Summer Fashion for Grandmas


Many older ladies have a good income to buy clothes with, but, dear manufacturers ,please do not regard  us as an  easy seam of silver to exploit. We want value for money and some consideration of our needs regarding styling .So I am going to look at some of the fashion garments around this summer in light of those needs.


Summer wardrobes need freshening up with some new items as older favourites tend to have a too well washed look.

 Always hard to find is something with a sleeve, not too short in length, a flattering colour and shape and no need for special underwear.

After a long search I found this pretty , easy to wear dress at Jigsaw




                                         


                                                     
                                                               

This maxi dress from Zara looks light, cool and pretty but will  hide those flabby arms and varicose veins we all to keep out of sight.
                                                           

When it gets really hot linen is wonderfully cool.The creasing just has to be regarded as part of the fabric's charm.
Marks and Spencers' dress is a lovely colour but those patch pockets on the bust and hips are not good for curvy ladies.

                                               


Jaeger have the nicest tobacco coloured linen dress in town but it is expensive, an investment piece.
