Coat Weather!

 & #TuesdayTwirl

Is This Mutton shows off an addition to her winter coat collection, a pink coral coat from Boden bought on eBay

Dear friends. We've gone from 18 degrees to 7 in just a few days. It's finally coat weather! 

I've added a new colour to my coat collection: a pink coral wool coat from Boden which I bought for £37 on ebay.

Nothing to Wear!

                                       And #TuesdayTwirl 

Is This Mutton owns up to a problem that's far from unique. A wardrobe full of clothes, but nothing to wear.

Dear friends.  I'm sure we've all been there. A wardrobe full of clothes and an event to attend. But suddenly you can't find anything to wear.

This happened to me on my birthday. We were going out for dinner followed by the theatre. Originally I'd planned to wear purple. One of my husband's presents was a gorgeous purple bag. 

But I'd worn purple at a pop concert the week before and wasn't motivated to wear it again.

What I Wore to the Versace Retrospective

 And Tuesday Twirl 

Gail Hanlon from Is This Mutton in purple and yellow print trousers bought on ebay

Dear friends. I was not a Versace fan back in the day. I thought his designs were a bit gaudy. But after seeing the wonderful Retrospective in London,  I've changed my mind.

There are lots of bright colours,  yes (and many of them in my Spring colours), but also some sublime tailoring and quite subdued outfits you could wear to the office. Princess Diana was a fan, as was Elton John and of course Elizabeth Hurley.
