Of course you can block him, he'd not know.
If you lost your phone and changed number would you give him your new one?
Don't even answer that...
NO.

I had to change my moble number, and my house number. He managed to get my mobile number again through a mutual "friend" :mad:

So I had to change my mobile number again.........

Why not start off with a month or so of photographing your outfits? Not necessarily for blog purposes, just so that you can have a look back after a while and try and judge what suits you and perhaps some new things you could try?

I've just been clearing some pics from my camera and I must say, I'm quite pleased with some outfits I perhaps was in a bad mood that day or hated the photo at the time for whatever reason, so didn't necessarily believe the blog comments (and people are generally lovely with their comments btw) but looking back at them, my opinion has totally changed. It's very cheering!

Yeah maybe I should do that - it's just my weekend/free time outfits really that I need to try and spruce up. Most of my work outfits are just boring and practical - I'm a D&T teacher so most of the time skirts are out (not really suitable in the workshop and tights get laddered like nobodies business) and I'm a messy so and so so things tend to get glue and stuff all over them!
I did have a little browse through your blog though Alex and I do love your outfits, you put them together so well!

The main problem I have is knowing what goes with what! You all seem to have a knack of putting outfits together wheras I havent got a clue and tend to "play safe"

I read some of your outfits and look at your blogs and think WOW I wouldn't think of putting that combo together. Also I cant remember the last time I wore a skirt or dress as I just dont know what to "do" with them, as such!

My 'non-work' outfits are definitely in the mould of playing it safe - and I'm the same with skirts and dresses - although I have a few, I always feel too dressed up when I wear them! I need to get out of that mind set I suppose.

We-shop, I think this is the best time to buy a winter coat. You can still get a bit of wear out of it now (especially up there where you are, brrr!) but then you can put it away and as long as it's fairly classic, it'll be fine for next year and no one will have the same!

What course are you studying Daisy if you don't mind me asking?

I doubt I'm one of the ones you mean but all I can suggest is just trying some stuff out and ignore your preconceived ideas about what goes with what. You might surprise yourself - I know I certainly have. As for the dress and skirt thing, I literally hadn't worn one for about 5 years. Now I've got lots and I love them So, yup, just try some things

Blah, thank you all..I'll be ok, just annoyed at myself for letting him still get to me when I keep thinking i'm ok and moving on.
Kinda no point in blocking his number, as I still have to work with him vicki, but i guess I could.

Hehe a fellow shoe hoarder i still am not counting them all for you..

You have to work with him, you don't have to let him invade your personal time as well...

Well I have tried this and thought something looks OK but then I haven't got the confidence to actually go out in it as it's not what people are used to seeing me in, if that makes sense?

Ice you sound exactly like me! I need someone to dress me then throw me out the door and not let me come back!
I have those exact same thoughts!
