    Hi Vivienne,
    I would love for you to help me with my wardrobe.
    I am a woman of a certain age working in a creative field, and casual office. I want to look appropriate, chic, but maybe slightly quirky! Comfort is essential, I am a tropical woman, I get hot easily. I prefer to anchor with black and grey. Any suggestions are apprciated!

    Was so taken with the shawl, I ordered it! I think I will consider the shawl my New Winter Coat! Hope we get a little winter weather in Texas this year. Teal blue is going to be my theme color for this fall and winter. I realized I have bought several items for my simple wardrobe in this wonderful hue. Thanks, Vivienne

    This weekend I read this article about how to make a living from a blog: Vivienne, could this be you? The manufacturers of the clothes you select ought to be very keen to sponsor you – I'm assuming you hadn't already thought of this but here is the link, in case you were interested:

    Love this, but haven't a single existing match. Where to start if you have limited funds?!!!!

    Brilliant. These are my colours! I wouldn't call those petrol blue, more what I call a French blue, but never mind. I have been considering a different sort of palate change. For most of my life my hair was some dark to light shade of blonde, mostly ash/dishwater but as a child my hair had reddish highlights in the sun (how that worked, I'm not sure). A hairdresser once told me I could pull off dark auburn, my mother's (chosen) hair colour and after I retired I went for that. I've enjoyed it immensely; my eyes have always been on the grey side of blue, but with auburn hair they are very blue for a change! However, I have been wondering at what age I should consider going grey, or at least back to blondish. At some point the dark colour will no longer work. So, I have been considering my (very few) clothes purchases with this potential change in mind. Just a thought for you in case you were ever casting about for something else to write about.
