This is for Sally, pinkacorn, Liz and Ruthie, who have asked for photos of the clothes bargains I bought on Thursday. They don't look much there on the hangers, I admit, and do bear in mind that linen creases as soon as you look at it, but believe me when I say that the neck detail on the white dress is really pretty and there is lace detail at the neck and hem of the turquoise number, which has quite a swingy shape. I'll need something to relieve the pure white and the blue earrings are a favourite pair which I bought for about 20p on the Charles Bridge in Prague four years ago. [I also have a dark green pair like this and wish I'd gone back and purchased all the other colours the vendor had, too!] I'm thinking if I wear these with the white plus another item that matches them [perhaps a bracelet] then that will clinch the look. Now there's the matter of the correct biancheria intima to wear under each of these, especially with the effect of the sun! [And that could cost more than the clothes, here!]

Pretty, pretty - how I love linen despite the crumple factor. Amber accessories would look terrific with the turquoise - and the hair - though that's only what I think!
Oh yes, very nice. Light, summery, fresh and bright. Underwear will be the problem though. You will just HAVE to go and buy some new. Cool earrings as well.
It is FREEZING here today! I have just put a polo neck on under my woolly cardie. Brrr.
Yes but what are those half-moon things in blue at the bottom?
Oh no, a trip to the bra shop again. Still these very fine dresses deserve the very best accessories, especially new shoes.
Thanks, Sally. Amber's a good idea! Liz, yes, I know - I must! Can't spoil the look. I can't imagine being cold at the moment though it's not yet hot by Sicilian standards! James, they are earrings. Perhaps you didn't read the last bit. Jmb, yes, bra shop here I come - and shoe shop!
I particularly like the white outfit, Welsh and with the bright, lively accessories, you will look magnificent. You'll be turning heads all over the place. :)
I love the white dress... I have one just like it :)
Lee, you are kind. I'll think of you when I wear the white, then, Ruthie.
