A turn of two Centuries

 

I was co-opted into assisting on the MS (Multiple Sclerosis) Tombola stand at the annual pre-Christmas Victorian Market.

Now, how could I se the tombola ticket numbers? And I was still recovering from my broken foot which concerned me.

But even more of a concern, with only a week’s notice, how on Earth was I going to find a suitable outfit?

I luckily found an outfit at the back of my wardrobe. It was something I’d bought at the turn of this century for an event I never went to and so I never worn it. Err… just about still fitting after some 20 years. With a slight heel, my ankle boots actually helped my foot and walking ability. All topped off with a tight bun but especially the antique cameo brooch completed the effect.

At the event, by the time I was due to take my turn, the tombola raffle tickets were being removed, so my poor eyesight was not a problem.

So there we have it. A this century outfit befitting the last century look.

 

Happy New Year

PS My New Year's resolution is to beable to fit into it for the next Victorian market.
