The possibilities seem to be endless at the moment… shorts, long over-the-knee socks with funny leg-warmer thingys, broques… Well we’ll see if I get bold enough to try something non-traditional!!!

My outfit today felt like -10 points to be honest… I felt pretty sloppy. Think I need to start choosing my clothes the night before more often!
