James, I am thinking about wearing the Peak District.

Getorf - agree re scarves. You can't go wrong.

See my post above Riven. A steal at £85. Although, they are out of stock at the moment, you will have to get in line.

Crikey - the number of ways people can judge you that I never even thought about.
In the last week or so I have learnt that:

I am beyond the pale for having and using a toilet brush.

I am a social outcast for sending round robin Christmas letters (never mind all my friends do too, we all enjoy then and NOONE boasts about their kids - the ones who did got dropped off the list years ago).

Now I'm an unimaginative sod (nice) because I wear the same jewellry every day.

Good grief.

I wear my wedding and engagement ring and that is it jewellery-wise for me. Yes EVER. I don't have pierced ears, I don't like necklaces or bangles. I don't like other rings either.

I just don't do jewellery. Think it makes me look overdone tbh.

MsFox - thankyou for that

Actually - I think its nice she wore the same necklace every day on Playschool. Children notice and appreciate details like that. It's a security thing

HuwEdwards - my (not totally serious) point exactly! I thought I did but now I'm starting to wonder. Maybe they only keep up with me so they can laugh later Xmas Smile

You should do a day by day diary of what you wear, just to teach us where we are going wrong Peppa.

AIBU to think people who change their jewellery every day are shallow and have too much spare time on their hands?

I occasionally change my earrings, and add a costume necklace on special occasions. But otherwise, I wear the same rings and necklace every day as they are very special to me. And I really have no time to stress about accessories.
