25.11 outfits and award

Mid-week brings more miserable weather and a couple of mediocre outfits from me,
my cold, which seemed to be on its way out has ramped up a notch and I haven't felt like doing much at all.

Yesterday I wore:

to do nothing much at all, really!

The lovely Dena passed on this award/tag to me, and I've finally got around to sharing it (sorry for the delay Dena!)
I love this girl, not only does she have my dream job, she is also a complete sweetheart and totally stunning.

That cat t-shirt is soo cute, and I'm not even a cat person! Loved reading your answers, you should send in a video to New Look TV on Youtube as they give you a £10 voucher! I did one the other day, slightly nerve-wracking but worth it as I get to do even more shopping! Thanks for all your lovely comments!

Before I even get my post up, I had to come here & thank you: to think that even tho you're feeling bad, you take the time to visit my blog & comment - I'm so grateful. You're just a lovely lovely person. As Kate Moss said in that infamous recently online interview - the part that WASN'T quoted - was that she thinks the secret of being beautiful is just being a nice person. And you're clearly both!

Love that look, the black cat tee and ruffled skirt with tights and those gorgeous boots makes a silhouette that I've always loved: it's kind of early Edwardian era.. .I can't explain. Photos I've seen of women in around 1918, 1920, when skirts were getting shorter but there was still a Victorian edge to things.. I could see you in a black and white photo with a large hoop. And the boots would have buttons on them.

Better get back to work.. just came to say FEEL BETTER SOON & enjoy this snuggly, feeling like crap time. I had it for a few weeks, it's an important time, creatively: you just shut the world out and go inward, and re-group. And, like a pro, you're still posting! ; )

xoxo

Becca said...

May Kasahara said...
