Shopping Disaster

I went shopping today - an increasingly rare treat for me, especially since I no longer have to worry about shoes - however strangely enough, I just couldn't decide what clothes worked for me. For some reason (other than chocolate cake), I'm not quite as svelte or even as adventurous as I thought I was.

I could feel waves of desperation wafting my way, and just at the point of panic, a young girl complimented on my fab purple boots. Not surprisingly these are my (for the moment) favorite Purple suede boots - which most of you might know as the GALA boots. I suddenly felt rather smug! There's obviously nothing wrong with my sense of style, or my waistline - I just need a few more pointers & some slight adjustments. This train of thought reminded me of a conversation with the 'Ever Fabulous Style Goddess - Caryn Franklin, who always makes dressing up seem so effortless.

A quick look at her website 'www.howtolookgood.com' got me on the right track, and I've pencilled in another shopping date next month. Will keep you posted!
Wrap up warm!
