...well, when you get to fifty you feel the cold!

I've been on shopping expedition for first time in months and was quite chuffed with result. As a buxom broad clothes shopping can be a challenge. To my delight I found two dresses that actually fitted me and had a shape. I am big, but I have a waist, and getting clothes that are my shape is unusual. I also bought a nice enough skirt and nice enough pair of trousers - so quite good all round. I then saw this long line caridigan with deep v neckline- again something with a shape as buttons draw it in at the waist. I thought worn with trousers with nothing under the cardi but a push-up bra it would be rather interesting and somewhat less respectable than at first glance.

I was expecting my Cariad for a visit and it's a while since I dressed up for a date, so thought it would be fun. While contemplating my options I decided on a red basque, black knickers and fishnets with wicked stilettos. And as I wondered what to wear on top I thought of the new cardi - A sort of negligee for the over-fifties!

my Cariad was very impressed with my cardi, but it proved poor protection against the cane.
