An outfit for a day of shopping – trainers, knitted hat – bit of a bag lady look really!

 

Yesterday I spent many hours shopping, looking at all the lovely new spring collections and taking masses of photos of my favourite things.

Although it wasn’t that cold, it was wet and there’s no room for an umbrella when I’m dodging from store to store with arms full of bags, hence the GAP hat. As I’m also carrying a slight knee injury (which I’m trying to ignore) and knowing that I would be covering a lot of ground, I opted for trainers. The snood is less hassle than a scarf which can get caught in my headphones when I’m listening to my cool music (or would that really be Woman’s Hour?) A cross body bag is so much easier than a shoulder bag and the hearts on my New Look jumper add a splash of clashing colour to my trainers.

So that was that – it was warm and comfortable and it gave a slight nod to that well known, and much coveted, “bag lady trend” I think.

There are some lovely things in the stores right now…..
