It's time that you were told. I think you're growing old

When I was in university, I remember going to the local mall (Most of all, Stone Road Mall) and shopping in the Marks and Spencer store. I would mostly buy cookies like ginger snaps and the oat and treacle biscuits. At some point, I'm guessing around 1992, I bought this white linen blouse and I've kept it for 20 years. I wash and iron it much more frequently than I wear it. In fact, today is the first time I've worn it for about 5 years. We don't have Marks and Spencer stores in Canada anymore which is a shame since those cookies were darn good.


Blouse: Mark's and Spencer
Skirt: Smoking Lily (last worn here)
Shoes: Bamboo via Winners (last worn here)

Both the skirt and the blouse are linen which is a good choice for today as it is another hot one.

I should probably wear this top more often because I received two complements on it while we were out for breakfast.

It was too bright to take my photo on our deck so we're in front of my neighbour's house, under their tree. 

I'm not wearing any make-up so I'm not thrilled with how I look but the outfit isn't bad.



Not sure why I chose the green shoes - maybe to give this a pop of colour.

This photo is an outtake. As you can see, although it's hot, we have a nice breeze.

I hope you're all having a good Sunday.
