Please excuse my long pauses between posts lately guys, i have been bogged down with the joyous task of packing and organising this dreaded move. I hope to resume normal programming as soon as we are settled, but just to forewarn, there may even be some severe internet-less times ahead for me (eek) so if it is a little quite round here bear with me and know that i am truly missing you all ;-)
It's been very casual on the clothes front to, i mean what do you wear to pack boxes and get filthy dirty and run tedious errands? Well it's mostly been boyfriend jeans and tees or leggings and huge oversized sweaters which i will save you the site of as it ain't too pretty let me tell you. When it comes to big things like moving i am so impatient, i just want to click my fingers and have it all done already. But, i know this is going to be a long drawn out process and i have to really put my patient hat on... i think lost that hat years ago....:(
I have tried to stay organised and kept out a few outfits, just incase and my uniform of course, for work. I have to say it's quite nice opening my wardrobe and seeing such a minimal amount there, making it so easy to decide what to wear, cos really there's no decisions to be made.. Are you ever tempted to get rid of A LOT of what you own, to simplify? I have to say with this move, i have been very tempted. And then it scares the crap out of me and i just keep it all instead, lol. So far i have 10 huge bags of clothes that are coming with me to the new house, and then there's the summer clothes still to come as they are in storage still at the moment. I think one day i would love to live with a capsule style wardrobe, with a handful of key pieces that work well with each other, no stressing of what to wear of a morning, simple style, get ready and go. Paul and i have talked about when we retire living on a Barge on the water :) being such small living quarters would definitely mean i would have to down size. But for now i shall continue with my ridiculous amount of clothes and see where that takes me, i know right #thirdworldproblems can you say spoilt brat?!
The problem I guess for me is shopping is like a hobby, a fun pass time. But what do you do when you don't have enough room or the need for anything else? Answers on a postcard p-p-p-please!
Green Trench: Red Herring Via EBAY
Shirt: M&S
Flares: River Island
Boots: New Look
Bag: Primark
Hat: Matalan
So on that thought i guess i better continue packing and maybe consider a little more carefully what i intend on taking to the new (much smaller i might add) house...
Oh and if you celebrate it... Happy Easter!
If you don't, Happy Chocolate Egg Eating Day!
Hope you and yours have a wonderful weekend!
