I really need to get an oyster card but never get round to doing it. I'm going to bluewater around 3ish, because my boyfriend is picking me up when i've finished... Must list items on eBay but it's being silly!!

Oh give over, the pair of you. Tea, I bet you're beautiful and Char, I know you are so no gloomy comments please

I took the approach of hiding behind an enormous scarf in my pics today :rotfl: . Does anyone else have those days when you look in the mirror and think "ooh, quite nice" (this is rare in itself for me) and then the photos look nothing like your reflection?

goan & jaq - I'm so excited! Honestly, I can't wait for it to be 7.30pm

yes today is one of thise days

Aw, I want to give everyone feeling bad about themselves a huge hug


My mum just presented me with a little gift wrapped box with a spaceform token in it saying
"no dream is ever too big"

I thought I was over being tearful

Yep, gorgeous but far too expensive! I had some antique green ones from Matalan a couple of years ago for about a tenner and wore them to death.

I like them. I have similar in purple and grey, Betty Jackson ones. Mine hurt me though: I should sell them...if only I could work out ebay:o:o

I didn't read the price but I would say I have shoes from office that are about 14 years old and look good still. Those are quite timeless for librarian chic, or victoriana even.....you'll be pulling them out in a decade if you want to.

Just editing my blog, left it last night without fixing the images... Should I go bluewater by myself? Never been by myself!

I much prefer shopping by myself, but I let my mum come if she is buying.

no-one here could look horrible in a picture if they tried, so hush pretty girlies

Well said, This thread is about how beautiful and stylish we are!

I love Matalan for shoes - I don't think I've ever paid over £15 for a pair in there.

Today I continued the jeans and t shirt theme (going to rename my blog at this rate) blue skinny flares, black t shirt, black blazer, new tan shoes, multiple necklace theme, wide tan belt and earrings from PF.

Both Bad and good news here - Little niece couldn't manage off the ventilator so they have put her back on it for 24 hours. It's positive that they thought she was well enough to try though. Fortunately I can put my sensible nurses head on quite easily, I've told hubby not to visit as I know he won't cope with it well. I'm still too coldy to visit. Nephew is with grandparents at the moment.

Good news is my Top Shop voucher arrived. I'm going to go tomorrow afternoon and spend it. I can't use it online apparently, I will have to resist temptation when I walk past Primark and New Look!
