Tartan Daft

It felt like a Scottish winter’s day, so I wore my tartan poncho which I bought in 1994 in Scotland (in Jenners, the oldest department store in Scotland). We lived there in 1993-1994. You might say I was tartan-daft because I went a little crazy buying everything in tartan; bed sheets, tartan lamp shades, tartan table cloth, tartan Doc Martens, tartan purse and tartan tights!

My poncho is almost 20 years old but I love it just as much as the day I bought it. I only wear it two or three times a year so it still looks like the day I bought it. Tartan is timeless and I bought these tartan Ralph Lauren rain boots online in November while in Seattle, but they didn’t arrive till after I left, so my daughter, Jean, sent them recently and this is my first time wearing them today.

Okay, so it’s a little too much tartan, but I wear what I like!

She let me wear hers while I was in Seattle and I’m so glad to have my own pair now!

Thanks so much for the package and for sending all the vegan info, recipes and book, Jean!

I’m happy to Share-in-Style with other ladies who wear tartan and plaid.
