Hooray! the pohutakawas are in blossom, there's Christmas music and decor in the shops, and (my favourite) warmer weather.It is a bit silly to have so many parties and get-togethers over just a short period but ... oh well!
I recently spent an afternoon at home trying on different Dressy outfits and seeing which worked, which didn't, and what was suitable for each event.
A few months ago I'd bought some shapewear (think of it as smoothing-out rather than sucking-in) plus made a real effort to maintain my weight over winter, rather than let it creep up. So I was very pleased to try on hardly-ever worn dresses and find they fitted.
One's a gorgeous long pink dress I've had for at least ten years; it's so simple and timeless it can be dressed up or down. Love that versatility!
Another is a Little Black Dress whose original price tag was well beyond me, but it was dramatically reduced in the sales. I've worn it on several special occasions and, with varied accessories, it looks different each time.
That's why accessories are very useful and worth buying.
The trouble with weddings is that photos are taken ... ensuring everyone can remember what you wore!
So for a family wedding in April, a new dress is required and before I'd really started looking, I found it! I was browsing in a local shops, tried on a dress and was absolutely stunned at how good I looked in it - uh oh! when it makes you look that good ... it's a must-have!
Please take a moment to have a look at my new website - the address is the same, but a different design; far simpler for me to update now.
Wishing you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year; I hope you enjoy the celebrations, the weather and some relaxation time.
Margaret
