So the rest of us can shamelessly copy be amazed by your shopping prowess!!!!! May also enourage those of us trying to de-frump!

I went shopping today and brought a cute blouse thingy from H&M - in dark purple (trying to break my black habit), short capped sleeves, a few flat ruffles at the top with some small black buttons down the front! Not smock style but great for disguising muffin tops!

Oh God. Seriously it is my favourite shop.

Three girls helped me chose for 1/2 an hour between plum, red and brown bag.

She was so nice she said I hope you don't hate Liberty if it's the wrong choice.

I said.. I could never hate Liberty.

Going back for more soon. When parents come from o/s I take them to Liberty.

Anyway am waffling.... they have 15% off soon if you have their loyalty dooda card....

Link, will see if it exists somewhere.
