Houston we have a problem

We promised to post more often but we are having some technical difficulties (are there any other kind?).

I Am The New Scottish Gentry

Sandy: speaking of ties, here's - yet another - new one.

Sandy: You can tell which one of us it is by now, can't you?

Sandy: I've resisted the temptation to use song lyrics in my headlines like some do (which, if I'm honest, I find somehow annoying) but now I am the new Scottish gentry.

If you know what song that is from comment and I will applaude you! I wish I had some kind of a prize to give but I don't.

Wendy: If you did they would just google it...

Sandy: And this post would suddenly have 400 readers when we usually have ten.

Black Betty

Sandy Boop!

Sandy: Here's a dapper party outfit. I was torn between two choices for neck-wear. I wore the tie.

Wendy: I liked the other neck-thingy better. (What is it?)

Sandy: You would, it's more feminine. (A scarf with a belt buckle.)

Wendy: You haven't worn ties so often lately.

Sandy: Actually they are making a comeback in my wardrobe. I was obsessed with ties a couple years ago but then I guess I grew a bit sick of them, really. But now I'm finding that I'm drawn to them again.

Wendy: She has more ties than any guy I know.

Sandy: Around two dozen. But I've probably spent less money on them each between 50 cents and 2 euros (second hand). And as it happens, I have a picture of few of my favorites.

Wendy: Such luck!

A fraction of her stock

Hello Ethel

Sandy: Twin outfits! I watched a documentay on the Kennedy family and saw something familiar. Ethel Kennedy is wearing something resembling my outfit here.

I was also gifted with a Hello Kitty doll wearing something similar.

Rain Dance

Sandy: So far, this winter has been rainy rather than snowy thus stylish rain-clothes are in order. It's difficult to find a good but affordable raincoat for an adult anywhere. So I bought this second hand children's rain cloak. I think its meant for children because the holes for hands are so high but thats ok. Infact, they are great because today I bought a belt (also second hand, as if you didn't already guess it) that goes trough the holes nicely and hopefully makes the cloak look less like a sack of potatoes and more like a piece of clothing.

Resolutions

Sandy: We made a New Years resolution to post more frequently. We failed to post our winter holiday outfits at the proper time. Here are the outfits but without the Christmas stuff because I'm sure you're sick of anything christmas-related immediately after New Years Eve.

Sandy

Sandy: I bought this dress at a drift store for ONE euro. Can you believe it? The length is a little weird. Full length dresses are usually not my thing - this is the only one I have. I thought about shortening the hem but I'm just not sure. And this way it's perfect for cold weather.
