My new years resolution this year is to make more effort with my appearance. Who wants to join me?

[TrampyPants]

I've never really worn make up, styled my hair or bothered with how I look. That was fine when I was young and fresh. Now I'm 34 (nearly 35) and I want to look good. I have just tried to curl my hair (and failed) and sorted out my make up, throwing out stuff that doesn't suit me.

morning all; the washing and housework has reached crisis point so I'll be wearing 'leisure wear' in my defence I do do Pilates in them usually until iv done some washing then I'll be looking for a top to go with very comfy skinny black next jeans and boots to help at the school this pm x

Didn't manage to get back on here last night but I had a lovely long bath and then slathered myself in body lotion.

Skin felt so lovely and soft this morning!

Today's outfit is a long sleeved purple dress from warehouse (£10 down from £38 in the sale!) with a black belt - never wear belts but it came with the dress and actually looks quite nice :)
Black opaques
My kurt Geiger shoes but going out later so will swap for my black knee highs
Black cardigan

I want to get out of wearing a cardigan every day but not sure what the alternative would be?
