Co-Ord from M&S - Chic & Stylish Linkup

Morning all. 
How are you my friends?

Mixed weather here as always, yesterday was beautifully sunny but the wind was up, the day before was positively horrible - very overcast and drizzly.  I had my hygienst appointment, which was wonderful - my teeth have looked so much brighter and cleaner since - it's totally worth the cost!
Gym classes as usual, which I'm really enjoying atm.  I go from hating the classes to not being able to get enough and wanting to go to more!  My classes include, spin, pilates, Body Attack and Legs, Bums and Tum's.  I do two on Monday and two on a Wednesday which works for me because it actually takes so much time out of the day.  I'd go everyday if I'm honest, but it doesn't leave much time for anything else!

You will remember I told you about a co-ord I picked from Marks & Spencer on Monday. Well I thought you’d like to see it featured today.

January Review.

Hiya. 
How are you?

Hope you’ve had a great weekend and welcome to the first post of February. 
Had a lazy day yesterday after a lovely night with friends on Saturday. I had a few too many drinks and suffered on Sunday, so much so I hardly did anything and ended up having a takeaway. 
I’m excited for the brand new month and hope to see more Spring styles filtering into the shops. I bought a lovely co-ord from the M&S website and although I’ve not even tried it on I know it’s a “me” look. You’ll be the first to see it when I share the black and grey checked skirt and top which is a stretchy chiffon-esque fabric. 

So another new month to enjoy. The first signs of spring have already arrived here. There’s daffodils down the road and the hedges are sprouting shoots, so along with the evenings becoming slightly lighter, I know it’s just around the corner although I’m still prepared for cold, wet weather with the odd much appreciated sunny days that appear every so often. ☀️

The first Monday of the new month always means sharing a reminder of what I was doing and wearing last month, welcome to the January Review. 

I love wearing red as I feel it brightens everything up including my mood. It’s a good colour for positive feelings and making everything happier. Head over to this post to read how my grey, layered look evolved.
