I decided to work some metallics today as a total change from the soft neutrals of yesterday. Nothing like some Northern Ireland 'slegging'* to make you wish you hadn't planned to do blog photos at Toddler Group. There were only 2 usable photos as I was laughing so much!
(*teasing/winding up/bringing someone right back down to earth!)
Wearing my new H&M jeans that I picked up in Belfast yesterday for £10 in the sale. And yes, look closely - they are boot cuts - what's come over me?! My short black jacket is an oldie from Dunnes (similar) and my silver pumps are from Clarks (kind of similar).
Also wearing a metallic t-shirt that I picked up at my clothes swap in April. Later in the morning, I happened to be talking to one of the mums that had been to the clothes swap. Conversation went something like this - Cora: 'Wow, I have a t-shirt just like that - must dig it out again as it looks nice on you' Me: 'Cora, this IS your t-shirt - you swapped it!' How we laughed....... ok, maybe you needed to be there. Here's a close-up..
Love the metallics, you came off well in the clothes swap. Some very stylish mummies there, I want to know where her scarf is from, its beautiful.

Stop with the temptation Catherine!! You did enough of that on Monday :) x
DeleteI can see Mum of all Trades has beaten me to it - I love your friend's scarf!!! Three lovely glam mummies! Eve x
ReplyDeleteThanks Eve! I always make an extra effort on a Tuesday morning knowing those glam girls will be there too! Avril x
Deletewow, how cool to see Lucy Jaffa on your blog! gorgeous metallic outfit, I love that t shirt.
ReplyDeleteYou know Lucy? She's a dote and an amazing dresser - always looks so stylish. Thanks for the lovely comment, Avril xx
DeleteLove the necklace and scarf. My mum runs a toddler group at our local church and she is always sad to see mums leave in July.
ReplyDeleteThanks for dropping by....the ladies at the church were so sad to say goodbye to the twins. Those 3 years seem to have flown by, Avril x
DeleteSuper glam toddlers! Love the first photo with you laughing, you look so happy.
ReplyDeleteThanks Carrie! And as always, thanks for all the lovely mentions you give me on the deadwood - I really appreciate it Avril xx
DeleteGorgeous style!! Looks like you will have lots of free time come September:)

Lots of blogging time Anne and I might clean my house now and again too!! But mostly, will have to look for some paid work...sob! xx
DeleteJust when I though my wardrobe was complete! Off to Primark now
ReplyDeleteLet me know if you don't find one near you - now I know where you live I can send one to you! x
DeleteYou know what, I think I'm edging closer and closer to bootcuts again and think I will be working a pair into my A/W wardrobe.
ReplyDeleteI've decided you have to find the right flare at the bottom and of course the right length. My other ones are too wide and never look right on me. I like these ones though. Going to get in the longer leg for wearing with heels! x
DeleteLove your necklace, I can never cope with the Primarni queue to grab bargains like that! xxx

I know what you mean but I find if I get into it early in the morning when it's all tidy, it's so much easier to find stuff! Avril x
DeleteI love these photographs - they're really natural and fun.
ReplyDeleteYou can't beat a good well fitting boot cut like these and you will certainly not beat their price tag - what a bargain !

ReplyDeleteAh, they're all so lovely really...and lots of different styles at the group...such a friendly group. I'll miss it a lot. Thanks for dropping by Emma and for your lovely comment, Avril x
DeleteA momentous morning. The photos didn't turn out too badly - you'll have to send me copies! Xx
ReplyDeleteYou look gorgeous - and you could probably sell that scarf for a profit now, given all the interest on here! xx
DeleteI love the tee and the necklace!!
