I never fail to find it weird how September always brings that back to school feeling, no matter how many years it’s been since you went to school. For me part of that back to school feeling is the urge to have a whole load of shiny new kit. Late August was always about shopping.

So, we made it through a whole year! This time last year we were celebrating the end of an era as Mr LLL had been made redundant and we were planning to attempt to make it work with both of us self-employed. Against all the odds we’ve made it through a full year, and last

I had to get dressed in appropriate clothing for meeting strangers in a professional capacity this week. Most of my business is done virtually, which means it is absolutely fine for me to send emails and conduct business calls in my gym kit, or whatever Summer frock I happen to be wearing at the time.

Srsly, I have nothing to wear. Ok, that’s not strictly true, I have lots to wear, I’m wearing some of it now. I really am generally having one of those hissy fits that ends in all your clothes being strewn around the floor, though. I have a wardrobe full of clothes, but right now I

Today’s outfit was a bit of an experiment. Honestly, I’m not entirely sure it worked, but lets run with it. I love my full, flouncy, 50s skirts, and I pretty much always wear them with fitted tops. It suits my shape as I have a small waist, but wide shoulders and hips. However, I keep
