SNUG


Comfort was definitely on today's clothing agenda.

Oversized jumper? Check.

Leggings? [that actually fit my lanky limbs?!] Check.

Unkempt hair? Definite check.

There are some days when, no matter how you might try, nothing will trump the need to feel cosy, covered up and completely comfortable.

Today was one of those days, and I was more than happy to succumb.

I have to mention these leggings, because for the life of me [or rather, for the last few months of my life] I haven't been able to find any that are long enough without breaking the bank.

As I mentioned in my post on shoe-troubles, brands that cater specifically to the slightly longer legged or larger footed tend to charge extortionate amounts as they know they're offering a unique service that, ultimately, we have to turn to.

Well I'm glad to say I've quelled the need to fork out my precious savings on such brands by finding these "Tall" leggings on the Next website - and for only £9. Mwahaaaa.

Stick it to the man.

I found out via twitter that the BINTM/handbag.com competition is now open until tomorrow, so if you haven't had a look yet you can do so here. No matter who you vote for, you'll be helping make one of us a very happy bunny, so please do take the time if you can!

Love your cardigan, looks so comfy and cozy :) xx

This is much better than my super snuggly outfit which pretty much involves giant fuzzy socks paired with sweat pants and a hoodie!

The mustard and grey together are great!

Voted for you! :)

Your shirt is such a lovely colour. It's nice to hear about another girl's troubles finding clothes to fit her extravagantly lengthed limbs! I buy mine from H&M and they're always a little bit too short, which is ok when I wear them with boots but looks awful if I try to wear them with flats. I will definitely check out Next now!

Hello, love the outfit. It's cosy, but also a kind of understated cool that I could never achieve!

By the way, I've been reading your blog for a while, but I've finally decided to be a talker (well, writer) not a lurker. Great blog by the way!
