I love playing dress up.  I’ve decided that its something we never really grow out of, only grow in to.No matter what the occasion I absolutely love piecing an outfit together, sometimes I give it lots of thought, other times I like to think effortlessly (polite word for those can’t be bovvered days!).  But one thing is certain, I absolutely love to feel and look my best.

Image conscious? Perhaps.  Fashion obsessed?  Absolutely.  Hey, its fun and I really believe that clothes and accessories are something to be celebrated.  I have said it before, that I feel how you present yourself is a total reflection of you.  It speaks a thousand words before you say one, and your outfits are like your uniform.

They don’t have to conform, they don’t even have to be ‘in trend’  they just have to be you.

One particular outfit got me thinking about this, this week.  It was the blue midi skirt and rose gold shoe combo.  Before leaving the house I suddenly thought, um am I a bit too dressy for work?  I even threw a pair of ‘dressed down’ shoes in the car just in case I couldn’t pluck up the courage to wear the outfit in full.  However, I got in the car and thought – no, I am absolutely going to wear this.  What is wrong with being dressy?  And what is wrong with wanting to getting a little glammed up?  It doesn’t have to be for a night out, you could just be popping to the shops but if it makes you feel good then do it.

Fashion is to be celebrated and to be appreciated.  It expresses you and I love that.  I makes us feel better, makes us feel good and makes us feel confident.  And I love that too.

Here this is a round up of a few of my favourite looks from the month.

So get your glad rags on and show the world what you are about.  Even if you are just popping out for a pint of milk!
