New Outfit Post - Monochrome For A Date

Another day of full on karate for our son which means another date day for hubby & I :-)  Although we need to make the most of the next couple as after the middle of December when our son takes his 2nd Dan (& hopefully passes!) there's going to be a lot less training involved & will mean we're rushing back to make the mid-day pick up.  

Still for today we're cherishing our date day & following our normal pattern of a few errands first thing, it's off on a lazy lunch & trip to the cinema to see Interstellar.....hubby is really looking forward to it (me not so, but hey if it's fab bonus if not more pick & mix & a cheeky snooze for me ;-) )

Keeping things simple with a monochrome look teamed with some distressed skinny jeans.

I'm really excited about tonight too....off out to a bonfire!  Our village isn't having one this year but the next village is so we're walking with friends to that one & stopping on our way back for refreshments at the village pub....well it would be rude not to surely & we don't want to get dehydrated ;-)  Absolutely love bonfires not to mention writing your name in the air with sparklers....what can I say I'm a big kid at heart.  Anyone else play the game of trying to write all your family's names in the air before the sparkler goes out....no just me?!!

How about you, what are you up to today?  If you're off to a bonfire have fun & go on give the writing in the air a go ;-)

  1. Looking gorgeous for your date day, Jane. We had our bonfire night on Wednesday. We had friends over for fireworks, chilli and some wine. It was a gorgeous evening! I love sparklers too - definitely a big kid at heart! Lynne xx

  4. Lovely outfit, you can never go wrong with a bit of leopard! It's throwing it down here, so we may not get any bonfire action tonight :-( Fingers crossed for dry weather where you are!

  6. I just love halloween & bonfire night - and yes, sparkler writing is the norm here! But now they're finished, it's perfectly acceptable to get in full-on christmas mode, heh heh! Enjoy your date day :) x
