Weekend Pics

Nice to have a change of scenery for today's picture, Alan decided he would take over photographer duties for today. Been for a lovely walk down the canal towpath with the children and have very little planned for this afternoon, might go and do some window shopping and investigate the new Next that has opened near me.

Book Hunt

Chilling out this weekend, I do need to go on a hunt for a decent sized bookshop though. It's the one thing my town is really lacking. Managed to get an enormous blister on Thursday from the green shoes so giving my poor foot a rest with some flipflops today.

Rejected!

Well, college enrollment did not go well, I am overqualified and now have to rethink my options. Very frustrating. The small people have broken my scales at home so I can't tell properly but think I have lost weight because I now have to hold my jeans up with something. Today I have a scarf tied round like a belt. Changing shape/size is really annoying because I can't wear things I love. Good excuse for more shopping though!

Tank Tops


I was looking through some old pictures and came across some real fashion nightmares that I used to wear and love. Might even put together a post of some of these monstrosities. It made me think, I remember as a child that tank tops and flares were the height of bad taste (I am a child of the 80s!). Funny how it all comes round again and here I am in a tank top! Couldn't resist another outing for the new boots.

Bargain Boots

My 50p bargain ebay boots arrived today. They are awesome! I've not tried rolling these jeans to make crops but it seems to work. They don't fit all that well, I have trouble with cheap jeans because the waist is always too big if it will go round my hips, must go on the hunt for some more Next ones which just fit so much better.

Watched a Panorama on Primark and child labour in India last night and was relieved to hear that boycotting was not the answer.
