Weekend Wearing

20th June 2011

This weekend was all about the comfort, old favourites and dressing for the bloody awful weather.
It was a great weekend though; the famous (infamous?) Best.Friend. has passed her driving test and so we ventured further afield than normal and squeed over baby bunnies at the garden centre and hit the jackpot on the 2p machines. She also came with me to see my grandparents, and just because we had the car and we didn’t have to carry things, we spent a small fortune on crap in Tesco (anyone else do that?)

I also managed to get out on my poor neglected bike yesterday. I really need to stop being lazy and use the poor thing more!

This week should be fairly quiet, apart from today where I’m working all day, I have no overtime and will be doing my usual half days…that’ll be strange, I’ve got used to working a “normal” amount now, but I daresay the break will do me good.

Tomorrow has been declared “tattoo tuesday“. Needless to say, I can’t wait (although don’t get too excited, it’s only going to be a small, meaningful piece of ink).

Shoe Sunday; Mad for Melissa

19th June 2011

By all rights, I should hate Melissa shoes, they go against my long term resentment of jelly shoes that stem back to not being allowed a pair as a child, however, the more I look at the designs the more my resolve weakens…

Gold Campana Zig Zag look like they’ll be perfect with rolled up hems.

The Lady Dragon Westwood could be a fun yet practical work shoe (and by practical I mean immune to my coffee spill issues)

The Liberty sandals just appeal with their clean cut lines and shiney appearance

And as for the blue Ultragirl Westwood; well, these combine all my shoe hatreds in one, and yet I still lust after them.

What do you think? A Melissa fan or not?

Were you allowed jelly shoes as a child?

Snacking Saturday; perfect pretzels

18th June 2011

I think that by now most of us in the UK are familiar with Penn State pretzels. For me they symbolise the transition from teenage piss up, complete with cold pizza and pringles, to more sophisticated affairs featuring, err, cold pizza and pretzels.

Penn State have recently launched some new flavours in to the mix, and indeed some new snacks in the form of baked deli chips,
but what REALLY excited me was the re-launch of Worcestshire Sauce flavour pretzels. Because I am weird like that…

A package stuffed with goodies greeted me from work one day.
The sour cream flavour is GOOD
but the Worcestshire Sauce flavour…
AMAZING. I cannot get enough.

YES!

Your all welcome to come to my next party; but please, bring your own pretzels.

easy

17th June 2011

Influx of outfit posts this week…what’s going on? This skirt is another new buy; bought Sunday, post night out shopping with Becca [she wore the same skirt Saturday night, as soon as I saw it, I needed it]

Sunday is a good day to go to Primark, especially when it is POURING rain outside. I have never seen it quite so quiet!
