I have always liked shopping at charity shops but am realizing I make impulse purchases there. I really need to concentrate on a few great colors, styles etc. Better to pare down and do it well, I think. But it's harder than it seems. Many good colors etc in sleeveless, and you are right about that look for even mid 50s! Sure I could layer, but like you I live in a hot climate and layering has little appeal. <br /><br />I like all the outfits you had last week, and I wondered if you were gravitating toward pink without realizing it. I know you like bright colors!Robin Gnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1596162853017328439.post-39871022854528525972013-11-16T11:29:41.363-08:002013-11-16T11:29:41.363-08:00You may be right, Robin.

The one I'm wearing under the silver cardigan was on sale and I liked the short sleeves (better for most Over 60s than sleeveless). Have you looked in charity or thrift shops for some replacements - even they are only temporary - to give you time to find the right replacements? I'd hate to think you end up nekkid! There aren't any charity shops where I live in Spain, though the recycling bins are for a charity that helps disadvantaged people. At least I know that when I discard clothing it's for a good cause.Sue in Spainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18005957373268201709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1596162853017328439.post-23649493831394835882013-11-16T07:38:24.308-08:002013-11-16T07:38:24.308-08:00Ah.

Perhaps you have discovered a signature color?<br /><br />I might succeed at no repeat November because I am wearing things and then marking them for the charity pile. I am so discouraged right now with my ill-fitting clothes. I tried to wear a combination I hadn't worn before (multicolored purpleish top and a purple long sleeved top over it and was itching so badly before I could put on my shoes I took it all off. Both items are a little scratchy, and together they were misery. But why am I putting up with itching all day anyway? To the charity pile!<br /><br />Now comes more discouragement: can't find replacements. So once I get through November, I might be nekkid, as we say here in the South.Robin Gnoreply@blogger.com
