It was 2 feels like -1 on Saturday morning at my mum’s (about 100km west of Brisbane) Brrrr. It would have been as cold that night at the restaurant as it’s on top of the Great Dividing Range. The days have been around 10 to 19 Celsius give or take (50-66 Fahrenheit I think) in Brisbane which is cold for us. And we were experiencing those temps through May which was unusual. We often hit 100 Fahrenheit or higher in summer so I feel you in that heat. 1 GreenTealael reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Decided I wasn’t going to wait for a special event any longer so dinner wth my hairdresser current & former stylist was it. New French inspired restaurant in a small country town. My hair looked way better later as we had our regular hair appointment before dinner. The skirt is amazing. Known as the doona skirt as there is a layer of wadding inside. Still didn’t keep me warm enough though lol. OMG soooo cool. Totally get just having to take that outfit out for a night - whatever. Hope you had a fabulous time. 1 GreenTealael reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Arabesque 7,414 Posted July 3, 2022 Thanks @kristieshannon. I spied it last summer but decided it against it. It was on sale (40% off 🎉🎉) last week & the only skirt & top left were in my size. Obviously always meant to be mine so it now lives in my wardrobe. Love you in that blue. And congrats on commencing ‘official boyfriend’ status. So happy for you. 2 GreenTealael and Merill reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Arabesque 7,414 Posted July 6, 2022 This is a skirt not a dress. Let the giggles begin. Yep, the challenge of being short. I know a few of you will understand. A ribbed wool tube skirt at 50% off I was not giving up so when the desire is strong a creative solution must be found. 😁 Congrats on your weight loss so far @Mariann812. Whoo hoo! Looking forward to seeing more of your pxts. 5 2 DaisyChainOz, BayougirlMrsS, STLoser and 4 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
