casual day in the office as no client meetings today, so
black leggings tesco £6 (might have been cheaper)
Black biker style boots tesco £19
Black tunic top/short dress ebay £4
Blue zebra print cardigan from m&s but stolen from my sister so free Grin
Knickers m&s £7
Bra bravissimo £32
so clothes wise not a great deal £68, not included jewellery, i am wearing 2 charm bracelets and two silver ball bead style bracelets and a black onyx beaded bracelet, probably over £1000 though, scarey thought as dont think about it at the time, but the beaded bracelets were around £100 each and the charm bracelets one was £55 then the beads/charms and the other was £250 then plus charms/beads. I think i should spend more on my clothing!
I'm usually in formal office attire from places like Hobbs, John Lewis, fairly dull but easily accessorised skirts or dresses with jackets or more fitted style dresses with smart cardigan.
