Afternoon!

Been out and about this morning. I know I said no jeans and t shirts this week but I fancied it! So black skinnies with biker boots, black cardi (I have loads of these so if I lost one I probably wouldn't notice) cobalt blue vest, black printed slashed t shirt, yassar arafat scarf and 4 long necklaces.

@ DB - can't wait to see your hair!
@ FS - bummer about the heating, our boiler broke before Christmas, had heating but no hot water.
@LF - sorry about the shoes, I'd be gutted
@PF - wisest choice. My ex hubby was a smooth talking chap, everyone thought he was great, I saw through him too late but earlier than everyone else, thus making me the baddie for keeping a dignified silence! Everyone else only cottoned on when he left his last girlfriend with a newborn to run off with his secretary.

Have a great day everyone.

Afternoon everyone!

Well I've been told this is the place i should be so . . . .TA DA!!!!

No idea WHAT im supposed to do here so . . Hi lol

A few of you may know - im a complete fashion faux par - Jeans, t shirt, trainers - sorted lol

Ive got a session booked at john lweis for a personal advisor - I own ONE dress! (not including my wedding dress lol) ZERO skirts and some VERY questionable "fashion" tops lol

The stench of my fashion is this:

Today:

Trainers (no socks as they are open top jobbers lol)
Jeans (pha)
Black Tank top
BIG red cardi (i like it - it says size 10 on the label lol)
Hair down (straightened and cut to shape (for once) - not much make up
2 rings, some bracelets, a necklace and a pair of earrings)

And no - I didnt put my glasses on when i looked in the mirror this morning as i dragged my 2 yr DD to nursery

OH dear oh dear!

(the REALLY odd thing is i do actually have a decent sized collection of shoes but prefer my trainers lol)

P.S - whats IC???? seen it on a few posts above??

PPS - for those i was talking to about the OH and flat shoes - these are my wedding day shoes http://www.faith.co.uk/white-aroseyb-bridal-shoe-prod535101/ lol TOLD YOU!

Mine does that too. It's those pesky shoe fairies - they seem to keep making drop offs at my house when hubby is alseep

For once I was actually glad to come to work today - at least it's warm here :rotfl:

Try not to get too worried about boiler before you know. FWIW my parents boiler was put in sometime either 1969/1971and is going strong, just needs some TLC from repair men and a service every now and then.

Welcome Mommyme, My DS is 2 as well. I wore pretty much what you described until around 6 months ago when I posted a really similar thread to you!
DB - hope your haircut goes well.
PF - How are things today? Hope you are feeling OK
Goan - get well soon, how thoughtful to think of the old ladies at swimming.
Alex, I think the second dress would look gorgeous on you, very hourglass.

Have a wonderful day, I've been swimming with DH and DS this morning and I've organised a coffee out in town for some of the new mummies from my support group to get them used to feeding out in public.
