    You sound like me I used to have a pile of house clothes bigger than my "best" clothes and got into the habit of alway wearing tatty jogging bottoms and stretched out of shape tops that when I did have to go out I panicked and wore a fail safe of jeans and a tshirt even though I have many many pretty things. Does nothing for your confidence! I felt frumpy and awful and jealous of all the other mummies that looked so good.

    Being on here has helped my confidence no end- I still get scared wearing certain things but I feel so much better for getting something nice on doing my hair and make up even if Im only going to the shops:)

    What I did was go through everything and if it didnt fit/make me feel good or was holey and tattered I got rid- honestly how many pairs of holey leggings or joggers does one person need to clean in?? Then it left me with no choice but to wear my good stuff!

    Evening all :)

    Gosh, it's taken me ages to read through all the pages of chat from today!

    Just going to update the blog and go to bed I think. I'm having a bad photo day - I thought the outfit looked nice in the mirror but the photos make it look super shapeless, grr.
  • what age kids clothes do you sell?

    I've got mainly age 5-6 at the moment. Just stuff my daughters have grown out of. Maybe some smaller age 4-5 and a few 3-4. I've so much to list but can't seem to get my finger out.

    I decided to order the shoes with part of my tax rebate. I'll use the rest to get a new microwave, since ours has stopped working (ah, my glamourous life...) ;)
