SHOUT OUT TO M&S!

Shout out to M&S! While their online shopping is temporarily on hold due to the cyber attack back in April, their local stores are still bursting with fabulous fashion finds!

I, Annabel, had a lovely outing with my dear friend Charlie (aka Back Packing Granny)! (Grace sadly couldn’t be with us as she is very busy with the last week of an art foundation course).

Anyway Charlie and I explored the latest styles and added some fresh separates to our wardrobes. It’s always better to shop with a friend who gives honest feedback!


We spotted a must-have denim skirt just as we were leaving – definitely planning another trip soon! A huge thank you to the amazing team at Marks and Spencer in Camberley (The Meadows) for their incredible service! 🙌💚

P.S. this is not a paid promotion
PPS the navy jumper and slip that Charlie is wearing with the floral skirt is her own as is her white skirt. And my cream jeans are last year from M&S. my straw bag is from Henriella Spencer from many seasons ago.

    Summer is here (at M&S at least!)

    The warmer (and unfortunately, wetter) weather has arrived and so I suppose we can say that Summer is finally here. However, forecasters are predicting heatwaves in July and August, so Annabel and I were keen to meet up at our favourite one stop store to give our summer wardrobes a refresh and prepare for the sun. Here are some of our top picks that, at the time of writing, are available in store and/or online and are all very reasonably priced…

    • Linen Rich Printed V-Neck Midaxi Dress £45 (available short, regular and long lengths and in black/white colourway)
    • Linen Rich Printed V-Neck Tunic in Bright Sage (also available in same lovely pattern as the dress Grace is wearing) £39.50 in short, regular and long lengths. Worn with Suede Flat Mules £39.50 and Straw Tote Bag £45
    • Pure Cotton Striped Shirt £35 worn with Lyocell Blend High Waisted Wide Leg Jeans £35 (available in three other colours and short, regular and long lengths)
    • Pure Cotton Embroidered V-Neck Beach Dress £39 (also available in black)

    In addition to our personal choices for older women that we’ve featured in the photographs above, there were stylish shorts of varying lengths, plenty of sleeveless tops and dresses, some great lightweight jackets, hats, jewellery, sophisticated swimwear and super cool sunglasses.

    In fact there was so much to choose from in store (not forgetting M&S’s delicious coffee and the delights of the Food Hall), but you’ll also find even more brands and styles online – either way, M&S definitely has us older women covered. Why not have a look?
