Sitting in the middle of a heatwave in Dublin at the moment, I cannot imagine ever needing a cardigan again. However, we know that next week the temps are to drop about 12 degrees. So I guess I will keep it nearby, just in case. So yes I think it will be a perfect transitional

Hello, my friends. I hope you are enjoying good sunny weather, like we are here in Ireland. This month’s theme with ‘Style Not Age’ is ‘Polka Dots’ (Emma’s choice). Graham and I were away for a few days in West Cork, staying at The Eccles Hotel and I wore my polka-dot shirt for dinner on

Hello, my friends. Even though the weather is still variable, there are definite signs of Spring. Daffodils are fluttering in the breeze and cherry blossoms brighten our neighbourhoods.

Hi Everyone Apologies, I am late with my ‘Style Not Age’  post.  This month, it is all about Sunset Shades. I love red and orange and everything in between. So, you would think I would find it easy to get an outfit together. Well, I have been so busy that it was Sunday night, the

Festival Fashion is a thing.  I love how musical festival-goers wear clothes that are appropriate to the music and performer. Festival outfits go way beyond dressing for the weather, but are a form of self-expression and are nearly as important as the music in many ways. You can tell that I am not attending a

Hello my friends. Well, there is plenty of evidence that we are experiencing global warming in the recent months. In Ireland, we had a heatwave in early May and wondered if that was our summer. Then we had some good weather in early June and now we have hot weather again. I chose this week’s
