I’m back with more frills! In yesterday’s Style Not Age post I wore the pink version of this top. I bought them from my favourite shop in Funchal – Dona Hortensia – that always has something I can’t resist. For about 25 euros they were excellent value for money. I don’t wear much black lately […]
Vintage Shirt and Yellow Trousers + Style With a Smile Link Up
Sunday really lived up to its name…because it was a lovely sunny day, warm too. It was short lived though unfortunately as the rain has returned. Having seen the weather forecast, I shot these photos while I could! This vintage shirt has a matching skirt, but I wasn’t in a skirt mood – it’s going […]
Orange Maxi Dress + Style With a Smile Link Up
I think we can all agree that outfit repeating is a good thing, right? Well, I seem to have taken it a step further by wearing the same outfit AND accessories in the same place! I wore this orange maxi dress, hat, sunglasses and sandals in the Museu Quinta Das Cruzes last October. In fact, […]
Pink and Green Check Trousers + Style With a Smile Link up
Do you remember the orange and purple check suit in last week’s post? Well, these are the trousers in a different colourway. The jacket was sold out, although it’s now come back in stock in some sizes (still in sale). As I have jackets in bright pink, green and lime, I already have several options […]
Denim…But Not Jeans – March Style Not Age
I’m stepping back to the 80s for today’s outfit! When Jacqui chose the theme of Denim…But Not Jeans for this month’s Style Not Age post I immediately thought of my customised jacket and my two denim dresses. As I’ve already worn the jacket for a previous Style Not Age challenge and the other vintage denim […]
Everyday Fashion For Spring From Very + Style With a Smile Link Up
I love seeing all the new season fashion at this time of year; winter is behind us and we can look forward to lighter evenings and milder temperatures. That said, we’ve had some very changeable weather lately; one day last week we started with snow in the morning and had bright blue skies and sunshine […]
Fumbalinas Orange Print Kaftan + Style With a Smile Link Up
Happy International Women’s Day! I’m a day late with this post, watching the snow falling and wishing I was back in Agadir. I often think I was born to live somewhere warm, wafting around in a kaftan (retirement goals!). I drove to my mum’s yesterday with an aching back and knees, and collapsed on the […]
All Buttoned Up – February’s Style Not Age
Happy Monday! As it’s the last one of the month it’s time for February’s Style Not Age challenge. It was Gail’s turn to set the theme and she chose “All Buttoned Up”. My thoughts immediately turned to this button print shirt from Salamander Shirts. I’ve previously teamed it with green trousers and a pink beret […]
Cartoon Dog Print Shirt + Style With a Smile Link Up
Happy Valentine’s Day! I hope you’ve had a lovely day, whether you celebrate it or not. We didn’t make any plans as we’re busy getting everything ready for Isobel’s ski trip on Friday. It has been a whirlwind few days since I drove back from mum’s on Friday afternoon. You may have seen on my […]
Green Flower Pattern Jumper + Style With a Smile Link Up
It was only three weeks ago that I wore these green trousers with my green shaggy coat but here they are again! They are among my favourites and they go with so many other items in my wardrobe. This green flower pattern jumper is a fairly recent purchase; I bought it from TK Maxx at […]
