Especially in plus sizes, where manufacturers normally feel the need to plaster everything in ruffles, slogans and glitter, as though that will somehow distract from the fatness. (It doesn't, and I resent being made to look like a glitter ball.)<br /><br />I haven't used batiste, though I have been looking into it for backcombing.

I think that your outfit would look fabulous with brown. Your hairband is lovely. It looks really 60's and not very Axl, although G'n'R were pretty cool back in the day. You really suit your hair like that.

T shirts are fab and such easy items. I love your hairband. If it's made from a scarf (a headscarf, I assume) then the possibilities for future head bands are almost endless. Since I started wearing headscarves tied round my short barnet; I've picked up about dozen in a range of colours from the chazzas usually around the £1.00 mark.<br /Vronni's Style Meanderingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17122302881528071270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7211353948967221274.post-19353857336801191692017-04-18T16:55:37.565+01:002017-04-18T16:55:37.565+01:00You pick such nice colour combos - the green scarf...You pick such nice colour combos - the green scarf sets off your hair a treat.

I love the colour of that orange one and the shape and neckline are superb on you.<br />The scarf looks ace, proper Swinging Sixties. Do you use Batiste? (Other dry shampoos are available). Giving clean hair a quick blast with it should stop that annoying slipperiness.

If I could find ones in proportions like yours, I'd snap them up too. Orange is a great colour on you. <br /><br />In the absence of a headband in the right colour I've resorted to using a knee-sock tied at the ends.

The hai...Well done on your 100% second hand outfit! The hair scarf really suits you, especially this one, which offsets the colour of your hair. Love the orange T-shirt, which is a very nice colour. Glad you are able to make lemonade from your butcher closing down by getting to visit different chazzas. Ours haven't been very exciting lately ... xxxPolyester Princesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05602613792584925087noreply@blogger.com
