Spectacles with tortoise shell or leopard print patterns Post 537


You can buy animal print spectacle frames to match your favourite outfits or to co-ordinate with brown or black clothes or hair.

 Leopard or tortoiseshell spectacles? Whatever they are, they win lots of compliments. They have attractive curvy sides.

The owner says, 'I get my free sight test on the NHS from one place, take my prescription, and choose my glasses from another place.'

Tortoiseshell From Specsavers
Specsavers have tortoiseshell glasses, brand Ravello, to buy in store not on line. Straight sides.
They also offer a try it on virtually.  About ninety pounds. Prescription lenses. Scratch resistant surface. Case and cloth. Get tested in their premises.

Leopard Patter From Vooglam
Cheaper ones, leopard with distinctive circles and gaps between them, rather than tortoiseshell which to me looked brown with black splodges, about ten pounds or less (prices were jumping when I was online - if you sign up you get a reduction) from another company, Vooglam.
At about ten pounds a pair, you could afford them to go with one outfit, even if you had a second more neutral pair to go with more outfits.

Indigo Moon Brown & Green Jacket Paired with green Indigo Moon skirt outfit number 487

  Indigo Moon brown jacket paired with Indigo Moon green skirt.  Skirt. Photo taken and cropped by Angela Lansbury. Copyright. I bought these two items from the same label separately and paired them up. I found many Indigo Moon jackets and tops on ebay. Many from the UK, several from the USA.  Bold Bids For Several Skirts I had two Indigo Moon jackets and I wanted skirts to match. I saw three skirts, two red, one green. I hoped to win one of them. As the bidding for all ended the same day, I had no chance of waiting for the bidding on one to end before bidding on a second if I failed to secure the first. The green skirt arrived with two red skirts, same label. I had bid on all three which had low prices. I was pleasantly surprised, pleased to win all three. The price of all three together wasn't so bad. However, add in the postage on three items, the sum was no longer small. Pleasing Postage Refund I did not realise until all three arrived in the same packet that they wer...

Blue H & M Dress, dress of the day 393

Image
  Angela Lansbury wearing a blue background dress from H &M. Photo by Trevor Sharot. The Blue H & M Dress Blue background dress has a white pattern. Blues are hard to match. But I had a white blouse, so I wore this. On the internet and on Facebook you can see lots of videos of how to tie a scarf, but mine is simply hanging, which partly obscures the cleavage.  Cleavage cover I had a choice. To insert a dickey or false front, also called a removable or detachable collar. I have one or two which are plain white.  The alternative which saves hunting for a matching dickey without distracting collar colours and embrodiery, is simply to add a fastening. I decided that a snap or press stud fastener in small size is qhich to fasten and unlikely to pull apart (as opposed to hook and eye. I like velcro but it can scratch your skin, so the press stud was the right andwer. You have to get the two sides exactly measured up from the point of the V neck otherwide you end up with...

I read in the news today that the French have issued instructions on preparing a survival kit for householders.  Convenient Carry Bag Your house should have a bag you can carry, or sling in a car. Your handbag or tote bag or holdall should have a few essentials. When hiking I wear clothes with pockets and have a rucksack with have pockets water, food and sting relief, and insect repallent, and maps and phone numbers. I also put the hospital nubers in my phone. Survival Kit Everybody should have a survival kit by their door, as well as a first aid box in the bathroom and a burns kit in the kitchen. Also clothes! Japanese The Japanese are reputed to keep survival kit by the door. Why? In case of earthquakes. Travellers should have a first aid kit. In their suitcase or bag. And in cars. Plus spare clothes. For sitting on wet or dirty ground. Medical Help Many buildings have a defibrilator. Do you have a scarf which would act as an emergency sling? After a car accident, I had broken m...
