So I ended up wearing two outfits to the wedding! :D No really. It was a looong day and there were practically two different 'events', the day party and a disco in the evening (with even more guests). I wore the b&w top to the day bit and changed into the pink one for the night. Thank you everyone who helped me to decide! :P

What not to wear - help me to decide
Last weekend I was trying out outfits for the upcoming wedding. I had to dismiss the skirt options because a) I'm going to be taking pictures and need to be able to crouch and what not, and b) because they all looked ridiculous on me. So I've definitely decided on these black wide-legged trousers. Now I'll just need to decide what to wear on top. And because of various reasons it looks like I won't have time to go shopping for anything new, I think the decision will have to come down to one of these four options.
What do you think? Are any of them any good?

I wore a dress (newsflash!) in the hopes that it would distract from the dirty hair... I've had this dress for about two or three years and it's never felt 'right'. This morning I had a huge 'why is everything in my wardrobe too colourful and flowery'-crisis and my eyes were drawn to the calming greyness of the dress....

In my tired state I sort of thought I looked like a regular person in the morning. Evidence would show that wasn't the case... And to add insult to injury, yesterday I DID have genuinely nice clothes on, but I was so tired when I got home that I took them off before I remembered to take a picture. Damnit...

Sleepless nights and colour-coded wardrobes
For some reason I couldn't get to sleep last night. I spent the whole night tossing and turning and getting up every hour to go observe the progress on the huge (human-size, seriously!) web, which a monster spider was working on outside our kitchen door (fixing of which, by the way, has finally been finished - I think). It was sort of fascinating and repulsive at the same time. Anyways, feel kind of out of it today. Not so much sleepy, but that sort of tired hysteria just bubbling under.
The weekend itself was rather nice. On Saturday I didn't do anything, as planned. Which was lovely, and very much needed. Sunday was spent cleaning since I realised this was pretty much the last weekend we'd get a change to clean before going on holiday Friday next week (which, by the way, is my birthday :P), as next weekend we'll be in Saffron Walden.
As a part of Sunday's cleaning operation I attempted to organise my wardrobe by colour. It didn't really work that well since everything I own seems to be muti-coloured, and -patterned. Umm. What it does show quite clearly is that I don't own that many pink clothes! And almost none white. Ever since I had to downgrade from my old walk-in-wardrobe to one rail and chest of drawers, I have been forced to do some heavy
editing. So, even if my wardrobe is a lot smaller these days, and a cacophony of patterns, it's somehow more functional than before (which doesn't mean I wouldn't miss my old walk-in-wardrobe dearly).
It's lovely and sunny today. So sunny in fact that I was lured into walking to work from Waterloo. A sunny walk sure beats the tube, even if it takes a bit longer. Here's hoping the sun will stay with us and make this week a more positive one than the last.

Diva's ahoy!
Well, health wise the weekend was a total washout. I really should stop having these colds, it's such a waste of time. Although having said that, I did manage to get quite a lot done. After a fever-based epiphany on Friday I certainly made the most of being stuck inside all weekend and sitting by the computer with woolly socks on and hot lemon at hand. On the train home from work on Friday I had this idea and a flash of inspiration, and by the same evening I had a domain and hosting sorted. During Saturday and Sunday I pretty much built the site up from scratch, with technical help from Paul and handwriting help from Sooz (thanks guys!). And despite there being a few little kinks to straighten out, it’s now live.
So what is it, you may ask. Well, as some of you may have gathered I quite like clothes, and playing dress-up in general. I'm always on the lookout for inspiration and tips from magazines and online resources and I follow a lot of style and fashion blogs. What I've struggled to find though, are any style blogs that would cater for us curvier girls as well. And on Friday something just snapped and I decided that if it isn't out there, I will have to put it out there. Thus came the idea for the DIVA Look Book. I'm stupidly excited about it, which is kind of weird as on Thursday the whole concept had never even crossed my mind! I have no idea where I'll find the time for it (seeing as I have another idea, which has been brewing for much longer, in the works as well), but I will try my darnest to keep updating it on regular basis. And hopefully it will eventually work as a source of inspiration for a lot of girls out there, what ever size they may be. So go ahead and have a snoop around. There's obviously not much content up yet, but I'll try to keep posting regular features on almost daily basis. Do share any ideas you might have as well, that would be much appreciated! Actually, I was thinking about putting up a little goodie bag contest on Friday in order to get wishes and suggestions from potential readers, so you might want to keep an eye out for that.

Sales shopping cheer
Since yesterday's shopping trip went spectacularly wrong thanks to our car deciding not to co-operate, I decided to have another go today and headed to Richmond for some sales shopping cheer (while S has been out all day trying to part-exchange the car for something more reliable). And what a 'successful' trip it turned out to be! :D
I got two pairs of lovely shoes. The Monsoon ones I got with a 25% discount and the Oasis ones with a 50% discount. While the sun is trying to suggest that proper spring might finally be here, I'm determined to try to break my trainer-habit and wear some prettier shoes for work. It's hard though as I'm always half asleep in the morning and have to run to catch the train etc. so I tend to just pull on what seems easiest and feels comfiest. But surely I can manage to wear pretty shoes for at least a couple of days a week if I really put my mind to it!
Laura Ashley had a mid season sale with lots of stuff marked as 50% off. I really had to show some restrain not to buy everything in there... Got a lovely summery bag, cute cushions for our office chairs (now all I need is cute office chairs... erm) and a necklace which for some reason I found irresistible. Oh and this lovely little glass drawer thing for my earrings and stuff. You'll probably see it later on as I'm going to do a bedroom-y entry at some point.
All in all I'm quite pleased with all my bargains. Now I'll just have to wait and see whether S comes home with a 'bargain' of his own...

Muodin huipulla
No just. Valitsipa Susanna tosi hyvän päivän tämän haasteen heittämiseen... Voi elämä. :DTehtävänanto: Kerron mitä minulla on päälläni, kun saan tämän haasteen. Tämän jälkeen valitsen seuraavat viisi ihmistä, jotka haastan tekemään saman perästä. Heidän tulee myös kirjoittaa nämä säännöt merkintäänsä. Linkitän haastamani ihmiset tämän merkinnän loppuun ja käyn ilmoittamassa heidän kommenttilaatikkoihinsa haasteesta ja tästä merkinnästä.
Joopa. Eli asuni täällä Vantaan fashion centraalissä tänään on musta yöpaita yhdistettynä pinkkeihin pyjamahousuihin. Että sellasta. :P Vaikka täytynee tunnustaa että ei tämä nyt niin harvinainen asu ole kotona työskennellessä...
Nakkaan tämän eteenpäin ainoastaan Jennille, kun en ketään muutakaan keksi jolla en olisi jo haastetta nähnyt...

The time of my life....
I'm so in love with my new gold shoes. <3 They're like the third pair that I've gotten 'for the wedding'. Erm... But I do think these ones are it! They're just like in Dirty Dancing aren't they! Now we'll just have to start practising the dance I think. I shall include an example below for Stu to have nightmares about. :PI can't believe the wedding is next week. Yikes. I'm sure there must be something huge and fundamentally important that I've forgotten to do. Hmm. I did order my bouquet today, that's something right. Oh and I started compiling a playlist for the reception as well, I currently have about 13 hours of music on it and need to cut it down to about 8. Quite daunting. Oh well, can't worry about that sort of stuff now, I've got my gold shoes on. :D
Also, as promised, I updated the wedding blog with a little write-up about the Hen Night happenings. We did have a wicked time! :D

Carrie Bradshaw eat your heart out
I've got two men snoring on the sofa. I took a picture, but I think it would be a bit cruel to put it up on the internet. :PIn the meanwhile, I'm entertaining myself with eBay (again). So I'm not complaining really. :D I'm waiting for one auction to end and also trying to will my own items to sell.
I just realised I hadn't yet shared the latest development on the dressing room front! While I'm waiting until we move back to England until I get some of these (ingenious!), I decided to do the next best thing for now. So, I printed out pictures of the shoes I have in boxes and stuck them on them, just to make life a little bit easier. And more organised. And more pretty. And more like sex & the city. No but seriously, I think I'm going to move into my new closet. It's so lovely.
I had like two drinks tonight and I got so very tired at around 10pm, but now what with it being 3.30am I'm wide awake of course. Figures. I might go and try squeeze myself on the sofa to watch the episode of ER I recorded the other day. Not completely sure if I'll be able to hear anything over the synchronised snoring however.

I feel like Mariah Carey
I went to pick up this small packet from the post office today. Inside was a little box that said Tiffany & co. and inside that a little pouch with the same logo. I got into a bit of a panic about my eBay habits getting out of hand right then. Especially with S looking suspiciously on. It turned out that inside the pouch was this little necklace (with again, the same logo) that I did indeed get from eBay. However, as far as it being an authentic Tiffany necklace goes, I paid all of 90p for it. :D Surely I can at least pretend it's real? :P
The Easter break was very pleasant and most of all, productive. I organised most of our closets and threw out so much useless crap it's not even real. It's crazy how much shit you carry with you from house to house without ever really taking a proper look at it. I also sold some clothes and stuff on eBay, which makes me feel a bit better about spending so much time on there lately. :)
And then I did something radical. I moved all my clothes into the walk-in-wardrobe off the guest room, previously home to random crap and tools etc. Now that I've done it, I can't for the life of me understand why I didn't do this earlier! It's so cool, I feel like Mariah Carey or someone. :D I can actually access my clothes and have my shoes and everything in one place. And since I also organised the guestroom, and rescued the beauty desk from underneath all the crap, what I have now is effectively a dressing room. Ha. There's still some random boxes, bedding and sheets etc. in the wardrobe, but I'll soon find a new home for those. :P The problem of course is that there's no going back now. The next house will have to have a walk-in-wardrobe, anything less just won't do...
