  • I'm stressing out - just realised I've left my desk heater on at work! ARGH!! Hopefully one of the cleaners noticed and turned it off.

    Today I was wearing:
    Denim shirt
    Floral ditsy print dress
    Black cotton tights
    Long sleeved mustard tee
    Brown brogues
    Brown leather plaited belt
    Black cocktail ring

    I'm glad Monday is over!

    GrammarGirl- I'm forever leaving things on, I hope someone turned it off!

    Bloomin hell,
    I am not happy having been awake since 3am shivering.
    Right now I look ridiculous!

    Thermal longsleeve top
    Thick hooded leopard print dressing gown with hood
    Leopard print slippers
    Fleece Blanket

    Off to work in the CS in a while

    Black skinnies (I'll change them tomorrow I promise, I'm just a bit in love with them. I usually hate jeans but they fit so well!)
    black tunic length t-shirt with grey front print
    blue and black stripy cardi
    black suede moccasin ankle boots
    and a fake fur coat when I go out because the car's in for an MOT so I'm walking today and it's FREEZING!

    Morning all :D

    Im up and about early this morning - had to go to bank. Back to work again - but its December 1st tomorrow and we'll be putting up the ward Xmas decorations - yay!! Its also very cold here - it feels really wintery but the sun is gorgeous!!!

    Anyway, today's outfit is:

    Blue v-necked jumper - £10, Evans
    Black cotton bootcut suit trousers - (same as yesterday, I felt lazy today!!!)
    Brown socks with pale pink spots and a pink bow (£1.50 for 2 pairs, Primark)
    and my trusty white and baby blue Nikes.

    I had a jacket on earlier as well (shock horror!) which I will also be wearing to work - its a navy zip-up hoodie with silver writing on it and a furry-lined hood (Matalan sale last year) my work bag is a black quilted one that Mum brought me back from Kenya, and my perfume today is 'Laugh with me LeeLee' from the Crescent Row Collection by BeneFit.

    Have a good day everyone! xx

    What's that like Mrs_Ryan? I'm thinking of asking for it for Christmas (me with my perfume junkie ways...)

    I'm in work again today, and today's outfit (as a means of fighting the cold!) is:

    - Cream short sleeve wrap dress with blue trim and swirly pattern of blue and orange flowers (Joe Browns)
    - White long sleeved scoop neck top (Dotty P's) under dress
    - Black tights (M&S)
    - Brown flat mid calf boots (Rocket Dog) - they're sheepskin lined and sooo warm!
    - Black military style flared jacket (New Look) to come into work
    - Multicoloured stripey scarf, beanie hat and mittens (Accoessorize) to come into work
    - Brown leather handbag (21st birthday present from parents)
    - Usual jewellery (birthday/Christmas/graduation presents from parents and boyfriend)

    Hair is straightened then messed up with spray wax, nail polish is a cheapo Boots clear one and perfume is Body Shop Aqua Lily.

    Also, has anyone seen any nice gold or cream wraps or shrugs anywhere? I'm going to an army ball a week on Saturday and was thinking of wearing my bridesmaid's dress from my sister's wedding last year (chocolate brown prom dress type thing), but am thinking that the brown feathery shrug I got to go with it originally makes it look too 'weddingy', if you get my drift. I've seen a niceish gold wrap on the Next website and an OKish gold shrug on the Dotty P's website, but was wondering if there was anything else out there...

    Thanks in advance and happy Tuesday everyone!

    I had to de-ice the car this morning - it must be officially winter!

    Boring old outfit today:

    Black ankle boots
    Jeans
    White vest top
    Navy blue thin cable knit jumper
    Grey knit fingerless gloves

    I've picked the shoes for my Christmas list, woop! I have no idea which pair I'll get but I'll be more than happy with any of these:

    And in other Christmassy related news it was the first day of my advent calendar today and I got a brilliant wee pair of silver reindeer earrings with tiny red noses :D

    Go to the supermarket on the way home tonight Daisy, they'll all be on the cheap! *used to do this all the time as a student*

    I got a fairy in my Advent calendar today - my mum still buys me and my sisters an Advent calendar but it's always a traditional one (ie no chocolate). In a sad way I can remember when we had a class chocolate Advent calendar as a kid and getting really excited when it was my turn for a sweet!

    I can't have chocolate so I've always had a handmade one - it's usually sweeties but as I'm dieting this year it's fun little bits and bobs instead :D

    God I love Christmas.
