New work clothes

God, I admit it! I look really really fat in these photos, but I´m not complaining...hehe! I got my new workclothes delivered to me by a nice guy from postal services at 7 this morning! And was I awake? Sadly....NO! But I did wake up when I had these trousers and the cute blouse delivered! The trousers are great because I decided to skip jeans, and these fit me and I love the high waist!

Just wish I had combed my hair before I forced my colleauge to take this picture! The clothes are from http://www.vivienofholloway.com/

Loosing a customer

Hmm...I´ve sort of promised myself not to be the kind of blogger who complains and nags about things...but this is a story I just have to share.
Got some money from my dear mother the other day, and decided to spend some before Xmas. After all it´s not like I´m going to get any X-mas pressies if I don´t buy them myself anyway! (And I know how it sounds, but it really wasn´t complaining hehe, I´ve only have three men in my close vicinity and they all hate the thought of pressies...and to be honest I´d rather not have things I have exchange anyway!)
So...anyway...I went down to the posh part of town, and decided to have a look in a little boutique I have never visited before. But this time I saw a lovely 50´s style circleskirt in wool that I thought might be just the thing I needed. So in I go...and there was just the proprietor (a young girl) and a woman, who was obviously her mom, sitting on a sofa.
After a stroll around the shop I realised there was no more skirt hanging in the shop, so I asked for it. "Well, I only buy one or two things of each garment, handpicked from Paris" the proprietor says "and that skirt is small". The last word was said with a distinct look at my voluptuous curves....
"Alright". Prepared to leave I turn around and the mother says "But she does have a small waist"....
Will I ever enter that shop again? Make a guess.
I´m not a small girl. I´m not huge either. I can just imagine what all the biggish girls out there have to put up with when shopping...Time to make a change and make shops realise that big girls can be beautiful too!!!

And on that note I went out today and got myself a new handbag, a secondhand fake fur and a new bra from What Katie did. Good for me!
