Wore this double denim outfit on Sunday over to my parents house for tea!!

Didn't do a lot else on Sunday other than relax as I was tired after going to the football club on Saturday for the opening of the new bar :D

On Monday I had an appointment with my consultant at the hospital .. we ended up waiting nearly an hour and a half in the waiting room (ouch and yawn) But all was good with Bumpkin so I don't really care :D :D :D

Talking of waiting - I tried to upload this blog several times tonight .. one attempt took around 40 mins and then I gave up .. memory sticked my pics and moved to laptop!

One of the reasons that my Internet has suddenly stopped working is that we have had a shuffle round with our rooms, moving one of the office desks up to the main bedroom for me to do my hair and make up on as I can no longer sit on the floor to do so ...

And we have moved the computer into a spare room, so that when the new furniture arrives it can go straight into the old office!

Why that means I have lost wireless connection I don't know!!!

What I Wore:

Skirt: Thrifted and Gifted - Mum (Orig Pilot).

Top: Primark.

Cardie: George @ Asda.

Boots: Barrett's.

Have also been having fun looking back over my past blog entries - love looking at the diff outfits and how they were put together, and the memories attached .. do you do this???

Thursday for work I continued my Jungle theme (albeit tamed down a little .. just a growl rather than a full on roar ;P)

Our topic this term at school is the Jungle so it was rather apt! (Look out for a special post in a few weeks time :D)

Went shopping after work for a few bits and ended up spending faaaar to much - oops, but in my defense I was stocking up on essentials too!

And somehow a gorgeous maxi dress jumped on in the basket ;P I forgot to take a sneaky peek pic though - so you will just have to wait a little while longer! (It's worth it - in my opinion anyway ;P)

What I Wore:

Tee: Cherokee @ Tesco.

Waistcoat/Cardie: Primark.

Trousers: Gifted - Orig Mothercare.

Shoes: Barrett's.

Scarf: Gifted - Parents.

Once again have a fabulous weekend my gorgeous blogger friends!

There are worse things I could do .. And October Round-Up!

2010-11-01T21:24:00.009Z

I didn't get to go to a H'ween party or dress up this year, so I decided instead to do another TV and Film Challenge!

One of my fave films growing up had to be Grease - Gosh only knows how many time's I have actually seen the film - billions!

I used to watch it every time it was on the TV, my friend had a copy taped off the TV that we would watch on a Sunday round at hers. And then when we got a VCR it was the first movie I bought!

I had the soundtrack, knew all the words, would act it out, dress as "vamp" Sandy and even imagined I would marry someone called Danny or Michael (Grease 2!!!) :D

I always liked the Character of Rizzo - she had something about her!

I loved the way she and Marty dressed, the tighter skirts, belts and Pedal Pushers!

So I decided she would be my inspiration for the outfit :D

What do you think?

What I wore:

Dress: Zoe @ Fashion Factory.

Leggings: Florence and Fred.

Shoes: Tesco.

Earrings: Claire's Accessories.

And to make it a little more Halloweeney (New word .. made up by me!) my Spider Earrings ;D

Sheepy also dressed up for H'ween :O

How scary huh???

I'm a bad blogger - I know, I know!

I haven't been around much again this week - I am sorry! I'm having a few health issues again at the moment - plus since I've been working every day (still part time) but not two days a week like before - I'm struggling a bit with tiredness etc....

I am off work this next week so will try and update my blog with pictures - starting (hopefully) from tomorrow!

Hope that everyone is still OK out there? And I'll try to catch up soon ...

Love Sal xXx

Ha Ha's!
