I'm lucky if I get out of the bloody salon without it smudging. I had a few gel manicures and then some tips for about a month and my nails were crap after. I've been using Nailoid cream and it's brilliant. My nails are much stronger and hardly break or split any more.
I'll try it, thanks. My nails look I've been digging in the garden at the moment.....
 
She doesn't think it is. It's an affront to all that is decent. :D

It's all because my grandma let me watch that Bette Lynch (vulgar!) on Corrie (vulgar!) on Granada (vulgar!) when I was a child.

I can tell you're looking forward to Xmas already. ;)

Hendo's parents never watched Granada either - until he got a job there and played pool in the bar with the cast of Corrie! :D
 
I tried on a pair of skinny(ish) jeans today. I've always mocked people who wear them but you know what. They were dead comfortable. I'm taking the other Mr Goit to the shop on Sunday so I can have his brutal opinion on the age old "does my bum look big in this" question. I'm actually worried about looking a tad top heavy. I've explained my concerns to him and he has promised to give the usual cutting opinion. Eek!
I figure seeing I've lost 30kg's now might be the opportune moment to embrace the new me.
I asked the northerner once whether my bum looked big in something, and he said 'well, your bum IS quite big'. He nearly didn't survive that one....
 
I just got a second-hand very long oatmeal coloured waistcoat*. Not high fashion but lovely and cheap and lovely and warm.

*maybe the word waistcoat is not the right one as it's down to a bit above my ankles.

what is the word for that if its not 'long waistcoat'? Google is not helping....:hmm:
 
Eyeshadow. I felt the need for BRIGHT.

Oh I forgot, I also bought some Barry M loose eyeshadow, because two violent pinks is not enough. I thought it was going to be glittery, but it's not really. I did wonder whether I'm too ancient and crepey to get away with shit like this, but I think it's ok. I was also pleased to find that lurid eyeshadow is not insanely expensive like all other makeup seems to be these days.

I have a bunch of pots of that in blue and green and glitter.... I'm blonde, so can't wear pink without looking like an albino rabbit.
 
View attachment 25920 View attachment 25919 I'm never quite sure what to wear underneath things, especially this latest top I bought.
There's plenty of see through cotton and knits with big holes in the stores atm.

I think the main problem is it's summer here and it's hot. These are designed to be summer tops and it's too hot to be wearing layers. So I don't want to wear a sleeveless singlet underneath but I don't really know what else to do.

What would you wear underneath (or not) this?

I'd probably rather wear it in winter with a long sleeved top underneath but that probably doesn't help you!

I've been looking for a Scaramanga satchel on eBay since my 'mulberry' bag died and have finally got one.

Most of the bags I find are Scaramanga style or go for silly money.

This one is used but in good condition so I got it for 31 quid plus postage. They're 99.50 new so I'm really chuffed.

Just hope it actually looks like the pictures when it arrives.

I had a top like that and I wore it with a fitted, strappy singlet. But this was England in the summer, so layers were fine. You could wear it with a nude bra?

FWIW I'd wear something sleeveless or strappy under it, and either chose it to match the top layer or to contrast very strongly with it. If relatively brave there's also the option of "nude" underwear.
