minnie.


(WEARING: headscarf - length of velvet fabric ; shirt - h&m ; tie - length of lace ; shorts - altered trousers from charity shop.)

I know the other day I said about not wearing black at this time of year... but today I couldn't resist. I feel like Minnie Mouse in this spotty shirt and velvet bow.

I have SO much to do today, but I've done pretty much nothing apart from raid a couple of charity shops and have lunch with my best friend. It was great to see him. I really needed it :)

Now I'm sitting around hoping I can make it over to the bay to see my girls, but it's looking pretty unlikely :( I'm also hoping the boys will be coming down to the pub so I can trot down and hopefully not have to buy any drinks for myself, considering I only have enough for one beer.

So not ready for Christmas in 2 days... oh well!
