Jumper: Miss Selfridge, Skirt: Matalan, Shoes: New Look

So last week saw as few clothes as possible and now this week we’re back in jumpers and layers; oh Britain, you do like to keep us on our toes.

This skirt re-affirms why I love Matalan so much! It was the fruits of my Bank Holiday shopping trip and cost a bargain £14! I quite fancy the Mint version that’s online too, but that wasn’t available in my store. In real life the Pink is a really subtle shade of neon…a perfect way to embrace the trend without being too full on.

In other exciting news I’ve got a holiday booked! I haven’t been away for *cough* seven years so I am beyond excited to be heading off to Spain on the 3rd August for 8 nights with a wonderful friend. For the first time in years all those swimwear displays and cheap and cheerful flip-flops are actually appealing.

Off to work for me though, I am doing a lot of split shifts at the moment; half day taking bloods and then half on reception, my poor brain can’t keep up! As long as I have no more fainters or sicky people I will be fine!

ALMOST FRIDAY
(and to celebrate I have an awesome giveaway coming up)
Long live short weeks.

  24. Very interesting article. Esp. the stands used to support the head. I would not have noticed it on my own. Will have to look carefully at old photographs to see this feature.
