I have gotten into the habit of dropping into the local upscale resale shop in town called "Bree's" They support the breast cancer fund and hold the occasional fashion shows to benefit homeless women who need a new business suit.
This week I went to the shop in Bandon, nice, gorgeous shoes but if I DID purchase those green velvety leaf cut out shoes for eight dollars, the soles are barely scuffed, WHAT in the world would I wear them with I ax youse?
So looking a little further, I found this blouse by ..... Versace, made in Italy retailed for between 50 and 100 dollar new. Again eight dollars. I tried it on, it fits mostly, the sleeves are a little long. I thought they didn't make fashion in my size, I love Italy! The pants are gray 100% silk, I purchased them in the Coquille Bree's on sale for $2.50. !!!! They fit!!!
I also purchased this rather colorful blouse in Bandon, it has a matching skirt that I must shorten by about a foot, otherwise if I wear it I will have to call this outfit my "Parade Float" dress, because I WILL look like a parade float!! I'm thinking I will wear it with black pants at first until the retina burn fades a bit and people around me take off their sun glasses.

Time for your cruise, you have all the clothes.
Y'know the idea of being trapped on a ship with no way to leave unless by jumping, gives me the heebie jeebies. Of course there are the incredibly tight casino's, the buffets and the extremely expensive bottles of water.....R
And let's not forget that nasty little virus on board that springs up now and then.
Quite nice! You will look stunning
