  • Morning all. Thanks for all your kind words about my blogging plans - I'll definitely let you know! Piratefairy - it's really, really easy to start a blog. You're really just typing straight into a box (like here) and adding pictures is just the same as on Facebook! You should check out a few blog sites, test the water a bit. I'm thinking of using tumblr, but there are loads of sites available to do all the technical work for you.

    I'm wearing my Red magazine outfit again, which consists of...
    Floral tea dress (£25, Zara)
    Long deep purple cardi
    Purple tights (£4, M&S)
    Black patent pumps
    Black skinny waist belt with gold buckle
    Stack of gold bangles
    Big owl face ring
    Gold and purple patterned cotton scarf

    I was also wearing my beige cotton mac with the sleeves pushed up on my way in to work. Happy Wednesday - hurray for the mid-week! :)

    Oh that's gorgeous! Don't think I could justify spending £22 on a scarf though :o (am extremely skint at the moment!)

    Today it's:

    Navy blue jeans
    Canvas ankle boots
    White long sleeve tshirt with the neckline hacked (it used to be a round neck) so it doesn't show up underneath other tops
    Navy blue short sleeved long line cardi with brass buttons and brass cutout circles around the neckline
  • GrammarGirl, good luck with your blog, I wont take the link cos I really dont need encouraging to spend more time online not working:ohave you tried blogger, really easy to use with lots of layouts available if you search and you can put adsense on there as well and maybe earn a little bit:)
    Thank you for this site Martin
    The time for change has come
    Good luck for the future

    Morning one and all!

    Quick cat update: Lucy's doing well and eating more than ever. No back teeth and a shaved head with stitches running from behind one ear to the top of her nose where she's had a persistent cyst removed - looks like a character from Mad Max!

    Another bright and sunny morning so no winter woolies yet. Off to Pilates shortly then taking my Mum shopping :eek:. She's off on holiday tomorrow and has decided she hasn't got a single pair of sandals to her name. I've tried asking what she's been wearing on her feet all summer but there's no reasoning with her sometimes.

    Today's outfit:
    Black hareems with grey geometric print (50p India)
    Grey mahl vest (TopShop 9 years ago)
    Black rubber flip flops (India)
    Ancient Levi's denim jacket with the sleeves hacked off (DIY job on a jumble sale find)
    Tribal bangles and rings in silver (India)
    Moonstone earrings (Tibetan market)
    Beaded necklace with peacock feather (50p Bay)

    Daisybella, I sound like your clothing twin today.
    GrammarGirl - good luck with the blog.

    Have a good day!

    PS AbsoluteBounder, those clothes are so supremely ugly even those simulated sex poses do nothing to improve them. That grey tracksuit third from the end looks like the uniform of hundreds of package tourists en route to the Canaries.

    I know, but my lovely sis ordered it for me as a present before she went off to uni, so it's not so bad..

    Lose = the opposite of find/gain (eg "I'm going to lose weight this year")
