    Question - can I wear black tights and black shoes with a navy suit??

    Absolutely, and maybe have something bright e.g. scarf, belt, bag? Good luck with the interview, we're rooting for you.

    I had a sort of freedom day - wore my yellow daffodil wellies to walk to work and my WalkTheWalk t-shirt. Not ready yet to wear good stuff to work and spoil it.

    Nitenite all

    BIG freedom day for me today. Beige jumper, brown tights, brown trousers and brown shoes! Working on wearing something other than grey and black to work at the moment as it's all I seem to wear.

    Black Cat - I haven't done the coat hanger turning round thing as I know I'd just get irritated that they weren't all facing the same way! Seems like a good idea for those that can cope with it though.

    I am going to go through colours as I've got enough beige and brown clothes to wear at work until the end of February!
    (I have got half term next week though - I haven't got that many clothes!:))

    I'm declaring £4 out of the £5 ebay spend. One thing isnt very nice and its too short anyway so i think i'll stick it on ebay and make some cash back off it. I ended up with a bright red miniskirt, a brown camisole top, a purple long sleeved top, a strapless dress and a pair of blue trousers (its these that are too short).
    Was debt free then ex walked out and COVID hit.

    Another Freedom day here ; I'm really enjoying it. Great idea.
  • Purchased a (gawjuss!) white, blue & red stripy jumper, a pair of leggins, 3 pairs of tights & a lovely scarf - all from Oasis on Sunday should have cost £78 but the assistant let me use my ds' student card for 20% off and used the vouchers my last job gave me when I left so cost to me £0 :T

    Just have my eye on a stripy skirt to wear over leggins & a pair of patterned legginson ebay and I think that is me until the summer - I think but its so hard!

    I am in shock at myself, by now I would have been to primarni at least once a week, and spent maybe only £20 or £30... but that really adds up! The sofa has given up the ghost, and I might use that as an excuse to redo my livingroom, so concentrating on thinking of colour for that =)
