Frugal Frump to Fab - The Journey Continues

Excellent news about the job Floss - hope they're paying you the extra it's going to cost to look the part (shellac etc)

Congratulations Floss that is great news

I spend £20 at beauticians a month that gets me an eyebrow wax, eyelash tint and other parts waxed. I also pay £20 every 3 weeks on my gel polish on my nails. My nail tech is wonderful and uses IbD it's great stuff

As for wardrobe, I am continuing with editing, just got 2 new scarfs, denim shirt for with leggings, and two new cardigans for £10 each from oasis sale in black and navy. A navy cashmere jumper from next sale. (Great for next autum /winter.)

A little more bill paying off and I'll be able to start buying a few bits and bobs for the summer. I have some linen trousers I bought last year in sale, so some new vests, tops and maybe skirts needed...

I spend most of my time in ballet pumps and sandals in the summer... Time to start thinking about feet/toes and starting the moisturiser at nightso they are ready for presenting to the world.... Cue another thing to adding to the fabbing

Hope you are all well ladies ....

Just had the good news that I've been offered a PA to Director post with a local NHS trust, so I need to refresh my working wardrobe to bring it up to PA level. I also need to factor in regular grooming (roots/shellac/eybrow wax/eyelash tint/leg wax) appointments

Brilliant Floss well done :T:T

I love all the talk of linen trousers. I love them but I never buy them as I can't stand the creasing. Even the linen mix crease too much for my tastes
Summer wardrobe......I loathe summer in many respects. Everything has thin spaghetti straps which do not suit me and my swimmers shoulders at all
I need to purchase some more summer wear but end up feeling deflated when I do so I am currently putting it off when I look online everything has such high necks, dresses, tops etc. frustrating when I need something v necked.

Anyway welcome rosy welcome to the thread.

Teacher hope you're feeling better soon x



Hugs and high fives all round x

I'm also finding that v-necks are hard to buy. When I find them I buy several

Depends who was doing the makeover! I used to love the Gok Wan makeover show as people looked fabulous by the end
