I seem to have lost my shopping mojo recently, I’ve scoured
the charity shops over the past few weeks and to be honest I’ve been a bit
disappointed. I had these images of shops filled with unwanted Christmas gifts
with the labels still on and loads of lovely new handbags – sadly not. I have
managed to get a couple of tops, a lovely cream one with a bit of sparkle from
H&M (for a night out which actually involved cocktails!) and a black shiny
top with sparkly shoulders (for a 40th which included far too much
red wine) so I can’t complain too much. Maybe I’m actually shopped out? Have I
reached the point where I’ve got enough? No don’t be silly! I think it’s more
to do with the fact I’m half a stone heavier than I want to be. This might be
something to do with the nights out I’ve had and the subsequent carbohydrate
feasts the next day but I won’t bore you with my weight loss journey (did I really just
write that??)
Anyway, on a recent trip to the Cancer Research shop, I was
just browsing when I came across a lovely little black floaty dress and it was
in the sale, yes even charity shops have sales. Rather than thinking “I’ve got
loads of black dresses” off I went to try it on. It’s a really nice shape and
fairly flattering. And it came to me, my husband and I are off to a Bar Mitzvah
soon and I had my excuse to buy it. It was only £2.75 so it’s a bit of a steal.
I’ve never been to a Bar Mitzvah before so I have no idea whether my dress will
be right. The last time I went to a Jewish do I was massively over dressed but
I did kiss Gary Barlow! Lets hope this frock fits in a bit better and I get to
kiss another superstar! Xx
