Decided to do a Trinny & Susannah on myself ... so left Zoo at the grandparents, dusted off my wallet and went to Brent Cross. Got there before the shops opened!! Walked around the mall for ten minutes, took a deep breath and dived in. They would have been proud of me ... stuck to the colours and shapes that suited me ... if they felt less than 150% perfect I put them back. After managing to buy two suits, two shirts, a coat and two camisoles I got brave and sauntered into one of those shops that I hadn't been to since I was a twenty something. And I was pleasantly surprised and left with a blouse and a dress.
I was so proud of my accomplicements that I boasted to Dad and Vertigo. Told them what I had bought and asked them how much I had spent. Dad came back with a ridiculous £75. Come on Dad .. this is Brent Cross not Oxfam!! Vertigo pipped in with £100. When I looked at her with amazement and told her the real price £230, which I was personally impressed with, (I mean Trinny & Susannah normally have £2k to spend on their victims!), she replied ... "yeah ... but you didn't ask me how much I thought they cost, you asked how much I think you spent!!" She does have a point .. my middle name could be Ebenezer!!
Anyhow ... fresh from my success with my wardrobe decided to give the old blog the works too. Now think I need to find a funky new title for my blog. Any ideas??
