Playing Catch-up.

I'm sorry I've been a bad blogger again. I've had good intentions, taking photos ready to post but never seemed to find the time.
This is a short but sweet one to share with you a few outfits that I was particularly pleased with.
This was taken on my 30th birthday last week. can't actually believe that I'm now "In my Thirties" but I'm taking it quite well I think.

The weather has been really gorgeous this week and I've been trying out some new clothes that I bought from Tesco.
Cardi - £5
Shorts - £12
Both Tesco













Again from Tesco,
Cardi - £5
Shorts - £12
Top - £5
I've not worn shorts since being at school (quite some time ago then!) but I decided to give them another shot as they are more practical than a short skirt and suit my lifestyle better.

I'm really pleased at how flattering they are and how comfortable I felt.
It's so great that a whole other area of outfit possibilities has been unlocked but I feel resentful of those years that I missed out due to confidence issues.
Are there any styles of clothing you would never consider trying, or have you, like me rediscovered something you'd once ruled out?

    The dress in the 1st pic is fab, think that was the one you got from Republic? I've not worn shorts, even on hol, for about 20 years but might think about giving them a go. x
