    Oooooooooh, I'll take the Mac eye shadow if it's still going!

    On a similar note, I have Soap & Glory stuff that I'm not getting on well with - so disappointed. Almost full Clean Mary cleanser (makes my eyes sting and I'm way too lazy to use a separate eye make up remover and cleanser) and a travel size of Hair Supply (making my hair too flyaway).

    Let me know if you'd like 'em.

    Aww, daisy, he's just trying to tell you he loves you, in his own little catty way. At least he doesn't lie on the windowsill in full view of the main road with his legs akimbo... like some cats I could mention! (wee fluffy tart...)

    Just dropping in as usual these days!
    A bit of an uninspired outfit today as I didn't think I would be going anywhere but decided at the last minute to go to a record fair.

    purple and grey velvet panelled skirt (me made)
    purple long sleeved v-neck top (Tesco)
    black wool cardi (me made the other day, I've needed one for ages)
    black faux suede knee boots (Primark)

    Off to Manchester tomorrow as oldest daughter has an interview with Thomas Cook for an overseas rep so if anyone has any free I'd appreciate some crossed fingers!

    I'll cross my fingers, that sounds like a wonderful opportunity, where would she be based?
    Did you knit your cardi or is one of your sewn together creations?

    No idea! She could be sent anywhere, when she worked for Thomson she did 3 seasons in the Algarve.
    The cardi I made out of a lovely Matinique mans polo neck jumper, just a few minor alterations made it into a perfectly acceptable house cardi that I'm not ashamed to wear out. I might well blog it soon =)

    Fingers crossed for her!

    The eyeshadow palette is amazing but I just wouldn't be able to bring myself to pay that sort of money for makeup - I'm such a cheapskate!

    Daisy - what's your prom dress like? Will you definitely not wear it again?
  • Lots of chatter yet again!

    Worst childhood clothing ... Well being a child in the 90s you had to have the addidas tracksuit bottoms in various colours, think some of the best I owned were blue with neon orange stripes and black with lime green stripes. Fab. Also had a peter pan jumper where the characters velcroed on so you could make peter pan fly and chase tinkerbell.

    Todays outfit is just a at home cleaning affair really

    Black leggings
    Balck tshirt
    Pink open knit jumper dress

    The Alice eye palette looks lovely, but just couldnt justify spending that much I dont think :S Plus I am not overly brilliant at doing eye make up(always imagine how I want it to look in my head but never quite works out!)

    Oh god, I had the black and lime green tracksuit bottoms. With a sort of matching lime green tracksuit top with the stripes in black :o

    The shame of it.
