Inspired by @Nicole Moreland I tried a new colour combination today. It’s 8am and we are off to a 16th birthday outing, still not feeling great so hoping the colours will energise me and the flow of the dress will be comfortable but feminine. Boots, hair and makeup to follow

Another hiking, working, lifting day, so comfy! However, I know a defined, high waist is most flattering on me, so I prioritized this look. And, hey, it’s not black! 😉

Sorry I thought I had this one up already - not sure now. Anyway this is a dress I bought in the sale for €15. I think the colours look very dull (although they’re much brighter in this photo), and not sure about the shape. Haven’t worn it very often yet. Dressed it up with earrings, necklace, ring and bracelet.

I am back in black again (honestly, I do love it), but I put my sweatshirt over my shoulder so that you can see that I WILL have color on when I go outside (plus, don’t you love the slippers ;)). Although this t-shirt does not have a lower neckline, which is ideal for me, it does hit me right at the waist, which I like. My joggers are high waisted. I’m really trying to merge style and lifestyle (today is work, walking, and lifting weights).

Keeping it real, I was pruning roses so put on my grubby garden gear. Of course , the rain soon arrived so this is what I wore the rest of the day. I wouldn’t buy the sweater now ( and might declutter this course) as it’s got too high a neck and isn’t fitted or intentionally big, just loose- ish. But the scarf sort of disguises the neckline so it’s ok for an at home day
