Thank you so much for your kind welcome and comments. Have to confess I lost my nerve after posting my age and have only now plucked up the courage to check the website. I was really surprised to see so many postings but so pleased.
I live in the Uk and am happily married with three grown-up offspring and one grandchild. Since 1998 I have had a PC and love this new technology. I have studied on line with an American Senior group and edited a magazine for them for five years. That was fun but I have decided not to carry on.
I have always loved fashion and was lucky to have a mother and a sister who had style so they "dressed" me. Those were the days when a new outfit meant new clothes from head to foot, both under and over! When I lost my mother and my sister I was lost fashion-wise and it has taken me a while to even feel comfortable with my choice of clothes.
I am a Classic, I believe, though I do like dramatic accents: pretty belts, unusual embroidered handbags., striking scarves. I have too much black in my wardrobe but at least everything goes with everything! My everyday outfit: black trousers, white/cream blouse, coloured woollen cardigan.
I have loads of clothes, wardrobes full, and I attribute this pack-rat mentality to WW2 when we had clothing rationing!!
My biggest fear: looking like a bag lady!
My biggest problem: some redness diagnosed as rosacea but that I have controlled for years. Can't really be seen with a little concealer so I am fortunate (touch wood). You can see the redness in the posted image (Dec 2013)though.
My dearest wish: to have a streamlined "wardrobe" and de-cluttered wardrobes!
APRIL: I followed that link and Karen is so beautiful. Reckon she would look good in anything. The advice is great also and I'll be printing that off.
