    That's really weird, I wonder what wrong with my blog? It's working fine for me here! I wondered if something was going on last night as I had a lot less traffic than usual for the time. Hhmmm. I'll keep an eye on it.

    I'm still going with my challenge, it's so much fun! Today's is:

    Ditzy print floral tea dress
    Black leggings
    Black polo neck
    Grey knitted cardigan
    Grey knee length socks
    Brown studded boots
    Brown plaited belt
    Gold bangle
    Black cocktail ring

    Happy Thursday! :)

    Piratefairy, I'm another fan of the dress - it's stunning.

    Well, we had snow again yesterday. After it being virtually clear, we've now got another couple of inches back again. Anyway, off today and not going anywhere today, but expecting glazier to repair broken window at some point so I'm not being the total slobabout I would have been otherwise.

    Outfit today therefore is:
    long sleeve black thermal tshirt (Blacks)
    oversized fine knit charcoal jumper (Wall via TK Maxx)
    cropped Manuka black yoga pants (TK Maxx)
    black fishnet tights (M&S? maybe) over
    fuchsia pink vintage Dior tights (about 20p, still in packet, charity shop)
    purple handwarmers (Tesco £4)
    old lilac short Ugg boots

    I've got a ton of things to do today, but I'm seriously lacking in motivation! Currently indulging in three digestives with Phildelphia and a banana.

    GG _ no idea why, but i can't get onto your blog any more, everytime i do it sayd operation failed and closes the browser :(

    It's been doing that to me too for the last couple of days. Just get a tantalising little glimpse of the day's outfit then the "Operation Failed" window opens!! Bah!
  • GG liking your blog a lot, I have done a similar thing with no jeans since Christmas and liking it a lot! Luckily I can wear jeans or generally what I like for work (I work in a museum) so pretty lucky. I got really fed up of wearing "work wear" ,trousers, shirt etc so branched out and now much prefer skirts/dresses etc.

    Thanks Lou! I love my jeans (I work in a casual place so no uniform required) but I found I was relying on them way too much and not really thinking about what I was putting on. For someone who's so interested in fashion and style, that's pretty poor! So pleased I've found this week such fun!

    Ha! I've been doing "no jeans since November", but for entirely different reasons:rolleyes:!!!!!! Drastic action needs to be taken!!

    EDIT TO ADD.. Sorry.............hello loulou and welcome to the thread!!

    Ooh, I would never have thought to layer fishnets and coloured tights together..! And what a bargain!

    Grammar girl your blog has been doing that to me since I first started posting on here about three days ago - good idea to get the man onto the case! :D
