The photographer is getting creative
On the way to lunch at Tea at The Top we just happened on this Honda Shadow cruiser ( had to look that up though my photographer aka Mr EM identified it immediately - funny I thought he was a MOD not a Rocker when I met him in the '60s lol!)
Today wearing:
Gap linen cutoffs ( as yesterday)
Fairtrade organic cotton dress I wear as a top because it's a bit thin for someone of my tender age to wear on it's own. Bought at the India Shop for £10 last year. Very cool to wear and great sleeves for the mature lady!

Accessories galore
Lovely gold/bronze leather peep-toe shoes by Van Dal from Russell and Bromley last summer ( must have been the cheapest shoes in that store at only £65!)
Soft knitted basket tote bag £1.99 from Oxfam two years ago.
Jade ring necklace from Takashimaya department store, Singapore 2006.
Two wooden bracelets from Senegal trader in French market three years ago
My favourite Citrine and silver ring - sitting in toe of shoe!
My three other capsule items
Just so you know - two tops (one worn today) and a pair of chinos.
Brie and grape salad
Tea at the Top is the prettiest and friendliest cafe in Salisbury. I often go there two or three times a week, meeting friends or just with Mr EM (when he pays!) They serve the best coffee in town. Far superior to all the national chains. It is furnished with eclectic vintage tables and chairs, surrounded by old paintings and prints and other interesting objets d'art for sale. The food is served on a lovely mix of old china and it is run by the charming Brenda and her beautiful daughter Jessica.
Fishing for compliments
Look at the plate on which my salad was served. Beautiful old porcelain from Bavaria. Delightful grey flying fish - leaping by my almost finished meal. Adorable.Tomorrow I shall be in London visiting the Sanderson Exhibition at the Fashion and Textile Museum followed by the Twenty Twenty Cricket match at Kennington Oval - watching free from a balcony terrace that overlooks the ground. These matches are quite exciting as they are fast paced and enjoy great crowd support. Of course a glass of tincture in hand helps to increase enthusiasm...
Wonder how you are all getting on with your wardrobe challenge?

I love this outfit - just perfect for the grey summery weather we are having at the moment.
That's a great look! Lovely lunch too....

Lovely outfit, and your day in London would be mine & Michaels dream, me for Sanderson him for cricket (I think I may have carried onto Liberty & Anthropologie for a look rather than cricket though)! Have a lovely day.
