Polka dots & stripes

 
outfit 1 - skirt: pop boutique, jumper: h by henry holland at debenhams (currently half price in the sale, snap it up now!)
outfit 2 - dress: h&m, cardigan: m&s

Just two recent outfits - how complimentary to each other are they though? My wardrobe is like a capsule wardrobe really, everything can mix and match because I like to choose patterns and colours that go together. Some might say this is 'boring', but I know what I like and buying things that go together makes more sense money-wise! I used to impulse buy things that I could only wear with one other thing and then not have a clue what else to wear it with. Now I am much more sensible with what I buy. Plus I think it's nice to have a signature style. 

Less than a week to go until my 10K race...I meant to get out for a run yesterday but I came down with a really bad sore throat and aches all over and literally could not move from the settee. I ended up watching Frasier, Sunday brunch and 3 episodes of the Big bang theory because I could NOT move to even change the channel. Luckily it wasn't such a bad channel to be stuck on! Anyway, having a rest day was a good idea and I took today easy in work as tomorrow I am going to London for a CILIP branch & group forum meeting, exciting! I felt so grown up when booking my train tickets and selecting 'business' as my reason for travel. I swear I am still a 17 year old inside but don't tell anyone, sssh! 

Also: how the hell is it May tomorrow?!
