I forgot how much i really do love this dress, even though in real life it's a lot brighter (maybe it's dull cos I'm wearing my coat?!). It's from H&M, i got it back in first year so I've really got the wear out of it!
If you follow me on Twitter you'll know that late last night i got a text from my tutor telling us we were going to be on the new show Gok Wan is doing. It turned out he was going to be featuring us or something and making us in to his 'gokettes'. How amazing?! However, it didn't go to plan. Thanks to the children from local schools protesting against tuition fees rising it didn't work out. Don't get me wrong, I'm all for the protests (if held correctly) but these kids were laughing and shouting and basically just wanted to skip school. So for health and safety Gok wasn't allowed out, and he actually ran past me. We did get filmed handing out flyer's, and they did film me for a bit (I'm thinking it's cos of the bright dress?!) i probably made a massive idiot out of myself but at least it'll be a laugh! It's always nice to do something different. We've been invited to the catwalk show on Friday so hopefully that will be better and less cold!
Speaking of cold, I'm currently sat here shivvering and i even have on my pjs, thick socks, and a massive jumper on. Plus the heating. I really just can't get warm at the mo! Really will not be surprised if the predicted snow happens this week.
If you follow my blog, and have ordered a rings/bracelets I'm hoping to get them sent Saturday at the latest, i really did want to post tomorrow but I've had broken tiles sent to me so I've had to order some more. I also wasn't in when my envelopes got delivered, so that's another i have to wait for. All the rings are made, just waiting to be sent. Bare with me, i haven't forgotten. I have you all in spread sheet waiting to be ticked off.
Ohh, I'm probably going to pop down to the Aussie Angel event on Saturday afternoon. Any Leeds ladies going along? Let me know!
That's such a shame about the event! But at least you get to go back! Love the dress, I'm such a yellow fan!

I love the dress. H&M clothing actually lasts a long time. There's a beautiful orange skirt in my wardrobe that I've now had for 6 years and it's still in very good condition.

ReplyDeleteGorgeous gal! Love that dress and coat combination, it's a lovely pop of colour for this mad weather (: So exciting about the whole Gok experience, you'll have to keep us updated on Friday! xxx
ReplyDeleteReally love this colour combination, it looks great against your hair as well :) H&M is probably the shop where I get most of my clothes as I think the quality is quite good considering how cheap it is!x
ReplyDeleteLove the dress! It looks amazing on you.
ReplyDeleteTell me about it. I know exactly what you mean about being cold. I've been freezing at home recently x
