Tuesday is the day for compiling menus for the week
then writing the shopping list for our regular Wednesday
trip to our local market at Bacup.
It was bitter cold so the snow boots I’ve had for years came out,
I layered up with a full length vintage petticoat and thick tights.
My sweater came from our lovely friend Vix and my skirt is from
an Instagram chum.
Taking a leaf out of Vix book (wear, sleep, repeat) the next day I wore the
same skirt and boots, changing the jumper for a grey Jaeger cashmere one
bought in a sale over 12 years ago. My mustard tights were exchanged for scarlet ones.
Back home from shopping, the kettle went on and a cardigan,
we were frozen.
After sorting, washing and putting everything away I caught
up with blog land and the ladies over on What’s On your Workdesk Wednesday.
What a coincidence that I was wearing the sweater from Vix
at the same time she was wearing the coat we gave her some years
ago that had once belonged to Philip’s mum.
You can see the rest of her blog post here
Took Mum a bit of shopping today (Thursday).
We then masked up, called for a bag of chips and sat
in the car scoffing them while looking over the reservoir
up the road from us. We finished it off with a takeaway
hot chocolate before scuttling back off home like two
naughty school girls.
Talking of school girls. I’ve got a lovely blog post ready
for Friday Smiles with Annie tomorrow. I hope you’ll come back
to see what has made me a very proud auntie and is guaranteed to
lighten your heart.
Take care, keep smiling
Love
Lynn

I've been wearing my snow boots too, for the first time in years! Love your skirt and the wear, sleep, repeat thing you've done with it. That cardigan is gorgeous! As is Philip's Mum's coat worn by Vix. I had a giggle at the thought of you and your Mum scoffing chips in the car. What fun! Oh, dear, I'm quite peckish now :-) xxx
ReplyDeletedo you would love my boots they are so chunky. I kind of erm treat my self to two pairs of designer boots in the sale. Of course I lied to Paul, he doesn’t have a clue what women’s footwear cost.
ReplyDeleteYou look so cosy. We have just bought a heated carpet as we don’t have central heating over here.
So we either layer up or freeze. Keep safe
Wear:Sleep:Repeat reaches the North! I remember that jumper and it still looks fab, perfect with that skirt and those lovely snow boots.
ReplyDeleteHow weird that we were both wearing clothes we got from one another on the same day!
I had to giggle at the labels on your post Vix, Chips and Reservoir, I do sound like a classy bird (or a cheap date!) xxx
