Juby - depends how much you want to spend, but there is a lovely pair of boots in Aldo that I am absolutely coveting: http://www.aldoshoes.com/uk/women/boots/mid-boots/75714163-balduf/22

Or alternatively, Peacocks had a similar version: http://www.peacocks.co.uk/Womenswear/Footwear/Boots/BROWN_SQUARE_TOE_BIKER_BOOTS_-44700093.html#

thanks, wow £85, dont think hubby will be to impressed especially after i spent nearly that last week on clothes:o.

ill only really be using them for the school run, they just need to have grips and keep my feet dry.

i really really want some pastry trainers but i dont know where stock them in the uk. ive been everywhere looking for them

Aloha all. Its cold and grey and dank here today. My hands are freezing! I always get really cold hands (bad circulation) and because I'm typing all day it really affects my fingers and makes it hard to move fast. So I bought some fingerless gloves last year (the ones with the optional mitten bit you can pull over!) and wear them for work now! I look like a homeless person but never mind.

Anyway. Here's mine for today:

Skinny jeans
Grey 'Holy Shi-tzu!' t-shirt with dog print (£25, Truffle Shuffle)
Blue and white pinstriped blazer (£20, New Look)
Grey plimsolls
Silver Sweetie bracelet (Links of London)
Silver charm bracelet (Pandora)
Long string of pearls

All my jewellery items today are presents from family. Makes me happy to wear them!

Juby - get well soon! Lovely to see you back, Gymfiend!

I'm quite proud to declare that I love myself and who I am. I take pride in dressing up each day and even if I don't leave the house posting on this thread is an incentive to make an effort. I exercise daily, eat well and am happy with my life, what I can't change I accept. By loving myself I love others and those who post spiteful, negative comments have my pity as they are obviously unhappy with who they are.

Anyway enough of the hippy sh*t...I'm just back from yoga and I'm wearing:

Purple hareem pants (H&M via car boot sale 20p)
Purple ribbed vest with emerald vest over the top (TopShop 2 for £9 deal over three years ago)
Black rubber flip flops (India 50p)
Indian tribal silver rings
Indian silver bangles (one on each wrist so I don't jangle too much)
Polished turquoise stud earrings set in silver (pressie)
Beaten silver pendant with turquoise stone on heavy silver snake chain (Tibetan street market)
Hair in a huge messy pile on top of my head

Peace and love, dudes!

You know, buddies, I have fab little images of you all in my head based on what you've posted and a healthy dose of my own imagination!

I think you should share them! Mine probably involves living in jeans :rotfl:

Me too! My office is freezing (and I always randomly seem to end up with my right hand much colder than my left ) so I have a snazzy collection of fingerless gloves, some normal and some with the mitten bit which always make me feel about 5 again

And today's outfit is...

(surprise surprise) dark blue jeans - Evans - although I will be buying some new trousers soon, I promise! These are getting v. baggy now.
White ribbed long line vest top - Dotty P's
Oatmeal long line cardi - Tesco
Canvas ankle boots - Office
Gold studs - borrowed from Mum's jewellery box as I've realised I don't own a single pair of gold earrings
Gold necklace with wooden beads on

And some Soap & Glory perfume which is just lovely!

i love lacoste too.

i ran out a few weeks ago and threw a fit:D. well `time of the month` came and i was rummaging through my toiletries shelf for my tampax and found a big unopened bottle from last xmas:D

i also love paul smith london (the red bottle), that is my ultimate perfume. hubby commented that he was in the pub and a woman walked past him wearing MY perfume, think it confused him a little.:rotfl:

LiR...maybe be a closet lurker for a while...like me! Then you can see what's going on, but post when you wish to (or if you are feeling a bit unwell, when you feel able to).... :grouphug:

I agree with the above comments LiR..Stay around, I had some time off of posting for a while the last time this happened, and came back when it all dies down a bit..But I sympathise as it can get you rather down..

Feeling awful myself today, just "not quite there" and keep making stupid mistakes at work etc and then feeling worse because of them. I think I need a few days off.

Anyway, today's outfit..
Black halterneck dress with pink rose print, and pink net underneath, Dorothy Perkins via Ebay a long while ago..
Pale pink cardi with bead and sequin trim, Primark
Pink beaded headband, H&M
Pearly and pink bead bracelets..various,
Irregular Choice, via ebay, flats - black with girl on them, and black ribbons to tie round ankles..
Black leggings..
Black neck scarf with white skull and crossbone print.
