Wardrobe Week

I know, I know.  It's been a while.

Unfortunately, the excuse is still the same as last time.  Work is CRAZY and I have been eating VERY badly.

Today's post is going to be a bit different, something I haven't blogged about before.  Clothes.  Yes, I know, I blogged about clothes before, but today's post is a bit more personal.

I often get compliments on the clothes I wear to work.  Lately, there has been a running joke thing with a lady at work about me being all matchy-matchy.  Every time I see her she has to look me up and down to see whether I'm matching.

I try quite hard to match and look 'put together'.  One thing that makes the work week bearable is looking forward to what I'm going to wear.  And if you look nice, then chances are you will feel nice.

I organise what I'm going to wear for the whole week on a Sunday.  That way I can iron if I need to and work out which bottoms I will wear - I have only a small collection of 'bottoms', but HEAPS of tops.

While I am always buying new clothes, I very rarely spend a lot of money on my clothes.  I work with children and don't see the point in spending heaps on clothes that are just going to be splashed with paint or marked texta.  Most of my clothes are bought from Target and Katies, with a bit of Portmans and Jacqui-E thrown in.  The jewellery I wear is almost exclusively from Lovisa, with some Katies and Target thrown in for good measure.

So here is a week in my wardrobe:
