My big sister, a keen fashion historian and seamstress, always wanted me to keep a daily fashion diary that would serve as a record for future generations of everyday dress in our lifetime.

Sadly, my sister died in 2011, before our project came to fruition. This blog is for her; I'm just sorry that I didn't start it sooner. I hope she would approve.

  1. Date: Monday 30th July 2012 Place: Bakewell, The Peak District

    After breakfast, we took a stroll through Bakewell’s beautiful gardens. Between showers, the weather was lovely; but when it rained, it rained hard! I wore this Oasis pleated dress again; it’s proving to be rather versatile. Today, I paired it with a bright pink cardigan from Uniqlo and an unusual pink and tan belt that I picked up in Kuala Lumpur (dahhling!) - which do you like best, this version or last week’s, with the yellow cardigan?
