Thanks for all your lovely words in response to my last post – I appreciate each and every one of you who visits and comments on the blog! I’m pleased to report I was feeling much more like my usual self yesterday – It’s amazing what I bit of positive thinking can do. I put a lot of the tips into action, including wearing a nice colourful outfit. Fi asked to see a picture, so here you go…
Here’s a better look at the dress. I love anything with flowers on. I seriously must have about 15 flowery dresses. Unfortunately most of them aren’t suitable for work! Sorry for the lack of a full length photo, I totally forgot to take one until I was actually in my car.
I decided to keep the ‘bright and colourful’ theme going today, with this turquoise top.
When I was looking through my wardrobe I noticed how many grey and black clothes I have. I going to make a conscious effort to start buying more colourful things from now on – it really made a difference to my mood!
Have you tested this out yet? Send me a picture of you in a bright, colourful or feel-good outfit and I’ll post it on the blog!
Has anyone got any exciting plans for the weekend? I’m hoping to fit a quick run or a bike ride in tomorrow morning, and then I’m meeting up with some old university friends for the day and evening. Oh, and at some point I need to turn this into something that doesn’t resemble a junk yard…
But for now, it’s Friday evening and I have a glass of wine calling my name. Have a lovely weekend everyone!





I <3333 flowery dresses, too!

I’m glad to know my room isn’t the only one scattered with work out clothes and yoga mats

Oh my goodness you are so so beautiful!! I loved seeing the pictures of you in the bright and lovely clothing! It’s so true that a little color or pattern can completely lift your mood! I notice that I wear quite a bit of black and gray too! Now that it’s spring, I’m going to put together more fun and light outfits. THings that feel fresh and uplifting! I’m with you on the cleaning front- got to get my apartment in order!!
Have a great day!

Hey, your room looks like mine! haha. Well, before this morning’s cleaning mission, at least
Glad I’m not alone.
Love the shirt, too. You’re gorgeous! And I’ve noticed whenever I wear bright colors I am rather upbeat – I tend to be optimistic anyways, but when I’m confident in how I look it’s even more-so
Have a great day!
