I wanna be a marshmallow gal

Home cinema

A casual outfit for Saturday night spent watching movies at a friend's house. Dug out this beloved jumper and cords:





Jumper: H&M


Tee: H&M


Cords: Dorothy Perkins


Shoes: Office

"History: it's just one f***ing thing after another"

Friday's outfit for work and then the local theatre to watch Alan Bennett's The History Boys, a fabulous show! Having seen the film I was interested to see how it works on stage and how they cast the actors, when the guys in the film made the roles and a name for themselves (James Corden, Dominic Cooper, Russel Tovey).


Have been wearing these trousers so much and finding new ways to wear them:





Necklace: New Look


Top: Mango


Trousers: Yours


Shoes: Office

Wild side



Cardigan: New Look

Tunic: Evans

Necklace: New Look

Bangles: Primark

Jeggings: New Look

Boots: Forever21

Yes Master!

What a busy couple of months it has been rehearsing for the panto and putting all my attitude into my Genie of the Ring character (not that it was very difficult to have attitude!). Saturday eventually arrived and us girls got all glittered up and ready for the shows: matinee and evening. I decided not to bare my midriff as no one wants to see all my wobbly bits and went for a traditional Punjabi suit of tunic and baggy trousers complete with massive false eyelashes and bangles galore!

The shows were a success and we're already thinking about next year . . .

V Day 2012



As I waded through the cards, chocolates and flowers from my admirers this morning I decided not to dress in full red, flower and heart print clothes and go for subtle. Check out my bargin cardigan (£6ish in the sale!) and new skinny minny trousers (surprisingly size 18 and stretchy):

She's my woman of gold and she's not very old



Life is very hectic at the moment what with Aladdin fast approaching and some other events in the pipelines that before I knew it Plus London was here! It was such a fun night: meeting up with bloggers, having a few drinks, a lot of laughs AND WINNING THE 1ST PRIZE IN THE RAFFLE! I was so shocked (possibly due to the alcohol) and really pleased as it was a year's supple of undies from Elomi lingerie. I got measured and was astounded by what size I apparently am! I was given my first free set (a lacy black combo) and am awaiting news of what comes next.


Major props go to Claire who organised the whole thing and did an amazing job! Well done girl!


Diana was there again taking some awesome pics so until they come out here's me wearing my skirt from the night and my new boots from Forever 21:
