choccymoose

Jeans with luminous patches over them and luminous pockets, scarily wore them with a white hoody with massive purple hand print. oh oh oh just remembered an even scarier item of clothing, a navy blue sweatshirt with lots of cats on chasing ball of wool :eek:. I was 13 and my mum made me wear it, cos it was warm!!!

I had a denim jacket at one point, too, I was probably again 8 or 9. Not too bad right?
Well it was passed on to me by an Aunt far bigger than I was at the time,

and was constructed of patches of pastel coloured denim.

Do you think in 10/15 years time we are going to be looking back at ourselves now and still be thinking what the hell are you wearing? lol

I experimented with a different necklace today whoop whoop.

Wearing

Straight leg jeans Next £25
Black Cowl Neck I think jumper Primarni £6
Raspberry crochet drap cardi

Large Butterfly Necklace Primarni £2

Flat black boots Animal £60
Black Jacket Oneill (lots of pennies but was a present)

My FIL commented on the necklace, but it was a good comment and the kids liked it too. Was dressed quite relaxed as spent the afternoon at the beach with the kids. It was so warm we had to take our coats off, sorry for all of you who are suffering with the cold.:)

Oh I'm putting some of these on the blog, they're too funny not to share.

Is it bad that I actually quite want a grown up version of one of the outfits though? Red, blue and white checked shirt, red cord pinafore dress and white and red heart pattern tights?

totally!


Choccy- hurrah for experimenting. It's all about making small changes when it comes to your style, I think, so you have a chance to get accustomed.


Alex- I'd likely wear that kinda outfit now!

Evening,

Gorgeous sunny day here - feeling in really good spirits after being a bit down this week.

Lola - sorry to hear about your loss and agree that the shoes are a lovely idea. I once went to a funeral where everyone was asked to wear something purple as the person had loved that colour and it was a wonderful tribute.

Managed to spend money before 9am this morning . Got this fab necklace using the discount code on Db's blog:

Thanks Daisy :T

Childhood clothes - hmmm, had a pair of velvet pedal pushers that I loved. Was quite partial to denim dungarees too. :eek:

I would love a cord pinafore dress! My DD has a red one that has a full skirt- its not fair kids get all the fun!

Daisy - the denim jacket was fine until you mentioned the pastel patches:D

Retro - My OH had ponytail in the early 90's but shaved underneath think he tries to forget about it now!!!!;)

Woo, so glad someone is getting use from the codes! I wishhhhhh I could justify treating myself to a piece of jewellery right now, but I just have so much that the money is better of being put towards other things


Oh, I had a pedal pusher obsession
and t-shirts with cutesy animals
and ill fitting jeans in vile colours such as poo brown.
