    Evening,

    Sorry I've not popped in for a few days.

    Been good on the shopping front though - had to report my bank cards lost over the weekend so I've no access to any real money at the moment. That's slowed me right down! Am toying with the idea of buying no clothes or shoes for the whole of Nov, but that might be crazy talk!

    Hope everyone's good.

    xx

    Evening.

    Todays outfit.
    Blue woollen shift dress with snowflakes on: Primark at weekend
    Cream polo neck : Primark at weekend
    Black thick tights
    Black biker style boots: Barrets.

    I do think I should get a bit more daring in my choice of tights :D

  • Love the sound of the snowflakes dress Whatatwit! Might have to pay a visit to primark even though told myself no clothes this month.....
    I love food, hate waste and have a penchant for sparkly things ::D

    Trying to find a work life balance...:rotfl:

    Shoe help needed please.

    I bought a blue dress from Dorothy Perkins a few weeks ago.
    It's above the knee in a chiffony fabric with sheer sleeves and with a cream bead detail around the hem and cuffs and neck.

    I have seen these in M&S but they weren't as comfortable as I would like, especially not for the price.

    All suggestions welcome. :D

    I will try and find a link to the dress.....its similar to this one

    It's in a blue slightly flecked wool with a pattern around the bust and neck area and then again around the bottom....2 little pockets as well. I thought it was great for £11.
    It goes well with a light grey top underneath too.

    Sorry for leading you astray :D

    Ugh, I have for some reason been awake since 4:15! Not amused in the slightest.
    Off to do some photocopying for Mum this morning
    I'm also thinking of applying for a job and getting myself off benefits, not sure if I'm ready yet but I might just let fate take it's course.

    Outfit today:
    Black + cream fair isle jumper dress: New Look
    Black temperature regulating tights: Tesco (these are ace!)
    Black + grey legwarmers, scrunched down
    Black lace up stompy boots: New Look

    Random cosy outfit day.

    Whatatwit; I'd try New Look for shoes!

    My feet shrank a bit but not overnight! Can you shove some insoles into them?

    Outfit is:

    Skinny jeans - DP
    Black cowboy boots - Evans
    Green puddycat bow blouse - from Vix :)
    Black and embellished waistcoat - River Island (thank you Char for tracking it down!)

    Laura, self regulating tights sound fun!!
