I can't believe I'm doing this!!!

Second post of the day!  I've just come back from my friend Sarah's - she needed help eating the cakes she had made - I was completely selfless in volunteering to help.  Victoria sponge and coffee and walnut cake. Mmmmmmmmm yummy!  Anyway the talk inevitably came round to what we're wearing tomorrow night for our Girlie Christmas Supper.  It ended with Jane and I raiding Sarah's wardrobe and trying on her clothes.  I tried on two lovely dresses!

Anyway I thought I should come home and go through my own wardrobe and try on a few outfits.  And - stupidly and stone cold sober, although I have just poured myself a glass of wine - I'm going to post the photos for all to see.  I've got crappy underwear on (luckily you can't actually see it), my hair looks like I've been pulled through a hedge backwards at least twice and I have no make up on so go easy on me.

Here goes!!!

I actually tried this on and posted before - for supper at Claire's although I didn't wear it on the night.  I like it better today.  I think it's a contender.  It's Rich's favourite too.


I actually love this dress.  I bought it recently from Monsoon.  Oooohhhh get me!!! I think of it as a daytime dress but I really like it and it's very easy and comfy to wear.


I thought this would look nice but it doesn't really does it???!!!


I love this top but it doesn't look very nice in the photo.


Princess loves this outfit!!!  I like it too although it's not a very flattering angle.

So what do you think???  What shall I wear tomorrow night?  Or do I need to go back to my wardrobe and look again?!!!

Saturday Night Supper

Last night I went to my friend Jane's for supper along with three other friends.  We had a fab evening, lush food, lots of wine and even more laughs!  I wore my burgundy/wine coloured Gok straight jeans - again - and my Joules hunting shirt.  Doing this blog has made me realise that the saying "you wear 20% of your wardrobe 80% of the time" is true.  I'm very aware now that I wear the same things on a regular basis.

I looked through my wardrobe last night and tried a few things on that I hadn't worn for a while but ended up going back to my favourites!

At supper Heather - who also usually avoids dresses - was telling us that she had seen a dress in Monsoon that she had coverted for weeks and finally went to buy it only to find it didn't fit her.  She was gutted because she loved the dress.  I know that feeling.  I saw Myleene Klass in the newspaper wearing a dress from her own range and just thought - that's so me - only to find that it's sold out in all sizes except size 20.  Gutted!!!
This is said dress.  I just love it.  Anyway in order to be more interesting with my wardrobe I have ventured into the loft and returned with four dresses.  My dresses live in the loft due to lack of use.  So they are currently hanging in my bedroom and I am determined to wear one next Saturday for supper at Claire's.  Now I've said that I guess I'm actually going to have to do it.  I'm feeling uncomfortable already.  I will try them on tomorrow and see if that makes me feel any better???!!!

I have to say the Myleene Klass range of dresses is really nice but others must agree as most of them are out of stock.  I like the following ones too:



I've had such a naughty week of eating and drinking this week so from tomorrow I'm off the wine, on the diet and out there running.  Wish me luck!!!
