Not Seeing The Wood For The Trees

Happy Friday Folks,
Well i have nothing much to say today other than the usual, WOOHOOO its the weekend, bring on the food, heeheehee.



I wore this outfit to work on Tuesday, i think... 
I was only saying to Paul today how the days seem to be flying by at a ridiculous rate lately. Sometimes my head is so buried amongst accounts, payment dates and forward date planning for bill payments that i forget to actually register what the day is and to make the most of it. Kinda like not seeing the wood for the trees, my heads in the books looking for the end result that i cant see what's right in front of me, which in this case was actually some very beautiful woodlands :)

 Its been really refreshing just taking a break for a change and seeing the world, the trees are turning some beautiful shades lately and i can't help but look up!
Having said that, today we are having the worst torrential rain i have seen in a long time, which is just no fun :-(
Dress & Bag: New Look
Blazer: George @Asda
Brooch: Vintage
Boots: Tesco


 I bought this dress weeks and weeks ago and it just hung there, looking at me and for some reason i just didn't really feel much in the mood to wear it, i have no idea why! Its purple shade and swallow print are so pretty, and green tights are my new favourite!
Out of all my outfits Hubs actually LIKED this one... i know! That's gotta mean I'm doing something right (on the wife front at least!haha!)

So i will bid you farewell, and wish you a wonderful weekend ladies! 
Hope it's a productive fabulous one!

Easy Like Friday Morning...

EBEW - Back To School


UPDATE: adding this to this months EBEW as it is my favourite preppy look! Hope you like it!!

Hellooo lovelies, welcome to friday! And for us Brits a long Bank holiday weekend, aint that grand!










Shirt: Clothing at Tesco
Blazer: Matalan
Jeans & Brogues: Next
Bag (my laptop case) : Vintage, gifted from hubby
Specs: c/o Firmoo

Remember i mentioned the other day that i was actually in work doing really boring stuff. Well this was what i wore on that boring day, and i was going to say that its quite a boring outfit, for me. No brooches, bangles or bells;) just simple preppy style. I've been wearing this a lot lately. In-fact i've been living in these jeans and this blazer on and off all week. yesterday we had an appointment at the vets (Holly has a bady eye,bless her) and i swapped out the shirt for a simple red and white Breton top.
I think i've been craving me some simplicity. Life around us lately is pretty stressy and crazy so i think i've gone super simple with my clothing. And i've enjoyed it, a lot!
These brogues are now well and truly worn in and feel like slippers, i really wanna wear them with some cute dresses and tights to see if i can work that re mix... any suggestions for what to wear with Brogues?
Do you ever crave simplicity in your outfits?
As much as i enjoyed this, i've also been planning some major colour mixing ensembles, coming to a blog post real soon!
Right ladies, i'm off , got a humongous amount of work to do today, with the possibility of the in laws coming this weekend, some new business ventures to look in to and a huge mess to clean. On top of that i have the mother of all mother headaches... nice! Wish me luck...

Love to you all
