Take it Off

Take it Off - an odd request from a blog about clothes, but there you go.

I am loving this track by Kesha and the video just makes me want to party! Powder, glitter, everywhere - so many colours!



Here is my version of what I'd want to be wearing if I suddenly foundd myself in this situation.

Wishing the Day Away

When I was little, I was told to be careful with my wishes. Things don't always turn out the way you thought they would. The most memorable example I was given was an overweight lady, wishing to be thin...got her wish when she was run over by a lorry. Horrific stuff to tell a child!

However, I was listening to this and I started thinking about the things one wishes for:



As I floated away on dreamy, wish related topics, I put together this outfit to reflect the feeling...

Here are a few other wish-related possibilities.

Love is All Around Us

No, not a cheesy 80s ballad, just a general feeling following my being given an award! 

Whoop whoop! Always a lovely thing to hear! Thanks so much to the witty and wonderful Bella Q!

I feel warm and fuzzy just thinking about it. That could be my chai tea talking, but I think it is a happy combination. I spent today overseeing a giant event for National Playday, involving over 200 kids, their parents, and various expenisve pieces of equipment...plus, we had a massive thunderstorm in the middle! I got drenched! SO appreciating the warm fuzzies for sure right now!

There follows a four-step program for transferring this loovverly award;

1. Say Thank you :) Show the love.

2. Blog about your shiny new award.

3. Pass this award onto other bloggers you adore!

I am passing the love onto a few blogs I enjoy, here we go:

Conformity

My day in the life of clothes:

So, I get up in the morning and throw on something smart, usually dark due to the dress code being 'super-smart and appropriate for public viewing' as I work in an office and deal with members of public (lucky me!)

I zoom home, tout suite, at lunchtime and change into black linen shorts and my scarlet staff t-shirt and trainers, my uniform for the sports coaching and kids crafts I work at in the afternoon.

By the time I get home, its about 6.30, time for dinner and I am hungry! I don't care what I am wearing so long as I can eat! I usually throw on pjs or something comfy just to slob about in.

Occasionally, I then change again and run straight out to go to a cafe and loll about drinking milkshakes in the sun or else try and get to the shops for a rummage or to meet someone.

Thus, there are a lot of clothes involved in my day, but not ones I would necessarily ever choose to wear!

Its got me thinking about uniforms and how they work. They prevent a united front, a force of equality. They also drown out any sign of actual personality or interest. They look business-like and efficient, but they can also be oppressing. They are generally practical...but who wants to have to be practical every single day?

So here is my 'throwing out the rulebook' outfit.

So yeah. Thats what I'm wearing to work tomorrow, in my head.
