I’m wearing several layers, tights, trousers, thermal vest, cashmere jumper and cardigan. I’ve been to a funeral , somehow it seemed extra cold.
Goddess? Does that mean 1930’s floaty silk neglige or those long frocks worn by Scarlet O’hara before her life changed? You need servants to wear impractical stuff like that. And it’s too cold

I didn’t tell you how old said trousers and top are did I? But as I understand LE now have clothes made in China I won’t be replacing them.

I say that sitting here in my Lands End jersey trousers and top

You're posh!
I'm wearing a Tulchan jumper that must be 15 years old and it just won't wear out.
Actually, it's far better than some of the rubbish sold lately.

Dress like a goddess
I have got on some Nike trainers - she's a goddess isn't she!

Sue450 people of our vintage are beyond fashion and have no need of designer labels. Our inner beauty shines out, that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it.

I can’t understand why anyone would want to dress like a goddess, if by that you mean 50s film star, in everyday life. I say that sitting here in my Lands End jersey trousers and top. If I were to venture out to the shops I’d swap the trousers for jeans.

Whaddya mean! I do dress like a Goddess - just nobody else seems to realise smile

Apparently it is the fashion to dress like a goddess at the moment.
Do any of you feel that you would want to dress like that.
The 50s films from America always had luxury clothes but now days we seem to want to dress down. Jeans, trousers trainers
which I wear a lot.
