New thread for a new month! Everyone is doing so well, we are forming some great habits and, hopefully, feeling better for it.
some good links:
How To Be Groomed thread
Discount Make-up and Toiletries
Cheap Smells
Fragrance Direct
Xtras Online
Look Fantastic
Its also worth joining groups like wowcher and Groupon for discount manicures etc.
Baby steps are the way forward, and if you fall off the wagon and have a pj day (or week) its ok, just jump back on. We want to take more pride in our appearance, make an effort. As one poster said, "we think there's no point making an effort if we are just at home with our DP's and DC's, but they are the most important people in our lives - why not act like it?" I certainly feel better, my self-esteem is higher and I have more confidence.
All welcome.

Ah Engels thats nice 
The chubby stick sounds good - drives me mad when hair sticks to my lipgloss, hence I never wear it anymore! I'll have to have a look in town when Im paid. Which is bloody weeks away
Trampy - thanks for the links, Ive never looked at those websites before so I've bookmarked them, again for payday 
So it seems my feet will be doing okay, but the rest of me will have to wait lol
Yay, a new thread!
Today I am wearing jeans and a black long sleeved scoop neck top, with black flat knee high boots and a chunky green wooden necklace. Will be adding a black wool coat to go out later to watch DS1 and DS2 play hockey, along with a chunky cable knit mustard hat and scarf in attempt to avoid pneumonia!
Make up is a light foundation (No7 Intelligent Colour), eyebrow pencil, mascara, brown eyeliner, nude lip liner and sheer lipstick (No7 Sheer Temptation). Nails are still Shellac-ed in a muted purple, with little flowers on my ring fingers.
Still having second thoughts about what to wear tonight to the cinema, I may just see how cold I get watching the hockey.
Also a friend who has a similar style to me but has put on weight having her two daughters has offered me some of her "old" clothes as she can't see herself fitting back into them anytime soon and she thinks they will fit me. It will be nice to have a little bit more choice in my wardrobe!
Guy, swings and roundabouts, isnt it?
Engel, glad you like them. are you in Holland?
Jemima, that sounds lovely, the scarf and hat in particular. you'll be very galm (and warm)
Yep, sorry, over in the Netherlands. I always forget if I've said where I am when I join a new thread 
I need a Dutch emoticon - clog or windmill perhaps
Hi Nick, its quite big, I wear a 6-8 and it was a little big on me so I think you'd be better with the 12-14, tbh
Engel
oops meant for working from home and then going to the pub , could I wear knitted to a meeting?
oooh, love that 'do! and you sound v dapper. if you can afford it and you want them, GO BACK AND GET THEM - YOU DESERVE THEM 
muddling - I do! Ive just ordered a few bits off the h an m website (found a code for £5 off and another for 25% off one item, and the most of the items were sale) yet I still feel guilty....
Are they on the website? Use the codes and that could make it easier?
