Morning girls! Nice and sunny in Yorkshire today, still really cold though! OH is going off on a boys' weekend so I'm going to trawl the charity shops, do some baking and my sister is coming over tonight for wine, pizza and X Factor! What a great Saturday.

Will be updating my blog later (with a much more interesting outdoor picture... it's always dark by the time I get home from work during the week, hence the dull, white wall poses! ) but for now, here's today's:

Purple and yellow graphic floral print jersey dress (£25, Topshop)
Purple cardi
Grey tee
Grey belt
Grey wool tights
Black leather riding boots (£80, Office)

Happy Saturday!

Hey Glow your outfit sounds fab today, I'm guessing by the colours you are wearing that your tan is up to scratch? I am going to have to have a serious tanning session tonight. So today I opted for:-
Cream Bench knitted jumper (Lots of bronzer on face and hands )
Black fitted vest underneath (Primark)
Dark blue jeans (Dotty Ps)
Black flat knee length boots (Rocketdog)

Everyone sounds very well dressed today. I'm letting the side down by loafing around in a dressing gown and towel (mint green and white respectively). Need to go and get dressed as I'm off out in an hour but no idea what to wear :rolleyes:

I wish I could use fake tan, but I'm so translucent I always turn orange!

Everyone sounds like they are looking lovely.

I'm in a baaaaaaaaad mood. Turns out work neglected to tell me I had holiday today (despite me checking a couple of weeks ago and being told I had nothing booked till the new year)
but we were short staffed and I'm nice, so I stayed and I get a day off in a few weeks.

You can if you use professional products and the right strength for your colouring, my dd is as pale as you and looks great with a light colour and with a lot less effort than I have to make;)

edit - Just want to add you look lovely pale:)

Aww Daisychain you look beautiful without a tan you've got great skin too.

My outfit today is:
teal button up tunic
black lacy vest top
navy leggings
grey ankle slouchy boots
long pearl necklaces, charm bracelets, wedding rings and floral bead earrings that a friend made and have had loads of people say they love!

Just had to put a cardi on as it's getting a bit chilly now.

I really want (need) some black ankle boots I have seen some that I love but while I was faffing about trying to get a voucher code and seeing if they were cheaper/nicer elsewhere they all went out of stick grrrr.

This is them.

If the link doesn't work they are called miller boots and from additions direct. I have also tried all the other catalogues in the group and all out of stock. I'm gutted.

Thanks girls.

Vicki, said it before, but I'm so glad to see you posting in here

I have some very similar boots from La Redoute

ok maybe not THAT similar but they are SO comfortable.

don't know if that helps at all?

Hi ladies. I have not posted on this thread for sooo long!

Todays outfit is
Black leggings - new look
Long white and grey grandad shirt - DP's
Long grey boyfriend cardi - George
Black flat suede boots with fringe down the sides - New look

I have been looking for ages for a pair of black knee length boots with a chunkier heel, but not quite a block, more of a cuban, and about 2 - 3 inches, oh, and the boots have to be leather (cos I get rancid feet in man made materials!) and cheap!

Anyone have any ideas?
