They likely know how Beloved they are by you and your Husband. I have nothing Formal anymore I could wear to anything and haven't for Years. Good Luck... and the Clothing Hire Outlets are a good bet for something temporary and fancy.Bohemianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03743017084098726581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-919830837927228571.post-50639629516293612002022-01-06T14:24:48.861-05:002022-01-06T14:24:48.861-05:00Good luck, hon.

Blazers are gabardine.<br /><br />I digress... Melanie's suggestion of "thrift stores" (or as they are over here, charity shops or vintage shops) is a good one, but being tall with long arms myself I often find shopping in such places very hit-and-miss.<br /><br />Do you have clothing hire outlets over there? Or has Covid put paid to such things?

I feel I'm always apologize for not being able to keep up with myself.<br /><br />At any rate, not knowing where in the world you are, how do you feel about consignment or thrift stores? Might be able to find a nice jacket for the husband there. Some of my best outfits have come from the thrifts store with no one the wiser. People die, they get to big or too small for some of their nice outfits. It could be a number of reasons nice things end up there, especially if you can get a thrift store close to a posh neighborhood.<br /><br />I hope everything works out to whichever resolution you most desire. Happy New Year!ProximaBluehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16905210742039040093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-919830837927228571.post-28482675512394637632022-01-05T17:47:41.907-05:002022-01-05T17:47:41.907-05:00I tend to agree with you dear Cookie.

As much as I miss travel, all the dramas and fighting it comes with at the airports and in the air, isn't worth it.<br /><br />And I'm surprised with your "cookie Monster" the pants weren't the problem? Maybe I should come by and do an inseam measurement just to be sure....Mistress Maddiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02098940220513091207noreply@blogger.com
