Blue is the colour ...



Wore this Blue Skirt again today (as you will see in a minute, I also wore it yesterday!) We went to the baby weigh in clinic and then to do a spot of shopping .. got myself some new knee high boots as my Christmas present from my mum :D

Have been looking for some for a while, but I find that if the boot fits me around the foot they are too big at the top and gape .. and tend to look like Wellies .. but as if I was Cinderella this particular pair fit perfectly!

What I Wore:
Skirt: Thrifted - Orig: Unknown.
Top: Cherokee @ Tesco.
Leggings: Primark.
Cardie: New Look.
Scarf: Gifted - Orig: H+M.

Then I had an Osteopath appointment last night! Didn't get a picture but also wore my trilby with this outfit!

What I Wore:
Skirt: Thrifted - Orig: Unknown.

October's chosen outfits!



Ok so here are just a few of the outfit's I liked best (and had time to take a picture of LOL) from the month of October!

I still really like thinking of ideas of different items of clothing to put together and seeing what works well for my slightly different body shape.

I think it's good for us Mum's to make an effort sometimes .. as most of the "normal" days are spent in comfy jeans, skirts and t-shirts with no make-up!

But when I know we are off out somewhere I like to put a bit more effort in :D Hope you like them!

Outfit Above:
Top: George @ Asda.
Jeans: Red Herring.
Boots: Avon.



Outfit Above:
Top: Cherokee @ Tesco.
Skirt: Thrifted - Originally: Red Herring.
Tights: Evie @ Peacocks.
Boots: Gifted.
