Most of the other participants in #Darecember are young, Aussie mums
and it’s summer down there, so I thought I’d show that I was young once too! The photo on the left was taken on my July birthday some years ago…I’m wearing a blue denim pinafore dress with men’s, striped tee shirt, dangly earrings and HUGE specs
The right hand photo was taken this afternoon….hag in winter….denim. Grey denim skirt with asymmetrical seams and raw hem, wool/cashmere mix jumper and glittery pasta necklace, made and presented to me by my Grandson. Just the kind of outfit for relaxing inside on a cold, frosty day.

Looks like a shot from the 70s? Cutie! Loving that present-day skirt too.
No…from 1990! I think it must have been the summer after I had Jenny…I would have been 40
It’s no use counting the candles ‘cos I think they are arranged in a smiley face! The grey skirt I’ve had for a few years…it’s good ‘cos I can either dress it up or down like the photo…very handy bit of clothing!
Well, you were a young-looking 40!
I think I’d been dieting before going back to school…that’s why the clothes look big! Flattery will get you everywhere…….
