It has a v-patterned piece down the front, so I hauled it out for the lace which is back in vogue. It is also an orangey-red which looks a little more current than plain red.
The scarf is one of many that I got for a $ from a vintage shop which has since relocated; unfortunately they are no longer in the downtown area, so I can't pop in at lunchtime anymore.
The bracelet is from Big J's mom and are giant pearl beads with a sparkly flat bit.
The other news is now that summer is almost upon us, Big J and I are going to walk a lot more and we are trying to go on a high fibre, low fat diet. Perhaps I can lose another 5 pounds by summer's end!

You must be talking about True Value Vintage? I loved that shop! And now it's utterly gone... So sad. You look great - and could you believe that sun today? Yay!
ReplyDeleteHi Melanie: Yes! True Value Vintage! They had great stuff.
DeleteThe sweater is gorgeous. No wonder you've kept it so long.
ReplyDeleteThanks Terri - I was just glad I could actually wear it!
DeleteI'm really diggin' the orangey-red color that's in right now.
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't mind losing five pounds myself...preferably by the end of the month!
Sheila: IKR? But no, it's supposed to stay off if it takes longer to lose.
DeleteI can see why you kept the sweater - it's really pretty and suits you beautifully. Love the bracelet too.
ReplyDeleteHey Patti: Thanks! There were so many closet overhauls when I almost chucked it.
Deletelove the red lace on that sweater
