Black & White Shirt Dress for Shopping.

Hi my friends, how are you all?

I’ve had a great weekend starting on Friday when I went to my usual ballroom class. We finished off learning the Rumba and I have to say it’s another wonderful dance that’s quite hard to get right as the technique is rather tricky. It’s been a three wheeler, although I missed the second installment when I was at a party for my friends 60th last week! 
On Saturday after a few hours in the garden - tackling the dreaded hedge again, we were out for my BIL’s surprise 60th party. His daughter put on an amazing evening with some delicious picky food and plenty of drinks. You’d have thought I’d have learned my lesson from the previous weeks party but yet again I had a few too many and felt really tired on Sunday morning, so much so I didn’t get up until 11 and even then it was a slow day ending with dinner at my daughters! Her husband cooked a tasty roast lamb dinner with trimmings. I’ve started a keto diet again (I lost two stone before Covid hit, but it’s slowly piled on again!) so I enjoyed the meat and veg with one small roast potato! I’m only a week in but so far it’s going well! I’ll be sharing the maxi dress I wore on Thursday, you can tell me if you think it might need shortening!

I thought I’d show an outfit I wore shopping last week, I knew I’d be trying stuff on so wanted an easy-to-change-in-and-out-of outfit. Do you like what I picked?

Casual Combo - #Chicandstylish #Linkup



Hello, how are you?
Is your week going well and how’s your preparations for Christmas going?

I managed to wrap all the presents I’ve bought so far  yesterday and got the my Christmas cards written and posted the day before, so things are going quite well for me. Do you send cards? All my daughters have been really helpful as well, so I’m not too stressed this year. I do hope that continues! 🙏

I’m out on Saturday night with friends for dinner with a band, so there might be some dancing too. We’ve decided to exchange our secret Santa gifts then too. We’ve not managed to get away this year which is a shame, but you can read about our trip to Baden Baden last year here
I’ve got a super sparkly pair of trousers to wear which I plan to team with a silky short sleeve top and sparkly shoes, I’ll share the look when I can, I do hope it looks okay. 👌 

I’ve been otherwise occupied over the past few days so today I’m sharing this casual combo with you. ❤️🖤🤍
