rock and roll

14th October 2009

Happy Mid-Week! Half way to the weekend, hurrah!
This is actually what I wore yesterday, as today I have (another) cold and look like something the cat dragged in; though not my cat…he’s too lazy and afraid of small creatures to bring anything other than himself through the cat flap!

I think this jumper dress from New Look is going to end up being my buy of the season. I went two sizes up to get the desired loose fit and it’s SO comfortable.

Not much else to report on, such is the quiet life I lead. I’m supposed to be researching my next moves in terms of courses etc,
but really, I’ll probably just crawl back in to bed for the third time today.

Check out our Autumn Handbag Essentials post on Can’t Help but Be, too
I’m trying to step things up a gear with this blog now I’m used to wordpress so expect more posts more often,
including the Christmas gift guides I promised. Many thanks for the suggestions…

12th October 2009

Good morning and Happy Monday, lets hope it’s a better week all round eh?!
The weather is stunning today which I’m taking as a good omen, but only time will tell…

Kicking off the week with this weekend’s Strictly results for those of you who are interested:

As always, see the official BBC website for more details!
Who caught Amy Winehouse’s god daughter’s performance? She is SO talented. Loved it.

Outfit wise I decided to break out one of my many new pairs of tights. One opened, 12 more packs to debut *rolls eyes*…yes, I really do have a problem I think.

(sorry I look so miserable!)

I’ve also started putting together some gift guides on Cant Help but Be and kicked off today with part one, introducing the delicious sounding Chocolateque so please check it out, there is a link to their website on the post.

And on the subject of gifts, what guides would you like to see? Anyone you need ideas for? Always find your best friend hard to buy for? Let me know and I’ll see what I can do in the way of a post.

7 things you’ve always wanted to know about me.

11th October 2009

I was tagged by fellow Bristol dweller Susan to reveal seven facts about myself. So here goes:

1. I LOVE Marmite. Yummy brown goo.

2. I talk. A lot. When there is no one else around to talk to, I have conversations with the cat.

3. Prawns scare me. Just the look of them gives me the creeps. I have never willingly/knowingly eaten them.

4. I don’t have a favourite colour.

5. I am currently addicted to mini smarties.

6. I have lived in the same town my whole life, and would love to relocate somewhere new, just for some variety.

7. I used to practise Judo. I got up to Green Belt then quit. I also used to kayack.

So there we go, I hope you are now enligtened.
Long time readers will know I always opt out of tagging specific people, and this is no exception.
Tag yourselves, or answer in comments. DO IT PEOPLE, I’m NOSY!

Thank you for the kind, sweet words on my last post

yesterday and today

09th October 2009

Hello all,
This will be more of an outfit post than a words post as this week has just down right sucked.
Ron’s brother Harry passed away (peacefully and from old age) yesterday, and this time of year and awful weather combined with that as well have made me a sad bunny.

So, outfits:
YESTERDAY

Have a great weekend all,

Mid Week outfit

07th October 2009

Happy Wednesday one and all (though for some reason my head is telling me its Thursday..please tell me I’m wrong?!)

Nothing spectacular going on in the wardrobe department today, does anyone else find this time of year a complete nightmare when it comes to picking what to wear? It’s not yet cold enough for full on winter gear, but my spring and summer attire, even with layering just doesn’t look right against the grey skies and fallen leaves.

I look a bit tired and miserable today, eek, well that’s what being woken up at 7am will do to ya,
but when the culprit looks this cute, what is a girl to do?

Have a great day!
