Love that dress Daisy, feeling better today but prob as most of it is new - I tend to find every 6 months or so I just get bored with what I have, so todays outfit is:

DP straight leg jeans
Zara brown top with leather look shoulder patches
DP Dark beige swing jacket/ cardi -bargainicious £7 in the sale- definately a staple in the spring wardrobe I think

Hope we don't get any more snow, after over 4 weeks of it I'm a bit bored of it!!!!!!!!!

ugg-style black boots.

Morning! I have my first day at work today, well, hardly a day as I'm only in 2-5 for training! From next week it'll be 3 x 4 hour shifts a week, which doesn't sound a lot but it's the most I've been able to do since I was 19

Outfit:
Black fine knit top: Next via Mum

Tailored shorts (Made from a charity-shopped vintage pair of gent's evening trousers)
Long sleeved skinny top (Topshop sale £2 in 2008)
Lace tights (Urban Outfitters via the charity shop)
High heeled brogues (Charity shop)
Tons of silver bangles and rings (India)
Vintage silk flamingo print neck scarf (Charity shop)

Have a good day all! Hope the first day back to work isn't too taxing.

Thanks girlies,

Well, I found the peacocks peter pan collar dress in my local store, so *had* to buy it. It's justified though as it's perfect for work and play! I also used cash I'd put aside for Christmas emergencies which I clearly don't need now, so that makes it even better! The £4 change I had was spent on a leopard maxi skirt I'd been eyeing in New Look that was further reduced in the sale.

Actually,
I'm kind of ok money wise right now, but have transferred my food obsession on to money and it's a big acheievement to spend anything on myself...
retail therapy has taken on a whole new meaning
