Good morning:)

I think i may have those dark grey pj's too......i nearly bought the velour tracksuit......dh stopped me, bless him!!

I really like them and they were under a fiver, wish I got the pink ones too, I was looking at the trackie but my friend dragged me away she said if you went out in that I'd have to start talking about you:rotfl:

Oh your dress sounds lovely glowgirl.......... is Boohoo.com any good? Never tried them

Theres either loads or nothing on there, its cheap, not great quality but fast fashion if you like, every time I wear this particular dress people compliment me on it, I've had it for about a year and it cost £7:Dthe sizing is big, I am a size 8 and the size 8 from boohoo hangs on me, but I quite like that cos I usually wear floaty stuff anyway.

I think its called L'Oreal Perfection Primer? I had a sachet in a mag and lost it on the way home Think I need something under my makeup, I noted my skin wasn't as smooth as it usually is today. Or can anyone suggest a good primer if it isn't?

I would recommend the body shop primer from experience or I read Laura Mercier is good but haven't tried it myself, oh, and smashbox is supposed to be good but haven't tried that either, if you want to control shine No7 shine control in a white tube is second to none, loads of make up artists use it.

By the way, Glowgirl, the best way of all to do the IKEA meatballs is to steam them - that way, all the icky fat drips out into the water - then you can pop them in a dry nonstick pan for crispy bits or in a casserole dish!

My OH would love them done this way, thank you, I'll give it a go, I like the fat though (hangs head in shame);)

Todays outfit will be

Skinny dark jeans - primark
Black skinny t shirt - was my daughters - new look
gold and silver wedges - asos

Black paddington bag - chloe

Yay its Friday:T

I'm going to wear the blue outfit that got me all the smiles and cheeky looks last weekend. But I'm slouching it till then doing housework and gardening.

Friday is my favourite day of the week: my DH comes home.

Morning all!

Just nipping on before I head to the shops... doesn't feel like Friday as I've been off work for two days already! My internal calendar is messed up!

Here's today's:

Purple and white printed tunic dress (French Connection via eBay, 99p! It restored my faith in buying second hand after the hideous dress I received earlier this week)
Black leggings
Mustard yellow cardi (adore this, think I wear it too much!)
Mustard yellow suede wait belt with bronze buckle (found this in the back of my closet... where did it come from?!)
Tan leather gladiators
Wooden bangle (charity shop, 50p)
Peace symbol necklace (handmade)

Happy Friday!
