A guide to style and good tailoring

Hi welcome to my own unique perspective on what constitutes style and individualism. The vast majority of the photos are taken using a mobile phone camera and I have no make up on.......

I'm in my late 30's and I'm also a widow which probably explains why I look so god damn hot in black, well that and being an ivory skinned pale red head! It also documents my wardrobe, so many people seem fascinated by my clothes and compliment me for how I look wearing them.

It is one woman's campaign against Jeans, Tracksuits and Ugg Boots!

More importantly it's about altering your view on life and trying to do the right thing even though it isn't always the easiest.

This blog is a story in taking pride in yourself and not letting yourself go, or settling for second best because you know what girls? No one really is better than someone if they don't treat you like a Queen................

Rebel Yell! Don't Jolene Me


I love the Americana Cowboy prints from the 1950s, they make me smile. Today's dress is one of my favourites of this genre in Bandana print. It makes me want to twirl around the office. The white flash across the bust adds interest and the lace around the bottom of the skirt makes it very girlie.

It makes me think of the confederate flag (called after General Lee), Rodeos, Little house on the prairie and "Rebel Yell" by Billy Idol.

I don't wear this dress very often because people seem to Jolene me in it, and I don't like that. But hey Dolly is never wrong and when a busty blondes sings about "Your beauty is beyond compare, with flaming locks of auburn hair, ivory skin and eyes of Emerald green" then you know everyone really wants to be a redhead :)

I'll save the rebel yell for later on!
