Started to realise how much more confident clothes make me feel and how much more productive I am at work if I dress smart! The outfit for today has been:

Black Skirt (I think I bought this years ago from my Mums catalogue)
Thick Black Tights (Matalan)
Black heals with a gold trim (Matalan)
Black and white top (Asda)
Black and white neck scarf (Present from Hubby)

Pleased as I'm starting to get positive comments from people at work. I'm wearing my hair down more as well, fed up of it always being in a pony tail
