In my cup: Japanese cherry tea.

Well that was quick! Wifey would be gone all day (actually has just left for a shopping day in Leicester), and then would come back saying she couldn't find anything she likes.

So is the new kit going to be on parade tonight?

Millicano Wholebean Instant in my mug.

I used to be like your wife when I was 10kg heavier, but now almost everything fits me and looks good as well. I told my friend who was with me that I needed to gain some weight, so I won't be tempted to buy everything I try on But I'm going back, we just came home for lunch and grocery shopping

Tonight I'll either wear the prettiest dress I bought today if I can find some shoes to go with it, or the black linen pants with one of my new t-shirts.

I'll have to bring a bottle of water with me this time though, I was getting dehydrated.

Finally! My nr 2 for the day! With a dash of some brown alcoholic beverage, liqueur, I believe it is called.



Yesterday I was spoiling for a Starbucks Mocha and Cheese Cake but my friends deserted me one by one by evening invoking all sorts of natural and family disasters.



omg, nom, nom, nom, nom, nom, nom

I stand chastised but unrepentant.

You did very well for yourself! And... as you've already proven yourself a good photographer, can we please see a photo in your new soap?

I don't know what this song is about (I don't listen to the words. I usually don't understand them anyway, I just like what I hear...I think it is from series Angel?)

Leggings (on the proper forms) is one of the best things a fashion could invent. I think it is a comeback from my youth the beginning of 1990s.

People either hate or love leggings, I happen to love them They can really complete an outfit! But I disagree with what you said about the proper forms (that is, if you're taken about a woman's shape). Leggings look good on everybody, you just have to find the right length for your body type.

OK then, since you asked so nicely (and because I had already photographed them to show to my sister tomorrow). But I'm not going to be in the photo's, that's too much work.

In my cup: water. No luck at the shoe shops.

Maybe I misunderstand what leggings is?

Please correct me if I am wrong I think leggings look like that:







The rest in my opinion is a lack of taste. They have no idea how to dress up properly. They put on what they know is fashionable, regardless how ridiculous they look. The only thing that can help these legs are a lifetime of exercise instead of a lifetime of McDonald.

Yes, those are all leggings. OK, I stand corrected. Everyone within a normal weight range (or slightly overweight, I've seen women pull it off!) can wear a legging. The most important rule with leggings: they are NOT pants, and should not be worn as pants. Your dress/tunic/... should at least cover your bum, and personally I think a dress at mid-tigh is minimum length for leggings.

I don't have legs like those women in the first picture (they are not legs, but sticks ), but I still feel comfortable in leggings.

Perhaps we need a "What's in your wardrobe?" thread

In my cup? Nothing at the moment.

You do have a taste

You would be very surprised to see British girls in my college.
