Marie, I did smile at Allie’s “walking wardrobe” comment but shuddered at the thought of the reason for it. I can’t really imagine it …. the various times I’ve visited the northern hemisphere have always been in the spring/summer touring season. Meanwhile, here in Perth, this had been an extremely mild summer, with no runs of days over the 40°c (although the eastern states have had their heat waves). And our winters are also mild, sometimes some snow might fall on Bluff Knoll, down near Albany in the south of our very large state, but is rare for it to last a day if indeed it doesn’t melt as it touches the ground. In Perth, we might have just a few nights diving to single figures °c and with the days mostly in the low to mid teens. All of which is not helping you, is it, only showing why I can sympathise but not empathise. Be safe, warm and well my dear friends.
Experienced a very nice NSV today – going out for lunch, decided to put on a pair of white, stretchy pants which I’ve had for about 3 years and usually wore with longer, floaty tops. Didn’t need to do that today. I was able to wear a slim line, hip length, stretch knit top taken from my TOTF back-of-the-wardrobe-bag. (For the uninitiated TOTF=Tops Of The Future, likewise JOTF, POTF, SOTF etc). The top fitted as it was meant to when I bought it a dozen or more years ago and the pants fitted like a pair of well cut slacks instead of unflatteringly bulging tights. Was I happy? Thrilled? YES, I WAS🙆🙆🙆 (checked the full length mirror more than once, just to be sure😉)
Have a good weekend, everyone. MFODAAT💜
