    Good morning guys
    One for me please. Today is definitely going to be a NSD for me cos the weather is rotten and I don’t plan on leaving the house.
    I spent more than expected yesterday as I found a nice thick jumper dress that will go nicely with leggings and boots. I had a nice one that is had for years but it finally got threadbare. I’ve been combing Vinted for one and checked the charity shops first but I know I’ll get plenty of wear out of it.
    Anyway better go 
    Hugs to all
