How to organise a week of clothes.

So last time I talked about clothes, I told you about how I was in a rut. I was wearing the same thing all the time. So since then I have managed to mix things up- well on the week days anyway. Week ends I am still firmly in the "active wear whoops I forgot to have a shower and there is no point because it is nearly time to put my pyjamas on so why bother" frame of mind.

I would call this a grown up dress. Not overly practical in my line of work. I found this on ASOS and it was under $100.

I'm not sure about you but week mornings are hectic. Some mornings after I exercise I have 25 minutes to get my self ready, put my make up on, wake up my daughter, feed my animals and make breakfast. There is no time to stand in the shower and decided what I will wear. So as much as I hate to admit it- I plan my outfits roughly a week in advance. This is what I do.

1. Plan what my exercise routine will be. At this stage it is Monday, Wednesday and Friday's are a spin class. This means I will be home at 7- so I have 30 mins to get ready. Tuesday and Thursdays I swim. This means I will be home by 6:30 but it also means I will have to wash my hair. This is a process- that takes a bloody long time. 

This is more what I would wear. Stripes dress it up- and pants are practical.

2. Check the weather for the week. At the moment it is Winter and where I work it gets really, really cold. So I work out what will suit the weather. This week is going to be bloody freezing and wet- so all crappy. This means I will have to wear lots of layers- thick socks under boots, singlets, fleecy stockings- then I can wear "normal" clothes and a coat. Also if it wet this means I will wear my hair up- because it will just go frizzy.

3. Work out what you have on for the week. I have duty on a Tuesday so I walk around so comfy shoes are in order. Thursday and Fridays I teach the least, but I do lots of walking around, but as I'm not teaching it also means I won't be doing any work where there is a chance I might have to climb under tables, or move stuff so I can wear dresses.  I also have two meetings this week with important people so I will pull out my " I'm a teacher who is also a member of the Board so I am very grown up dress". I also see if I'm going out after work- so my outfit can go from school to work.

This would be my Friday look. Same pants as with the stripes but I black t-shirt. I would have a singlet underneath and thick socks with some boots. I would also have either a denim jacket or a long line cardy. Also throw on a scarf for some colour.

4. Go on the internet and get some outfit ideas. This can come from Pinterest, magazine sites, wherever. You can look for things you already have and see what you can mix them up with.

Now I am not that organised that I write down my outfits, but I have a good visual image, so come the morning all I need to do is have my shower and then grab my outfit. 

Done, done and DONE.

Game of Thrones Season 6 Episode 6. With Spoilers.

I forgot to blog about the last episode of Game of Thrones. There is a very good reason for that. Because it was very, very forget-able. And not just because Jon Snow did not appear in the episode.  This episode left me feeling a little sad. Because it was crap. I felt like it was really beginning to show that the books have run out. But luckily I have watched this weeks episode and we are back on track. Especially the bit when..... JOKING! You won't get any spoilers until at least Thursday.

Act 1. The poor love is now in charge of dragging bloody Bran, now that poor Hodor came to an untimely end holding the door. She gets attack by the bloody white walkers, but then a man on a horse comes up and saves them. Now just between you and me I really think Bran would want to start doing something pretty special because he is becoming a bit of a dead weight. All he does is dream weird stuff and he is just causing trouble left, right and centre.

Act 2. Sam and Gilly and little Sam are in a carriage and are going to Sam's parents house. Meeting the in laws never goes well, especially when you have eloped and you find out they live in a really big castle. I am starting to question why poor Sam wanted to live with Jon Snow. Oh hang on- I just answered my own question. Needless to say- Sam's mum and sister are ace and his dad is mean, hates Widlings and the only thing he hates more than Wildlings is Sam. Sam gets mad and steals his dad's sword and runs off with Gilly. And Sam's dad is in so much trouble because Sam's mum stormed off. 

Sam's house. Told you he is rich

Act 3. Margaery has decided she has found God which stops her from having to do the walk of shame. I'm sure you could hear men everywhere crying over that one, because they thought they were going to see her naked. She then convinces her little King husband to find God as well. He agrees even though Margaery now has to wear really ugly clothes, but at least they didn't cut her hair.

Act 4 Arya is at the play again and is getting ready to poison the lady and then she decides she likes the lady, and she is Arya Stark and not the girl with no name and she decides to no longer be an assassin and finds her sword. The girl who has been mean to her, asks the man who looks like Jesus if she can kill Arya and he says " Sure- why not'. 

Act 5 This bit is weird. This is where Marg is meant to do her nudey run but insteads tells everyone that she has found God. Jamie Lannister has finally got to turn up on his white horse and rides up the stairs but then he finds out they don't want saving and then he has to ride down the bloody stairs again. He is pissed. So is the little King who than banishes Uncle/Dad Jamie.

Jamie the King Slayer looking rather handsome in his white horse.

Act 6- Sersi is quite angry and is finally realising that maybe her parenting skills where not on point. She gives Jamie a speech about going to find a wet fish and steal their Castle. Then they kiss and cuddle like no brother and sister ever should. (if you know what I mean).

Act 7 - Bran finally wakes up and the guy on the horse whips of his scarf and ....... I have no idea who it is but apparently it is his Uncle who we met in Season 1.

Act 8- We haven't had any bad CGI for a while- so here is the chance. Everyones favourite Mother of Dragons is walking with all her people  (well they are walking she is on a white horse- just like Jamies )and then she sees the wind and realises it's her dragon. She walks off and then comes back in on her dragon and gives a talk about how she is the Queen and blah, blah, blah. They cheer. Because of course they do. She is on a freaking dragon. Who is going to disagree with her.

Thats the end. No Jon Snow. 

So here is a pic to tide you over.
