    Vicki, thank you for the grey nail varnish suggestion. I am very very pleased with my homemade grey varnish today :)

    PF hopefully your mood will lift soon, it might be a case of getting rid of the thing that is bringing you down?

    GG, yes I have definately got rid of things I wished I hadn't! Some is more of a wishing it had fitted me/or looked better on me and sometimes I must of just had a mad moment and got rid! Am currently really hoping I haven't sold/lost/left behind on holiday my favourite summer dress :S

    Today I am wearing

    Flat grey suede boots, Primark
    Rasberry tights, Tesco
    Black draped strapless dress, TK Maxx
    Grey cardigan, H&M
    Long necklace, Matalan

    Hope you are all having a good day and looking forward to the weekend.

    Morning all!

    Just a quick question - can you wear jumpsuits without heels?

    I'm more of a converse/flip-flop kinda girl and the only heels I own are these -

    If it makes any difference, I'm 5ft6 1/2 and a size 10/12 (I have a shapely bum!)
  • Morning ladies!

    Argh all these boots! Lovely!

    Im in a blah mood today so have tried to dress to cheer myself up but thinking of going and changing into a pair of jeans and a hoody lol

    Wearing (atm):
    black cotton skirt with floral trim on hem with sequins and embroidery (Im no use at describing things!)
    Raspberry tights.
    black mock wrap short sleeve t shirt
    scoop neck pink short sleeve cardi
    beaded necklace with black and pink stones.
    small heart earrings with pink stone drops.

    usual boots etc etc when I go out as weather is still awful (longing to wear my little pumps more)

    will probably get the kids home from school later and change into my jammies (hahah rock and roll!).

    Anyway hope you all are well today xx

    ETA - is there anything you know you used to have, and then when you go to try and find it, can't find it anywhere so figure you must have sold it???

    I am forever losing things! I usually know if I’ve sold it or not though I must admit. At the moment I am trying top locate a green v neck jumper. I thought it was in the wash but nope it isn’t there, can’t find it anywhere – not in the wardrobe, drawers or anywhere else. Grrrrrr I really wanted to wear that this week too!

    Todays outfit consists of:

    Purple V neck jumper – New look
    Black trousers – Wallis
    Black Stiletto ankle boots – Faith
    Bracelet from Dorothy Perkins with stones in different colours (Green, purple, Turquoise and Cerise) which I brought in the sale – first time I’ve worn and it looks great with the jumper.

    Probably won’t be on much over the weekend as am off to London tomorrow. Shall be visiting my favourite shop in the whole world Vivien of Holloway already know exactly what I’m buying and have my cash ready. They have extended their sale by another week so who knows I may come home with a couple of extra things :p

    Happy Friday everyone :j

    PF - he's coming out of this as such a horrible character. Even if you're not getting any appreciation directly from him, we all know what a gem you are. And if you believe in karma then surely you're due something lovely :)

    GG - I've never had that big a wardrobe to be able to lose/sell/get rid of things. However with the weight loss I'm having to get rid of things that I do really love but there's just no point keeping them. I'm wondering if I could get them taken in etc but they're generally fairly cheap clothes anyway and it'll cost more than they're worth to get them altered :(

    Im just in jumper, jeans and boots today as I had to get ready and leave the house in literally 5 mins after totally oversleeping :o

    Shazza - enjoy your trip!

    The happy mood didn't last very long, trying to refrain from crying at my desk :'(
