    Not a chance, my head doesn't fit into hats, it's been a lifelong problem!

    EDIT: Ignore me, outfit sorted! One of the checked shirts I ordered looks fab with leggings instead of jeans, so that's that *phew*


    That's good. I've never been to a barn dance but would have thought you'd be better dosey doing in pants rather than a skirt/dress. x


    You're lucky though that checked shirts are back in fashion again. x


    Whilst I have been good and haven't hankered after any toiletries/cosmetics and the like I have impulsively ordered the QVC YC TSV. Am thinking that it will be MSE though as the burner is electrical and therefore will cut down on the cost of replacing tealights.
    Back for the No Buying Toiletries challenge. I pledge to only buy when I run out of a product that is not already in my stash no matter what wonderful emails land in in my Inbox or threads I read on MSE re: glitches!
