Chilled in Chinos

Pretty much spent my weekend as the title says, chilled out in chino's. i am really liking teal and tomato.. who'd have thought those two would go.
I find when i wear lots of dresses i do look forward to some trouser time. This weekend was spent at the park, dog walking and shopping. 
I had a horrible feeling this weekend that i may be getting old, reasons being:
I bought the new Newton faulkner album and have been listening to it non stop. My 9 year old step daughter sings all the songs word perfect. I sing along and get all the words wrong! i remember my parents doing that and thinking," Gaaawd they just don't get it"... yup i'm now that parent!
Secondly, a new supermarket (Sainsburys) opened just down the road and i was so excited!  Thats really sad isnt it!? Whats even worse was i really REALLY enjoyed my little jolly there and couldn't stop talking about how lovely the new Sainsburys is. 
So this weekend has made me conclude
a. I'm officially old
b. My life is quite pathetic.

Least im old and happy;)






Chinos: Topshop sale
Light knit: Next

Bag: Matalan
Glasses: c/o Firmoo

Couple of weeks ago Antonio of Firmoo ( the world's most popular online eyeglasses store where all fabulous four eyed people shop daarrling!)  contacted me and asked if i would like a new pair of specs. As an avid contact lens wearer i thought, heck yeh, i'll give it a go. And d'you know what? I LOVE them. They are wonderfully comfy and they arrived within 5 days with my prescription to a tee! They have some great styles and currently they are doing Free Glasses! If you are blind as a bat like me  and always a bit frugal with your well earnt cash or would just like to look realllllyy coool in some new specs  but dont want to spend loads , then go check them out! I'm already eyeing up this pink pair and i really need some prescription sunnies too, which i've been putting off... but no more!



So have you had a lovely weekend? Tell me the good stuff so i can live vicariously through you!! ;)

Mulling over Mullets

Hiya Lovelies

Well, thanks so much for all your kind words on my last post, that shall be named the disastrous week. But i have to tell you, all your lovely thoughts and positivity must have been sent my way as the shop called me today and told me they had found my phone under some of the fixtures and fittings!!! What are the odds of that???!! I feel so lucky.I went to the shop, got my phone and nearly kissed that lady!! i looked at all the photos (and started to take them all off to save!!) and realised what i had lost and how unbelievably lucky i am to have it back. There were lots of lessons learnt though, and i'm a firm believer of two things, 1. Law of attraction and 2. Everything happens for a reason! The world is a strange and marvellous place huh! 







Cardi,Skirt and Top: Clothing at Tesco on major sale!
Necklace: Half price at Boots
Shoes and bag: New Look

I have needed a nice comfy pair of black shoes for ages. I was delighted when i stumbled upon these when getting a Starbucks which is actually in New look!(lethal i tell ya) It was shoe heaven. They are really comfy! And in return for buying these babies i gave 4 pairs to charity. Good shoe karma i like to think!
And the mullet skirt, jurys still out on this one for me at the moment. It was only £5 so gave it ago, but just not sure, they seem a bit weird to me. It feels fancy pants and maybe im just not a fancy pants type girl ;)
Well thank you again lovelies for stopping by. Have yourselves a cracking day xxx
