So nice to see him again.<br /><br />The old biddies would have a fit if they saw me wearing the floral print balloon leg jumpsuit I got last summer. You are so right, if we've got to this age and can't figure out how to wear something then it's best to give it a pass. That is a amazeballs jumpsuit you made and would be my favourite thing to wear all summer. If I pay you, could you make one for me with all that free time you have on your hands ;)Forest City Fashionistahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04428940427287921203noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4868048249049410936.post-63679203848723845132015-04-14T11:34:28.383+01:002015-04-14T11:34:28.383+01:00Awww, it's Jacob, I love seeing him, he's ...Awww, it's Jacob, I love seeing him, he's gorgeous!<br />What a fab sewing project, so utterly you and how nice of Jon to help you out when he was feeling poorly xxxMelaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12238571735302117986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4868048249049410936.post-10962362030860415972015-04-14T09:14:56.264+01:002015-04-14T09:14:56.264+01:00Sod the rules wear what ever you feel good in I sa...Sod the rules wear what ever you feel good in I say and you always look amazing no matter how large or bold the fabric is.

How wonderful that people give you all these wonderful gifts. They must be thrilled when you transform them into something gorgeous. This winter has been a bugger for lurgies, one thing after another. Poor old Jon, I feel for him, mine lasted for weeks, glad he's on the mend now. Ah, look at Jacob! What an amazing thing to have had a pet for so long. That 10p hat is fab! I can't wait for the booties here to start.

You are a maker of style not a follower of it!<br /><br />The sad fact is that so many people do not seem to have either the self awareness or the self confidence that enables them to simply wear what they feel comfortable in and enjoy. With personality, posture and knock out lipstick, anything is possible in our book!<br /><br />You are becoming very handy with a sewing machine. That really does extend your clothing options since it seems to us that you can manufacture 'haute couture' from curtains in an instant. We are impressed.<br /><br />And, as always, you accessorise your clothes with a most interesting selection of jewellery, scarves and hats. A life well travelled does reflect in these highly original additions and makes for a uniquely interesting look!Jane and Lance Hattatthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16831890261259302647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4868048249049410936.post-86065153756149744132015-04-10T11:12:57.831+01:002015-04-10T11:12:57.831+01:00I find it amazing your suit, I like the fantasy ti...I find it amazing your suit, I like the fantasy tissue and accessories are right but mostly you have the right personality!<br />With the awakening of the turtles is really spring!

Aha, the penny has finally dropped! <br />Well, bollocks to being told what to wear, how to wear it, and to "pulling it off" (which brings something altogether dirtier to mind for me, I'm afraid!) You look every inch a star in your culotte suit - glad that pattern's earning its keep, and that fabric is amazing.
