    Haha, yes, last seasons Primark does not make a dress vintage ;)
  • Hello :wave:

    I love reading what you are all wearing, it's making me think twice before I sling on some too-big-for-me dress over leggings with the added accessory of a pony tail.

    Love the cakes DB, me and DS made some Mr Men cupcakes with a kit, I was very proud of myself! Ha ha. I get the inner perfectionist thing kicking in a lot and it usually leaves me like a rabbit in the headlights and I achieve nothing so well done, it's a horrible feeling.

    I have to say that after lots of resisting I finally bought some skinny jeans and I love them, I would wear them every day. Is it just me though, when I put on the old bootcuts again I feel like I am wearing huge clowny flares??

    I saw you were all chatting about yoga, I go once a week, it was a sort of post-ex resolution, and I love it. I haven't noticed any difference in any health/fitness but taking that time for me is such a weird concept for me and I think a good thing to get used to!

    Hope everyone is feeling better today, I looked back a bit and saw that life's not been too easy.

    Not my vintage bag which is currently listed ;)

    Evening ladies...sorry I've not been around much today, I'll be around all day tomorrow because I'll be working on the computer all day and I can't think of any better company to keep :)

    I haven't updated blog today yet (I'm getting slack!) but here is what I wore today: still layering, wish the cold would GO AWAY!

    Grey jersey polo neck - £5 new look sale
    navy and white ditsy heart print dress with ruffled front new look sale £8
    Blue primark boyfriend cardi £10ish (one of my staples)
    Blue skinny jeans £8 primark
    Office tan cowboy boots £5 chazza shop
    H&M tan mac £3.99 chazza shop
    Burnt orange coloured beads

    So jeans again even though I was going to wear a skirt, but it's sanity (read warmth) over vanity at the moment.

    Thankfully I'm warm now though cos we've had the coal fire going all afternoon :)

    Will update blog soon and I'm going to catch up on everyone elses xx
    *wonders when they will make dressing gowns acceptable day wear?*
    No new toiletries challenge - use up the stash first!

    I love the cake kits you can buy, I get them when they are cheap so I can make something quickly if I have friends coming over.

    I remember getting my first pair of skinny jeans, now I feel odd in anything else! I felt so frumpy in the jeans I was wearing today, but my skinny jeans have been relegated to the "when I gain weight" pile, and my Dad has promised me a really decent pair when I stabilise properly.


    My grandparents just rang me,
    they've bought me a memory foam mattress topper for my bed because they thought it'd be more comfortable for me :o
    *is in tears, again*
    oh what am I like?!
