The long and short of it

Following on from my last post - a long necklace does wonders for a 5ft 2" gal like me on a frump day. Well I feel like it does anyway - which is all that counts I guess. Someone once told me as long as you feel good you'll exude happiness...

Distraction

Its frigging cold. When the weather's like this all I want to do is hermit at home in big baggy clothes, only getting up from the couch to eat. The mirror soon reminds me though that all those nights in with take outs and several bottles of wine weren't such a good idea and I really struggle with what to wear for leaving the house. Between tucking my muffin top into my jeans and contouring the shit out of my face to attempt to hide my prosthetic-like double chins, I always reach for the jewellery cabinet for help.

January means big. Big arms, big arse, big jewellery. I might look a bugger, but I feel better when I've got something heavy, bright or bonkers on me and I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one.

If I don't look like this when I'm older, I will have failed in life.

This is Iris Apfel. She's 91. And awesome. That is all.
