#Secondhand September

 Style Not Age challenge 

Gail Hanlon from Is This Mutton channelling 60s gamine vibes in preloved corduroy pinafore dress with touches of leopard in her Emilio Cavallini tights and clutch bag.

Dear friends. It was my turn to set this month's prompt for the Style Not Age Challenge, and I chose #SecondhandSeptember.  This has become a popular hashtag and topic on Instagram, with many people not buying anything new.

Van Gogh, School Reunion and More

Gail Hanlon from Is This Mutton on the Van Gogh exhibition at the National Gallery in London

Dear friends. Welcome to my review of September, a good month for socialising with friends old and new, and seeing the big ticket event of the year.  No, not Oasis but Van Gogh at the National Gallery.

Getting the Total Look

 And Wow on Wednesday

Is This Mutton's signature style is a tonal look with colourful footwear, hosiery and jewellery. She calls it The Total Look

Dear friends. If there's one thing I look forward to when the weather gets cooler, it's The Total Look.  This is when I achieve a tonal, or contrasting, look from head to toe, with everything co-ordinating. No black shoes or handbags for me when I could choose purple or rose gold!
