Today is the day where I finalise my resolutions, go pottering and generally try not to dwell of the year that wasn't.
The snow we had on the ground has long gone, replaced with mist and dreary grey skies,
so I counteracted that with a bright outfit!
I love this dress, it was given to me by a friend and it always makes me happy. The different coloured spots means it lends itself well to many a colour tights, but green remains my favourite.
You can also better see the cardigan I bought on boxing day. I have lived in this since. I'm tempted to go back for the cream one too, though me and cream is just a disaster waiting to happen!
My only other sales buy so far is a gorgeous leopard print skirt from River Island which I plan to wear very soon!
Tomorrow = a look back at the year
Saturday = a lie in, and a resolutions post.
Are you ready to embrace 2011? What's been your high and low point of 2010?

I absolutely adore that dress. Coloured tights rock!

You look wonderful in that dress :)
okay, let me think. I don't think I had a high point this year, at least I can't remember having one. My low point this year definately was my uncle's death.
Well, I can't wait for 2010 to be over. Hope 2011 will be much better.
I didn't buy much in the sales either.
Xx:)
that dress is great, goes perfectly with those tights! i think 2011 will be a fab year for you Laura x
Such a cute dress. My low as my dad being sick and my high was the amazing two weeks me and my bf spent in Thailand.

What a great outfit! Love the colors:)
Can't wait for the year too be over. The first half of 2010 was quite good, but after that it was downhill, hoping for another positive turn of events in 2011.
Hope you'll have an amazing and easier year! And a fun NYE:)
Yup, we have dreary, miserable skies here in London as well. Your dress is perfect for brightening up the days!
Hope everyone, especially yourself, has an amazing 2011!
I like your ethos of dressing up brightly on a dull day :)
Definitely ready for a new year and new start. My 2010 was actually brilliant til November so I feel a bit of a fraud saying that, but still... Here's to a much happier and healthier new year! xxx
That's a wonderful dress! :)
I have work to get done but it shall be slow going and I shall start thinking about my resolutions :)
What a fantastic dress and equally fantastic friend for giving it to you~!
My low was probably getting over my ex but high when was when my Mum got the all clear after breast cancer.
Have a lovely New Year!
xXx
That dress is so fun and pretty. I love it. You'll be fine in a light color, just don't paint any houses in it ;)
My high point was my graduation this year but my low point when my grandma died :( But that's life. There aren't just high points. I will have a lie in too on saturday :D
The dress and tights are so lovely, you really do wear tights the best. Love the necklace also xx
Those tights rock lady :)
High points... renewing my vows... low points... having to use a wheel chair a lot of the time now.
Happy new year :) xx
Wonderfully colourful outfit, perfect tonic for these grey days.
Low point? Loosing my beloved Mum.
