    It's grim weather isn't it? :(

    I've gone for autumn warmth today:

    Brown cords - Dotty P's
    Brown ankle boots - M&S (the ones that the lovely Jaq posted the link for. They're fab :D )
    Cream long vest top - Dotty P's
    Forest green chunky knit cardi with a shawl type neckline - Evans

    I've been on a huge spending spree over the past few days, although most of it was presents and not stuff for me. I blame my friend, I went to stay with her in Bath and we shopped more in two days than I've done all year! I did treat myself to some absolutely divine heeled black and cream brogues from New Look though - only £10 :D

    Alex- I live fairly near bath and whenever I go (thankfully not often, although its cheaper for me to go there, than to get the bus in to Bristol) I spend SO MUCH. Especially in the vintage shops :o

    I've finally dried out
    but have to venture up to Tesco in a little while for the weekly food shop
    (I get dragged every week as I hold the magic discount card ;))

    G'ah...I've been in to Bath too...who knows, we might have passed each other..should have paid more attentipn to daily outfits...:rotfl::rotfl:

    I'm SO tired today, the weather is making me exhausted and fighting through the mud and rain is so miserable. :(

    Still.....at least it makes christmas seem like a glowing window in the dark when you're lost.


    Today..green roll neck jeans, black flats.

    Evening, All!

    A busy day for me today, mega sales on eBay meant loads of wrapping, I've squeezed 2 hours of yoga between shortening 3 pairs of trousers for my brother and listing 45 items on eBay. I look a total fright and I'm off for a nice hot shower and hair wash shortly.

    Today's outfit:
    Refashioned vintage '87 Alice Cooper tour teeshirt (Car boot 50p)
    Purple hareems (Ex-H&M via car boot 20p)
    Silver earrings with trails of coral and turquoise gemstones (India)
    Silver tribal bangles and rings (India)
    Tibetan wool socks (India)
    Hair in big and messy side bun

    Enjoy your evening, gang!

    Hola chicas! Is it still raining where you are? It's awful here! I really feel for those people in Cumbria. About 7 years ago we had terrible floods in Yorkshire. I remember my mum plugging up the front door with sandbags!

    Today's outfit was function over fashion:

    Skinny jeans
    Black polo neck
    Floral vest
    Black suede ankle boots
    Black cocktail ring
    Long pink and floral beaded necklace

    I've just updated my blog. Go see! :)

    Still raining here,
    and starting to get minor floods in some places,
    but nothing like up in Cumbria,
    those poor people :(

    The rain has held off this morning, though its grey and last nights rain is still sitting ontop of the ground.

    Going out tonight, casual though.

    Proper clothes will be the purple crochet dress, black tights, black flats (walking a lot). Not sure which handbag yet, probably small beige clutch. jewellery I think with be bright and fun. :)

    Rain has stopped here, too, for now. I need to pop out to the chemist at some point, which means the second I leave the house the heavens will open ;)

    currently still in PJs as I have no idea what I want to wear!
  • Morning all!

    Spitting rain here (Lancashire), but thankfully not too bad at the moment. I feel terrible for those people up in Cumbria though, it is just horrific there.

    Work again for me today, and today's outfit is:

    - Purple scoop neck long sleeve top (Dorothy Perkins)
    - Black wrap style pencil skirt (Dorothy Perkins)
    - Black tights (M&S)
    - Black Mary Janes with chunky heels (M&S)
    - Black military style flared jacket (New Look) to come into work
    - Multicoloured stripey scarf, beanie hat and mittens (Accessorize) to come into work
    - Brown leather handbag (21st birthday present from parents)
    - Usual jewellery (see yesterday)

    Hair is straightened then messed up with spray wax, perfume is Body Shop Aqua Lily and nail polish is Nails Inc Victoria.

    In work until around half five, then doing some more interview prep and packing to go to London tomorrow night.

    Have a good Tuesday everyone!
