Not much to say for myself today, friends. I’ve changed the format of my post titles slightly so you can see what I wore when – so when I say I have some serious Monday blues, you won’t be thinking ‘it’s Tuesday girl! Get over it already!’. 

If you follow me on Twitter (and if you don’t, you should!) you’ll know that I had a mishap on the roads today, and that’s the crux of my sad face. A tyre blow out on the M1 and subsequent wait for The AA (who were fab by the way – I was back on the road within 15 mins) is not my idea of Monday fun. 

I found this quote on one of my very favourite websites, Clients From Hell:

“I hate blogs. Blogs are for angry people who are sitting at their computer with a glass of wine at midnight with nothing better to do. No companies use blogs anymore.”

And as I sit writing this at 11.37pm accompanied by the dregs of a glass and the wrapper from my comfort chocolate, I’m inclined to agree (not about the companies bit, though)! For your sake, dear followers, I hope your Monday was marginally better than mine. Feel free to boast, or lament, in the comments section below. 

Here’s to Tuesday! *clink*

Boomtown Rats springs to mind (tell me why…!) At least the AA got to you sharpish!
Love the outfit though, spesh the skirt!
I can’t relate to the quote though – I forget to be angry (yes, after a few angry tweets, I genuinely forget that I am angry at something!!) Hope your Tuesday is going smoothly! x

That skirt is amazing! I love the black block at the bottom, but I think I’m destined never to suit pleats!

And what a stressful Monday! I just want this week to be over already to be honest 🙁

At least the AA got out to you quickly! I waited 2 hours once… 🙁

My Monday was equally stressful, four hours of exams, in a stuffy room was not fun!
Happy Tuesday! x

I love those sandals – I had them in white last summer but sadly the sole of one of them snapped in half! Hope you’re Tuesday was road-mishap free 🙂 x

I love pleated skirts, although they are SUCH a pain to iron!

Gee, Jen, a blown tyre could have been much worse – Dangerous even! So I’m happy it was ‘only’ an inconvinience. I strangely have given up on the alcohol since I started blogging – somehow I feel a loosened tongue and commenting is not a very good idea 😉
Hope you had a better Tuesday! And btw, the outfit is lovely!

Oh Jen I love this – so simple and so pretty. The shoes are fab too!

How horrible about the car. It took me about 3 months to get back on the motorway after a similar thing happened to me.

That sucks about your car, glad you are safe though.

I love that skirt, so pretty, and love how you’ve dressed it down with a t-shirt. Perfect for this weather.

LOVE the outfit. The tee is so pretty and the colorblock skirt is fabulous. I can’t believe you found a pleated one. How great.
