LETS HAVE ORANGE !,

Hello there , hope you had a good weekend.
I don't know about you but i will admit i'm a bit scared of bright colours, it is out of. my safety zone.
I am trying to take the bull by the horns ! so to speak and head into the rainbow of colours, like many of you bloggers out there.
I very guilty of heading for the black and whites in my wardrobe, they call me into the safety of there  colour combination !.
This outfit i chose is the bright dress i got on my birthday and i have worn in a previous post, i need cheering up the weather was dull , and my fourteen year old daughter India, had told me some sad news about a friend of hers.
Her friend had tried to commit suicide, i find it so sad to hear about young girl so desperate with life she feels thats her only way.
I don't know about you , but it's bad enough being a teenager, with changing bodies, raging hormones, without all the pressures these young  girls have with body images in the media and magazines  , i'm quite glad to be in  my fifties.
So let there be orange ! and adding black tights , black flat shoes, black and tan bag, orange pashmina all old , and a new patterned biker jacket , from Fashion World , my thoughts are with the young girl and her family .
thank you for your visits and comments , with  Best wishes Les .
