    You sound very jazzy though Char :) What's the fit of that dress like? My friend tried it on when we were shopping the other day and it looked really weird on her.

    I think i would prefer it tighter on the waist - going to put a couple of stitches in it i htink, and i'm not sure about how it looks from behind, but i have had a nice compliment on it so far, so perhaps i'm just being paranoid lol..

    ETA - actually, having just ch3ecked it out in the toilet mirrors, i'm not so sure about the shape of it anymore :S

    Hi,

    Well, it's back to the usual rain here. Wearing a DP cat-print blouse, jeans and ankle boots.

    Have sold some stuff on eBay to cover weekend purchases, which is good. Trying hard to be money neutral.

    PF - yes, please blog your outfits, have been missing your pics.

    xx

    I'm hoping to crossover a lot of summer/autumn stuff over the next couple of weeks but I'm definitely going to have to get the big box of tights down from the shelf. Can't believe how cold and grim it is :(

    What have you been buying Sarah?

    Afternoon!

    The weather has been so weird today, torrential rain one minute then bright sunshine the next - eek!

    I went for some retail therapy earlier (well I had to post some eBay items and return some things to New Look so it would have been rude not to look in the sales!)

    I got this and a grey lacey dress (cant find on the website) from Republic.

    Also a black top with a lace trim from Dotty P's - can't find a pic of this one either :mad:

    Now, i'm still on the look out for those perfect jeans - argh!!

    My jewellery has arrived although its now at the PO and I have to collect it, grr! Will go just before they close and hopefully it wont be busy!
    Make £10 a day challenge (August) - £175/£310

    The DP blouse I've got today

    and a Topshop fake-leather biker jacket with a furry collar (can't find on website).

    I've made £100 on eBay to cover it and have also given lots of stuff to my mum and the charity shop so not feeling tooooo guilty!
