Just another manic monday...



Well, I went back to Matalan at the weekend, after my last embarrassment.

Manager man wasn't there, or he might have been, perhaps he was just hiding from me. I figured it's like when you fall off a bike, you just gotta get back on.


Just to be safe I took my mum and 3 others. Safety in numbers.

Good job I went back mind you, the sale was in full swing, I went a bit mental. Starting with this Autumnish dress. The colours are just perfect for Autumn. It was half price at £9. And the blue beaded necklace was £3.

I later looked on their website and realised... Doh, I am a complete hussey! This is advertised as a tunic to be worn with jeans. Never mind, I like it as a dress and you'd have to be a 6ft goddess to wear it as a tunic anyhow.

Well done! I was actually wondering whether you'll go back to M. at the weekend. You clearly love the shop, just like I love TK Maxx... Nice finds!

That is not a tunic! LOL! Looks perfect as a dress on you :)

Agreed, it does look very long to be a tunic!
I liked your plan of taking friends with you - if you bump into the Mgr like that, you can all do the conga :)

Great finds! Cute outfit!

Oh, I think it's perfectly fine to wear this as a dress. It's not very high above your knees anyway, and I tend to like tunics to be a bit shorter when I'm wearing them over jeans.

Lovely colors for fall! Did the waistcoat come with the dress, or is it one of your own?
