Dress Of The Day with Angela

Photo by Angela Lansbury. Copyright.  I was on my way out of a World Speech Day meeting in Singapore at Peninsula Plaza on North Bridge Road  a big building on a corner near the City Hall MRT underground railway station and within sight of a major art museum. What caught my attention was a rummage trolley with the alluring sign, only 5 dollars. Singapore dollars. The price of a cup of coffee.I saw a long red swirly pattern skirt and a see through  black net wrap skirt, but wasn't sure i wanted either. the shop looked extensive, so I wondered what else they had at reasonable prices.

Another scarf from Shelley Siu, who had a stand at the Tanglin Club Christmas Fair. She was selling scarves from the company she founded, The Singapore Shawl company. This scarf is neatly kept level at the front by a linking Chinese knot. You can buy a Chinese knot set. You might need a few for all the way down the front of a jacket, like buttons, perhaps four or six, depending on the size. but to fix a scarf, one pair is sufficient. The neckline is edged by a silky fabric patterned with small hearts. The scarf comes with a matching mask in the heart pattern fabric.  I bought this scarf not only because it was red but because of the heart pattern. Everybody has their favourite patterns. I like hearts. (I also like suns and moons, sea scapes, fish, flowers, especially orchids and fuchias and roses).  I wore the mask as a headband but you cannot see it.
