The New Look near my work seems to be a sale treasure trove - I've got so many absolute steals from there lately! Considering I'm trying to save money though, I really need to stop wandering in there on my lunch hours. I mean, £12 for a dress isn't going to break the bank but it is an excuse I use kind of a lot. Hey, this is week 85 of Friday Frocks - I use that excuse a HELL of a lot. The dress is quite baby shower-y (I feel like floral prints are eminently suitable for this kind of thing) but not very hot weather-y, being that kind of material that just seems to make you warmer. Eh, you win some, you lose some. Pass the vodka jellies. Who has vodka jellies at a baby shower, you ask? MY FRIENDS.
(I hasten to add the pregnant friend was not consuming vodka jellies, just encouraging others to do that).
Everything from New Look
The dress then saw me through an evening of rum and Eurovision. You know, I was never a fan of Jedward, but I feel like Eurovision is their natural home. They had a water feature and then GOT ALL UP INSIDE IT. What a show. What a show.
Anyway. What are you up to this weekend? 4 Days! BAM! I am mainly doing the whole family and friends thing, and also a day trip to Poole. Yes, plans have been made, but crucially, they are plans that fit around sleeping a LOT. Vast amounts of sleeping are the way forward, I feel.
PS - When writing this post and halfheartedly livetweeting the Matrix, I asked for volunteers to write this for me. Amy obliged:

I love you more. Oh, look - you do look cute! I was so right!
ReplyDeleteLove this dress on you, the colour looks great with you hair. Totally agree about fugly free belts, but like what you did here! xx
ReplyDeleteI love you two.
ReplyDeleteVery cute! That babyshower sounds much for fun than ones I've been to. The last one I went to had an ann summers party which just seemed wrong! Mini-cheese burgers! I'm veggie, but anything mini when it comes to food just seems so much more appealing! Have a great bank holiday weekend. I'm a teacher so I have a week off if I ever get through the crazy pile of marking, planning and assessment I brought home! x
ReplyDeleteYou look amazing, I love the matching hair accessory!

For some strange reason, I misread that last bit as 'looking nice in a puddle' instead of 'nice in purple'. I slightly love the alternative my brain provided me with there. Oh dear...
ReplyDeleteHahaha, I do the same thing. A belt is always a hair ribbon! This purple one looks lovely against your flaming locks.
