Dress c/o Goddiva
Boots c/o Shoe Zone
Necklace: Spain
More Tartan! In a more subtle form this time thanks to this gorgeous mini dress from Goddiva. I wasn’t too sure about how it’d look when I selected it but I followed my instinct and sized up for a more relaxed fit and it’s now one of my favourite dresses I own. I broke the “rules” a bit by adding black tights and boots but I loved how the all worked together and these trusty boots dress down the dress to reflect my “off duty” style.
With only two days until Christmas I must be the only person in the world excited to be heading in to work this morning, but after 6 weeks off sick and in constant pain I’m delighted to finally be at the point where I am fit to return and get my normal life back. I’m a person who loves to work and have missed my colleagues and patients dreadfully. Not being able to do what I usually do doesn’t sit well with me and ever since I could get out of bed on my own I’ve been itching to get back.
Things are mostly better. My left leg semi functions now and I’m in not as much pain, it’s still slow going though and hopefully seeing a neurosurgeon in the new year will help shed some light on prognosis and if it’s likely to happen again.
Phew, bit of a life ramble there. I’d best finish getting ready. My fob watch is being replaced by a festive brooch today and I’m tempted to initiate carol singing in the waiting room.
Bring it on!
What are you most excited about this week?

P.S. blogging will be slower this week with all the festive happenings and getting used to being back at work. I’m sure it’s the same for many of you so if this is the last post you read, have a good ‘un!
That blue tartan Godiva dress looks fantastic on you. You coordinated your outfit beautifully. The shades of blue of your dress and hosiery complement the red colour of your hair as does your pretty and perfectly done blue eyeshadow.

I’m so glad that you’re feeling a little better and you’re able to get back to normal life again. Being ill can be so frustrating, be sure to take it a little easy though sweet! I hope you have an amazing Christmas if I don’t talk to you again before then <3 <3

I love tartan and it looks amazing on you. Wow Laura I have been saying recently that I must be the only person excited and happy about working right up until Christmas, but now I’ve found someone else. I’m just crazy and love my job that much. I’m actually going to miss it over the next week. I hope you’re ok and in less pain and everything will be ok for you.
Love your dress 🙂 Merry Christmas 🙂
