Having recently, finally, come out of my all black wardrobe to embrace colour, fashion and life; I realised to needed to take a moment and look through all my clothes, see what needed to stay and what to go. Let's face it, even if you adore colour, you will always still have time for a little black dress in your closet.
My local Barnardos has done very well out of me in the past few weeks whilst I have been clearing out the excess black and bringing the colour in.
One place where I didn't need to have a clear out was in my shoe collection. I may not have worn colour on my body, but I damn sure wore it on my feet. So my first outfit of the day is a homage to the old me, with my favourite red shoes which I used to justify my outfits with "Look, see, I'm wearing colour, on my feet!"
This particular outfit was intended for this blog a couple of months ago, but after taking the photos it took me until now so work up the courage. So I look a lot more summery than the current weather would allow!

This outfit was planned for a lunch out with the girls. The top, my first non black and patterned purchase is from last season's Next summer collection. The dark blue jeans are from Very and the shoes are from Primark.
Clearly I don't know what I'm doing yet when it comes to taking photographs of myself and the clothes I'm wearing but hey, everyone has to start somewhere!
The main purpose of this post was to get the first one done, out of the way. I don't care what anyone says, the first time of doing anything isn't good.
So there you go. My first #ootd post. Photos in the wrong order, me having a slight panic attack mid way through writing the post, but frankly, I'm just glad it's here.
From here, the only way is up!
