    Hi folks, a bit late, but better late than never. Thanks for the welcome back, I've missed my daily fashion fix and chat.

    I have to confess I do watch a load of rubbishy television programmes, but I do work at a tv station so that's my excuse!

    Princessamy, I'd second goanmad's suggestion - very rock chick. Wish I could get away with it but unfortunately I'm more rock hen than chick. Sparkly pants and a crop top just makes me think of Bob Fosse and "jazz hands"!

    Grammargirl, hope you enjoy your girlie night out!

    Goanmad, fab coat, love it.

    Todays outfit:
    long black asymetric hem tshirt
    black leggings
    tan Frye campus boots (cheap in TK Maxx over the summer)
    grey leopard fake fur coat

    Well, time for me to pack up and go home now - I might as well have brought a sleeping bag to work as I'm back in tomorrow morning. Have a good weekend folks.

    Do normal footless tights have the ''shorts'' thing at the top?[/QUOTE]

    I think the 'shorts thing' part of the tights used to be rather terrifyingly referred to as " reinforced pantie".

    Poor you, it's awful weather here too and it's put me in a really bad mood! I'm on the sofa snuggled under a blanket now. Have just bought some fab black leather brogues on eBay, BN for £7 inc postage! So pleased.

    I've just updated my blog with today's:

    Floral top
    Skinny jeans
    Purple cardigan
    Brown belt
    Brown brogues
    Owl face ring

    Hope the rest of you are feeling a little better than me and Daisy! :)

    Oh Daisybella get well soon!
    Glad you're back with us, judgejaq. I'm liking the "rock hen" look. I have the attention span of a gnat when it comes to TV - it has to be rivetting (Spooks, FlashForward are my current faves) or subtitled to prevent me from wandering off.

    It's very miserable here, torrential rain and gloom. I'm thinking my TopShop patent peep toe boots aren't a great option for a mile long walk into town later. No idea what to wear tonight - leather trench coat, bikini, wellies?

    Today's outfit (for the next 10 minutes):

    Customised rock tee (Jumble sale 20p)
    Two pairs of black leggings (One pair are too big, the other pair have gone thin 2pairs = perfect)
    Brown cowboy boots (Car boot 50p)
    Urban Outfitters studded scarf/necklace (Car boot 50p)
    Indian silver tribal bangles and rings
    Silver filigree disc earrings (H&M via boot sale 50p)

    Have a good night all!

    All three sound fabulous!

    Also, just read your comment on my blog - Interview with the Vampire is one of my all time favourite films. I love vampire stories - the Twilight books are pretty good (although slight Mormon undertones, if you believe the rumours) but True Blood is a much better, more adult tale. The TV series is amazing, I LOVE Sookie Stackhouse! :)

    Don't forget Gary Oldman in "Bram Stoker's Dracula". The thought of him rasping "I have travelled oceans" makes me go weak at the knees!

    I'm still thinking waterproof outfits for later, don't encourage me, girls! xx
  • I loved True Blood! Twilight does nothing for me at all, it's too teenager for me.

    I worked last night so was in uniform, came home and put on my Tesco pjs.
    Teal coloured vest with teal and white floral trousers.

    Going to work tonight again so will be uniform of turquoise polo shirt, black trousers and navy fleece (OMG - navy and black together!!!!)
