When we were in South Africa, my bonus mother gave me some gorgeous clothes that belonged to her mother – a black handbag, two dresses (this one and a glorious turquoise and white striped bouclé one), a pink jacket, and four shirts (pink, yellow, white and lavender).
This is one of my favourites. It is not a colour or style I would ever have thought would suit me, but I think it does. I wore it last week to my father-in-law’s 80th birthday dinner at our apartment.
I am very sentimental so almost everything I wear has a story and means a great deal to me.
That dress looks good on you, thanks for sharing your story.
