I was thinking blonde too, but the gray looks really excellent.

I think the curls really suit you, but was wondering if you had also ever thought of having the classic bob shape? I wonder how that would look... I can imagine it looking really nice, if the length was just below your ears. Maybe in an auburny colour. More for variety than anything else, because I think the gray looks lovely. It's never occured to me to go gray but its making me consider it

Paul,
A punch of jewelry is all you need for that outfit, I think. A great and kinda large brooch on your collar and maybe a chunky bracelet?

P.S. I like the grey and the curls! I'm letting my grey hair come in, and I notice a lot of women are tossing the dye these days. Grey IS a great color when it's cut and styled right, isn't it? It's not usually the grey that screams "old hag," it's the cut and the style. And, darling, you got it going ON with the style! :eusa_clap

Grey I do think is wrongly associated to much these day with age and I see it as a challenge to see if I could pull off what is preserved as a older look combining it with slightly younger fashion which are more true to my real age.

I have to say been use to a brown or a slightly lighter shade for 10 years or so then going grey over night is a shock to the system apart from not knowing if it could work for me it's a shot in the dark really.
I really appreciate the comments I received here from you all .

I want to introduce you all to " Pauline " and her new wardrobe
I been working hard over the couple of weeks putting together some new outfits and trying to accessorizing them.
I hope you can see a improvement and in my opinion maybe not perfect but the closest that I have I got to looking feminine so far.

hehe, I really like that brown suit three in on the third row... the smoking makes you look like a 1960s barmaid in coronation street!

Paul (or do you prefer Pauline?)I think your best outfit is the tan skirt and flowered top, 2nd row,in the center. The top is very flattering to the figure and youthful without looking too young. BTW, I love your bag!

It comes down to what people are comfortable using, I do take it as a complement if people do use "Pauline", calling me Pauline I think signify they can see me more for the style or fashions I wear, putting the gender I was born with into second place.

This is what makes fashions so exciting and interesting in my opinion how ladies have just slightly different opinions.I like all the outfit equally well for different reasons.

Hi Pauline,

I like the black suit in the top row the best and the coat with the fur collar to adorable! IMO, your legs are so wonderful that it's a shame to cover them up with pants or the long skirt in the last row. On the whole, it's a terrific wardrobe! Someone mentioned brooches, and I agree. A couple would a charming addition to your wardrobe.
