    Bit later than usual today - have been on an early which is unusual for me. Was dreading the bus journey home in the snow but it turned out to be fine - except when the whole bus looked at me like I was a nutter when I read something really good on the WAP on my phone :o - and squealed 'oh my god!' at the top of my voice :D

    Oh dearie me. :p

    Anyway today's outfit was:

    Purple and cream long striped v-neck jumper with faux buckle detail (Xmas pressie from Mum)
    Dark blue faded-wash jeans with diamante detail (Bon Marche but an Xmas pressie from Mum a few years back)
    Green zip-up hoodie with diamante detail (Evans, Xmas pressie from Mum again - my mum doesnt buy ALL my clothes, promise :o however she does have exceptional taste and knows exactly what I like :D)
    Cream socks with snowflake detail in silver (Primark Loughborough, £1.50 for 2 pairs - I bought these myself :D)
    White and baby blue Nikes (present from Mum from America)
    Black swing coat with hood, multicoloured scarf, grey knitted beanie and grey gloves (Evans, Bon Marche, BHS and Matalan - guess who bought me them :rotfl:)

    No jewellery for work as usual but today's perfume was Emporio Armani Diamonds.

    Hope everyone's safe and has had a good day xx

    What department do you work in?

    I've never worn perfume to work because I know if I feel ill I hate smelling perfume. I think it was banned where I trained too. I wear it now though because it won't upset my client base.

    Not dressed yet - having a fat day so can't decide:o

    Caroline, I get days like those...I tend to stay in my PJs all day when it happens...not so good if you have to work though or go out I guess

    sibles - I like doing that to my hair but it only lasts about half a day before it's gone back to being not-quite-straight again, grr!

    GG - I am mightily impressed by your challenge! How on earth aren't you freezing to death??

    I am having a completely comfy day today and can't be bothered even looking a bit nice :o So it's jeans, black vest, long grey fitted hoody, black pashmina. No jewellery and hair up in a bun.

    Alex I'm having a day like that too, not going anywhere so dont see the point!

    Wearing:
    Grey long sleeve top: A-wear
    Faded black wolf print tee: New Look
    Baggy straight leg jeans: Silence and Noise via Urban Outfitters
    Socks

    and if I get really fed up with staying inside I'll stick on my adidas stan smiths and go for a walk,
    I'd forgotten I even owned them, thats how little I wear trainers, but they will make a change from wellies and I have a feeling I'll get cabin fever before too long today.

    I'm at work though, oh dear! Ah well, it's fairly relaxed here and I don't have any meetings today and don't need to see anyone.
