    I love Matalan leggings, they're not the best quality but they're so soft.

    My boyfriend is taking me to see the Lovely Bones and is popping in to work for an hour so I HAVE to wait in the shopping centers. Gosh, life is hard.

    I love this thread, I always wanted people to talk fashion and everyday clothes with.
  • I'm not a fan of the fruit ones, I like herbal ones though :)

    Yep, EA, as well as bargain tights all their jewellery was half price :T
    I might go back Monday as there were some gorgeous earrings, but I want to think about those first.

    Ooh, shorts. Hmmm, I may try a pair on when I go shopping. Probably won't look that good but they might surprise me :)

    Rainbow - that's weird! Is she a totally different shape?

    Hope I don't bang on too much about diets on here :o I will just say that I'm losing the weight for me, because I want to and not to try and conform to any type of beauty ideal. I don't want to be skinny, I just want to feel happy with myself. Slowly getting there...

    Good luck with the shorts, I don't think I'll be going down that route but you never know!

    No she's just a younger and firmer version of me! Ha ha. Bless her, she's gorgeous. Which makes me gorgeous too, :rotfl: how up myself am I?? Ha ha.

    I was a size 18 at one point and have very very slowly (as in it's taken 6 years) got down to a 12 and my motivation? To wear nicer clothes! I am so shallow.

    Toodle pip, I'm off out in the rain to collect my boy.

    queen, this is it: !Bmcb02wCGk~$(KGrHqQH-DQEtyp!PD9jBLfn-tinT!~~_35.JPG it's really pretty, but a 14, and too big for me, which doesn't help the fcat that the style doesn't really suit me anyway..
