    Loads of jobs to do today that means I have to be up ladders and things. Hence wearing Indigo cropped jeans (tesco £10) and a fat face petrol and khaki tunic with embroidery (free, friend) tan sandles when I go out and usual black bag.
    Off to a wedding tonight. Not decided what to wear yet but it won't be the French connection dress I bought because it's too big around the top (boo hoo!) so that'll go on ebay!
    It'll either be my boden dress, the monsoon dress or my matalan dress with either my white wedges or silver pumps.
    I'm having a rather large day today and realised that I must get my fat arris into gear and get weight shifting.

    Minerva, well done on your results!

    woohoo well done, out tonight are we?:beer:

    Dunno yet, will ring my best mate on my way home from work and see what she's up to. If not I suspect some kind of tea out with the family might be involved...

    And thank you everyone! :)

    Dilemma solved!
    I tried on the other French Connection dress (I ordered 2 the same) and it seems smaller. My bra back was too high. Soooooo, routed around and changed into one of my new bras and it is fine. Going to pop out and get some shimmery support tights in a tick and will wear that with either my Morgan suede jacket or a butterscotch pashmina (free with comfort a few years ago, got loads of the brown and butterscotch colours, very MSE!).
    Will wear my 3 strand necklace with pinks and pearls and my white wedges.
    Not decided on hair yet- up or down (chignon if up with little pink diamante hair screws in).

    Morning....it was fine here when I got dressed...but now it's raining.........Hmmmm, think I could look like a drowned rat later. :think:

    I did the drownded rat look - went to the tip with the trimmings from the tree.....it wasn't raining when I left home, was spitting when I got there and was bucketing down when I got to Sainsbugs! Then I decide that I was wet anyway so did a bit more in the garden in the rain....:p
