Morning all.

Mto - if you won't be happy or comfortable in a skirt then the smart trousers suggestion is a good one. Whack some lovely jewellery on and you'll look gorgeous

My outfit is dull today:

Black tights, black suede pumps and grey cableknit jumper - DP
Grey, black and white floral jersey skirt - Tesco sale

Haha, don't panic, not for any dodgy reason - i'm thinking halloween!

Having never used false eyelashes, how does one remove them? Is there a glue remover you can also purchase? Think I need to go to boots today!

My mum used to be a casualty simulation make up person for the Red Cross and I am sure she took spirit gum off with surgical spirit but I don't fancy that near anyone’s eyes, she always moisturised the skin afterwards as well.


Today

Burgundy cap toe oxford shoes
Black socks
Faded royal blue Bedford cords
Blue striped button down shirt
Navy and Brown herringbone jacket
Red floral tie

White ear tunnel
Steel bracelet watch rose face

Got my grey raincoat and black fedora on standby as it look like more rain on the way

Morning.
I'm doing a little bit of Christmas shopping today (can't wait to run around Toys R Us)

My outfit today: (quite boring)

Long grey embellished Tshirt - Jane Norman
Black leggings - H&M
Boots - New Look

Having a very bad skin week , so I will be visiting the make up counters to see if I can get a sample of Estee Lauders Double Wear foundation.

Anyone on here using Rimmel's lash accelerator? I managed to win one but I'm finding that its irratating my eyes. Anyone else find this?

ooo a lovely shiny new thread!!

Been awol, but have been keeping up with blogland!! I won't bore you all with the details but i have been really sick, and found out the reason i can't shift weight, so been feeling bleurgh for far too long and had far too many yoga pants days!!

Line drawn, feeling a tad better, so last night i actioned a tidy out of wardrobe and today i got dressed properly.

Wearing leggings from primark, stripey tunic from dp, a gorgeous velour shoulder padded jacket from primark duo boots and scarf.

weather's not too bad, off out for a root around charity shops.

oh (hugs) to you sharron, hope things are looking up now..

douglas, i'll bear that in mind - it's technically face not eyes, but i'm not sure where to get spirit gum from anyway, so thinking i'll have to find some eyelash glue / remover from boots or somewhere (hoping thts not a giant task!)

Sharron!! I've been wondering where you were! Sorry to hear about the illness

Good hunting at the chazza shops.

Afternoon!

Nice to see you again, Sharron!

PirateFairy - False eyelashes are just pulled off at the end of the night, no specialist remover necessary.

I've been car booting and am working on a patchwork bolster cover at the moment. It's driving me insane.

Today's outfit:
High waisted acid-wash skiiny jeans
Vintage 1960's navy blouse
Stripy thigh high socks
1960's brown leather knee boots
Mustard cable knit beanie hat
Silver jewellery

Ho hum, back to the grindstone, I will start these things.

Good afternoon

Outfit today:
Bleach washed vintage denim shirt dress: ebay
Mustard coloured tights: primark
Grey calf length flat boots: primark

Not much on the agenda as I have a busy day tomorrow if all goes to plan

You get it from a fancy dress or a joke shop here.
