A confession: I'm sat here with a couple of chocolate brioche and watching Gok having binned Jillian during the warm up before the end of the first circuit.
and guilty
. I wish I had just the teensiest amount of you ladies' restraint. Awed by your willpower in particular, LTEC, no bread since October
!! You have definitely earned a little of what you fancy.
I think that is what I would need to do to get my weight to where I want it to be but .... nope, can't muster the strength. Plus my skin has stretched so badly on my tummy that surely it would look worse without the padding?
I had a crappy day at work on Friday and DH booted me out of the house yesterday so that he could get on with some work, so I had the unusual experience of shopping when I didn't really want to. Came away with two grey T-shirts and some deodorant for DH! But a trip around Harrods with a pram in the sales (was I mad) must compensate a little bit for lost Shredding calories?
I did try on the DVF wedges though. Admittedly they are ridiculous but they are beautiful and do wonders for my legs. I was wearing a gray sweater dress with grey tights and clocked a rather unattractive middle aged guy ogling my pins as I wobbled around. Actually they were much lighter and definitely more comfortable than I'd expected, having never worn wedges before. Do any of you ladies have anything with that type of shape? Where do you wear them?
Saw the most beautiful, stunning boy in Jack Wills though. Felt like a complete perv, he was probably only 17 but wow. Couldn't stop looking.
I did manage a little bit of shopping online when I came home: how about for the most unattractively presented jeans you've ever seen! I've tried hidden hills (with their 'bottom bra'
!) on before in Selfridges so I'm pretty confident that they'll be good.
So much to catch up with on here!
DT I prefer the LKB too but like even more the leopard version - 'Wilder' I think it's called. Too scared to link here as I keep losing this post!
Carciofi I've had the yellow version of that Crumpet scarf in my basket since I discovered that yellow was a good colour on me. Thanks for the tip off about Elle, I have duly subscribed.
Everything it really must be a strange time for you. Have you some nice things in your diary to look forward to once you've moved? A few distractions won't go amiss? Love the decadent approach to Sunday dressing, you sound fab-u-lous! Sorry I may have had too much Gok...
LTEC I am losing a neighbour!! Am very sad about the lost potential meet ups but it's so clearly the right decision. Time en famille is so precious, and I have know you have the get up and go to make it work. You can be a City girl in 20 minutes - takes me longer than that from here! Do you go to Matches when you are there? Have to say that I find the place absolutely terrifying.
Tracey my parents regularly regale me with tales of the time they took me to a Beefeater for my 4th birthday and was apparently so badly behaved that they didn't attempt another family restaurant trip for about 5 years!!
This post is already far too long so I will leave you stylish ladies in peace. Mwah!
