    Swinstie, put those red shoes on IMMEDIATELY!

    Ok Miss *but hides feet under desk and changes shoes each time she goes to the copier* :D

    They're not too bad, just not my usual and I work with guys who almost always notice and comment on anything different, but it makes me embarrassed - actually just a thought, are guys who notice and comment on women's clothes not usual a bit on the 'happy' side ;)

    Ok :o

    Actually, I think the problem wasn't the red shoes, but the red shoes/red cardi combo!

    I tried them on when I came home tonight, still didn't like them but then when I took off my cardi and only had my black trousers and cami on, they actually looked quite nice. I tried on my black cardi and even added a necklace with red in it, and I looked ok.

    Think you're outfit Shoe Gal is what swung it, not sure if you wore black jeans or not but it sounded 'better' than mines. What colour jacket/coat did you wear?

    I had a grey coat and it looked really naff. Damn, maybe it was the coat that was wrong, now I need to buy a new coat :D

    Swinstie love, your work sounds just like mine and I get a bit shy about what to wear and blend into the background.

    My freedom monday was a bit boring this week just black boots not worn for ages and my bag from last week. The coat I had in mind did not go with the rest of the outfit so will pop it on tomorrow instead

    Maybe a Freedom week eh?

    That's right :D

    Could be anything different - clothes, shoes, coats, bags, jewellry, make up, hair piece, slide, bobble, etc, brooch, ring - anything at all

    Shall we go for it this week?
