For the third year running I'm taking part in A Buyer's Archive inspired by Elise (who has sadly stopped blogging but can be found on Instagram instead), to keep track of my spending on clothes and accessories. THIS YEAR I had a very enjoyable charity shop rummage with Sophie and Kezzie early in the month, we all had a successful day of shopping....
The third item in my wardrobe to gain the #30Wears Badge of Honour is possibly one of the most boring items I own! They've only been seen on the blog once before in a capsule wardrobe montage. These Gap boyfriend cords were purchased in March 2018 for just £6.49 from ebay. They're pre-loved. I reach for these on days when I know I'm...
November 17th was the chosen day for Photo An Hour this month. As with last month I didn't realise until I was scrolling through my Instagram feed at lunchtime but my morning was pretty standard. Weekends don't really hold the same meaning for me as Andy always works and as a self employed person the working week doesn't really exist. I work as...
My birthday always starts early in the day. Andy wakes me up with a cuppa at about 6am and hands me a pile of presents. Once opened he hurries me out of bed so we can have our traditional birthday breakfast in a cafe in a nearby village. It was filled with workmen starting their day with a fry-up and a good strong...
I've been wanting to write a post about the charity shops in Ipswich for ages. The perfect opportunity to gather photos was on a Saturday when I met up with Sophie and Kezzie for a day of charity shop rummaging. We visited all the clothing charity shops in the town centre (we skipped the furniture and electrical shops). There are others on the...
The first Saturday in October I went along to the Hemingstone Flower Show, but I've already talked about that here. On the Sunday I made progress with decorating the bedroom. I did all of the cutting in, which isn't my favourite job. The room has three windows and an open built-in wardrobe to navigate, so it took a while. The evening followed a...
The morning of October 27th went by in a flash and I hadn't realised that it was Photo An Hour until lunchtime. I'd spent the morning pottering, doing housework and bits and bobs so the photos wouldn't have been very exciting anyway. 1pm I sat down for a pre Afternoon Tea snack. Knowing I was going to be eating lots of delicious sweet...
For the third year running I'm taking part in A Buyer's Archive inspired by Elise (who has sadly stopped blogging but can be found on Instagram instead), to keep track of my spending on clothes and accessories. THIS YEAR The pre-loved stuff. I really like all of my pre-loved purchases. The grey jumper, £3.75, has lovely long arms, as does the stripe top,...
These outfits show the temperatures getting lower as the month of September progressed. I started in a short dress with short sleeves, and towards the end of the month I was wearing huge scarves. To be fair the weather has been wonderful. But the temperatures did start to dip at the end of September, and we had some cool winds to take the...
