’s christening outfits on their birthdays lol! But the clutter was drowning me, so I had to let them go! I get very sentimental about clothing, and tend to hang on to them for that reason. I have happy outfits and sad outfits. I have outfits which every time I wear them, I have a brilliant time, and then others, not so! Clothes are really interesting in that regard! I attribute a lot of that to colour. I definitely am at my happiest wearing bright cheery colours! Even though I know, without a shadow of a doubt that black is a classic, and always looks so elegant, it just doesn’t feel ‘me’. So, with clothing, you have to feel ‘You’. If you don’t, it shows! You gotta be happy in your own skin!<\/p>\n

Lots of Love and TGIF!<\/p>\n
