As for scarves, I see a lot of people, including me, who just put a scarf folded in half lengthwise around their neck and pull the ends through the loop of the folded side. I find if I wear my scarf like I did in the picture, which was done so my necklace wasn't hidden, the ends of the scarf blow over my shoulder and the scarf can fall off.

While I love, love to shop and spend money, much of the other parts of the post are familiar. I have decided upon a style though: vintage (1940s/1950s, Edwardian). As a not employed away from the home person my income is . . . well let's just say I'm so broke I can't even pay attention. I look for bargains and "alternative" fabric sources; i.e., thrifted vintage bed sheets.<br /><br />Yes, you did very well in your selection of the outfit above and for stepping out of your comfort zone.<br /><br />Cheers,<br /><br />Lyric<br />http://www.sewlyricallyvintage.wordpress.comLyrichttp://www.sewlyricallyvintage.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6494052.post-32960273603519084502014-08-29T09:43:35.493+02:002014-08-29T09:43:35.493+02:00Wow--there is so much of your post that I could ha...Wow--there is so much of your post that I could have written.

I swear I have said those exact same phrases regarding shopping...especially the one about feeling like I should be spending that time sewing. :-) So I'm trying to learn to wear scarves; amazing how it perks up an outfit. At least on other people; somehow I never think I pull off a scarf nearly as well as the folks who inspire me to try. Yours looks very nice :-)Lisa Lareehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11516986664460840579noreply@blogger.com
