That is the perfect ensemble now, so stylish and cool. All these stripes are looking very neat. I vote we all go as the groovy ladies to the next bloggy get together! They look so fab. I also love your Stevie Nicks jumpsuit and kimono style jacket outfit, really suits you. Big changes for Owen in September, bet he'll love it.

Sprogzilla was the same, she got a bit antsy towards the end but was sad not to be going to the same school as some of her friends. Thanks for the pics of Brian Jones, what a dresser (and a fabulous guitarist). The Stones were never the same without him. I love all your outfits. What a scoop getting trousers to match your stripy jacket. Love the jumpsuits/culottes. I bought a 70's sewing pattern that is very Halston as I love that look.

The silk cullotte dress is perfect for looking polished at the shop but still lets you do your work. I'd like to get my black jumpsuit and one of my Japanese Haori on and go for a cocktail with you in your slinky hippy outfit. The folks at the pub would think that we were rock stars!<br /><br />Can't believe how grown up Owen is looking in your recent posts.

For me it's more about what suits me and do I feel good in it. So I'm all over the shop as well with style.<br />Can't wear my jumpsuit just now as it takes to long to get off when I need a wee and with my dicky back this week it's not a good thing.
