Re: Fashion's devotion to Black - do you wear it?
'Accessorize with scarves' - old ladies wearing scarves are as repugnant to me as white cardigans on Blackpool prom. Shawls and serapes draped over a coat are fine and chic.
If your neck ain't fit to be seen, wear a polo or turtle neck.
I try to achieve top to toe in one colour - it heightens the image.
I recall that in my 50s I was braver with colour. I had a bright orange trouser suit.
As eyebrows raised as I entered the local WMC, my response was 'I've just been tangoed'
