A couple of OOTDs and a catch-up

Hi everyone,

Well, I've tried to be good and implement schedules for my blog. But life has a funny way of interrupting the best laid plans. So back to Plan A it is for the time being until all around settles down (Plan A being update and blog when you can and when you feel like it).

So here is a little summary of the last fortnight. Some of what I wore, what caught my eye and generally a bit of everything.

I love a good rummage through charity shops, I found this little gem for 99p!



I also love a sale - and I picked this shirt up from the Marks and Spencer sale reduced to £11.50 (size 20)
(hot chocolate the size of my head - priceless)


Later in the week I went to Chichester for lunch with a dear friend. Chichester is a beautiful little town about 40 mins away from me on the south coast. It's somewhere I always head to for Christmas shopping and there always seem to be something happening. That particular day there was a brass band playing when I got there - but I was too busy watching to take any photos.


I wore this top for the lunch. It's from the Indigo range at Marks and Spencer again (size 20). It's a couple of years old now but they still have similar styles available.


And of course, a bit of shopping had to be done. I don't have a House of Fraser where I live so I always pop in whenever I see one if I'm out and about. This is a real knuckle duster and will probably catch on everything - but who cares! I love it :-)



I'm writing up a couple of posts from a short holiday so that be on the blog soon - shorts and all!

Thanks for reading

Grey day - OOTD

Hi everyone,

I seemed to end up wearing various shades of grey earlier in the week. I did for a fleeting moment consider a 50 shades themed post but thought that was just too much for my little blog!


This shirt is so old. But I've never found anything better to replace it so I keep hoping and praying that it never wears out. It's from Peacocks and is great for dressing up and down.


I don't quite know what was going on here! A very unflattering pose. Anyway, I popped a starry jumper from Marks and Spencer on top. It's a few years old but I've noticed a few items for sale recently with stars so I rescued it from the charity bag and decided to give it another go.


More stars, a few clouds and I'm ready to go!


It wasn't a completely grey day, my old faithful trainers from TU @ Sainsburys made an appearance too!


Bit of an unusual outfit for me - I normally wear more colour. But a change is good occasionally.

Thanks for reading
