For winter's rains and ruins are over,
And all the season of snows and sins;
The days dividing lover and lover,
The light that loses, the night that wins;
And time remembered is grief forgotten,
And frosts are slain and flowers begotten,
And in green underwood and cover
Blossom by blossom the spring begins.

-Algernon Charles Swinburne, Atalanta in Calydon (1865)

Thrusting aside the mantle of the autumn of her years, she dons her spring raiment in youthful joy, giddy giggles ringing in the clean fresh air.



Delicate tone-on-tone embroidery and elegant cutwork grace the princess-seamed jackets of these lovely spring skirt suits for mature ladies.



Blossoming in a sweet selection of six spring colors, she has her choice amongst carnation, mint, lilac, daffodil, pale fawn, and robins egg blue.



Having had a bit more time to play my Sims lately, most especially my legacy families, it began to gnaw at me again how deplorable the apparel selections are for our mature ladies. I would go so far as to label many of them even derisive of those in the life stage that should more rightly be cherished.
