Charity shop silk blouse, H&M jeans, Primark tee, Love Suzie necklace, Topshop pumps, car boot sale bag

My grandma has this exact blouse. It’s a floral silk number I picked up in a charity shop at the weekend for £2 – perfect for that granny chic look, and perfect for actual grannies, too! Everybody wins. The fab folks at Love Suzie sent me the adorably vintage necklace – it’s the perfect partner to my girly get up, don’t you think?

Today’s outfit is another case of size doesn’t matter – can you guess the official size of this blouse? Go on, have a guess! I’ll tell you the answer on Twitter tonight.

I have stopped looking at sizes many years ago. Clothes in my wardrobe range from 10 – 18 with no logic at all!

Who are you on Twitter? It’s a really pretty blouse, very flattering!

Omg I love this blouse on you, Emma Pillsbury eat your heart out! Granny chic is one of my all time favourites. The pattern is fantastic and such a lovely material by the looks of it. Really fab Jen, and the picnic bag is looking delightful as ever :)xx

Hi Jen! Love the blouse on you, so pretty with those covered buttons. The car booty bag is a beaut, too. Can you fit your lunchtime sandwiches in it?
Don’t understand Twitter but I’ll guess at a UK 6 and hope you’ll share the secret via a medium I can get my head around. xxx

I love granny chic, problem is my fella doesn’t- this wouldn’t normally stop me but the reason he doesn’t is beacause it reminds him of a nightmare old landlady we used to have, and how she used to dress.
She didn’t have anything quite this cute though, admittedly!
I reality, she was just ahead of her time and rockin’ it!

If only my grandma were so stylish! I love the blouse! And I’m guessing that the size is something outrageous for you… 14? 16?!
