Thank You ALL!!

Hi Everyone,

A big thanks for all your kind wishes this week.

They are very much appreciated and I'm slowly feeling better-hope to venture out in the next couple of days to try and catch up with everything, haha!!

Have a lovely weekend everyone and I wish you all well too!

Hope I do too!!

Looking this good in my 50s, that is!! Looking through Vogue for January 2009, I just had to show these pictures of Jo Wood, aged 53, sporting her Les Chiffoniers leather leggings.
I think she looks soo gorgeous and gives 20, 30 and 40 somethings a run for their money in the style stakes.

Similiarly, Carine Roitfeld, 50 also looks super fabulous, rocking in her denim skirt ensemble.

It just goes to show, style is for all ages-its the attitude you have that says it all, however old or young you are or feel!!

My thrift finds this week

Well, winter is well and truly here for a lot of us and for me in England, its been very cold and chilly this week. I've been sort of keeping my eyes out for another winter coat or jacket, but was only going to buy something if it was just right for me. So, on the way to work yesterday, I passed my local charity shop and lo and behold, on the rack waiting for me was the perfect black fur vintage pre-owned jacket!
I haven't owned real fur before, I have 3 faux fur jackets and 5 leather jackets. Its not that I'm anti fur (well I enjoy my meat and leather jackets too much!), I just hadn't seen one I liked enough I suppose, to buy. Anyhow, this one was only £5.75 and it fits like a glove!
I couldn't wait to pair it with my other find of the week, my black denim jean/leggings, which were from the Salvation Army for £3.99. They are from Primark and have a zip ankle and ruch at the ankles too. They are so comfy and I thought they would go well with my black biker boots.
I'm also wearing a grey chunky polo neck (Marks & Spencer-thrifted) and my sequin black denim waistcoat. During and after this photo shoot, it was relentlessly wet, windy and cold, so when I went to town to do shopping for my mum, I had to put on my black padded parka with the hood up. I still came back like a drowned rat, LOL!!
I'm very pleased with the jacket, as it will go with so much and keep me lovely and warm too-as long as its dry enough to wear it!!
Oh, yes, when I went back into my local charity shop, the gold boob tube was there, as well as a lovely vintage sequin jacket. Thanks so very much for all the yays on my previous post about the boob tube, but when I saw the sequins again, I just decided I'm more than happy with the sequins I have. So, someone else can nab these bargains, haha!!
